Review of Madame JoJos

Rockabilly fun 
Have only been here once... but it was a great night. Went on the night where they play old style music dating back to the flapper days. Very refreshing to dance to this kind of stuff. Young good looking crowd although it go a bit messy as the night progressed. Definately check for events and go here for something very different.

Review of Two Floors

Bohemian and Trendy 
I always like the music here and the fact that it goes til the early hours, means you can hang around long enough to enjoy it. A fun and trendy place.. but damn expensive.

Review of Bricklayers Arms

Old faithful
This is a really down to earth bar that attracts a usually cool 20 something crowd. A good option on the Hoxton scene, makes for a decent night out.

Review of Tricycle Cinema

Kilburn oasis
This place is always playing interesting movies. Some too obscure to mention. But if theres one you like the sound of, go here. The cinema itself is big and comfortable and the crowd are genuine people... no annoying teenagers with popcorn here. The prices are excellent, making for an all round great local institution.

Review of Roses

Cute
I like the way this place tries hard with its tableclothes and settings. Theres a mid-week crowd here from stragglers to eccentric old women... but everyone is friendly. Great Polish food.

Review of The Hawley Arms
18 Apr 08, 12:20
Very cool
I think this place used to be a bit of a biker hangout... but these days its one of Londons best known hip hang outs. Forget the fire... this place is still a picture postcard image of Londons current rock scene.

A bit better than some
Theres an old bohemian feel here with plenty of interesting people about. Its small and cozy and has a bit more atmos than other pubs in the area.

Review of Lamb and Flag

Work drinks only
Squeeze your way in here with the West end after work crowd and enjoy the friendly ambience. Used to be called the "bucket of blood". Interesting.

Review of Bradleys Spanish Bar
18 Apr 08, 12:12
Small and Charming
The decor might be a bit shabby and dimly lit.. but I actually find it quite small and charming. The alcoves and velvet seats make it quie eccentric and theres plenty of spanish influence for a good night out.

Review of McGovern Tavern

Another Irish pub 
The Irish settled in this area years ago and their legacy is left in the strong of run down Irish pubs along this route. This pub is no different to the others... a bit dark... and lifeless patrons.
