Cosy place, yummy food

This bar is separated into 3 sections. At the front you can play table football or pool, in the middle you can sit at tables or on sofas and sip well made cocktails or at the back, near the kitchen and taste their yummy home cooked food.
The menu changes regularly and the staff are always happy to explain what things are. There are veggie alternatives but not that many. Meatys will love their selection of cured meats.
This is a lovely place for a first date as it is always busy, and if you run out of conversation you can always play a game.
One thing that people may not like is the fact that all the tables are crammed in quite tightly, I think that it adds to the atmosphere but it's not to everyone’s taste.

Don't spin!

If you're one of those people who loves spinning some handles and knocking a tiny wooden ball about (and who isn't) Bar Kick is a great place to go.
Situated in Shoreditch, your nearest tubes are either Old Street or Liverpool Street.
There are about 8 table football tables and they do get very busy. I think you can book them in advance though which is great if you know when you're going.

Table Football and great food

One of my favourite bars in London.
Cheap drink during happy hour, Table Football if that is your sort of thing. The food is really good and the staff and patrons are very friendly. Very relaxed, easy going place for a drink. Would highly recommend Bar Kick if you are in the shoreditch area.

Then this is the pub to visit. Not too expensive but the games can go fast if you are any good at playing. The crowd is OK for Shoreditch and can get quite busy at weekends.

Bar Kick

As expected
Good enough little place with a few table football games. I found the cork balls annoying as they are light and bouncy. I can only think it's for safety, but pool balls are allowed in pubs? It gets busy but it's a reasonably size with a bit of room by the bar. Best to get in early and get a good spot for a few games of foosball with friends. I prefer the location and crowd of the Exmouth market Cafe kick, went I visited this one was full of-up-themselves blokes who frequent Shoreditch and Old street areas.
