This bar is great. But I have a question: WHY do all of the staff have mullets? All of them. Even the women. Strange.

But I love the staff here. They make me giggle and sing silly songs and have fun while I’m waiting for my friend Chris. He is always later than me which is a very rare thing. They make waiting fun.

The bar is tiny, so it’s always packed and you’d have to get here at midday to bag a seat for the evening. But no there’s no smoking inside this doesn’t seem to bother so much as I pop out every hour.

You’ll have fun here. You’ll end up talking to randoms and listening to their FANTASTIC jukebox (though if you get here late don’t waste your money - your songs won’t get played in time.)

You’ll even come out thinking that mullets are pretty cool. But that’s a good sign of how drunk you are.

A fantastic little bar on two floors. Tucked in a little alley just off Oxford Street. This bar is no frills but ticks all the boxes for character and great beer. Deco is over the top and piled on all over the place. Bar staff are edgy and very friendly which is what counts in my books.

Also the worst toilets in the whole of the UK. No one minds though and it’s always a character feature and speaking point.

The duke box is the best too.

bradleys is a small place just off oxford street, that surpringly may make you feel you are not in london central at all.
it is true that is always packed, but it is also a sound place to meet people, as the crowd is very friendly. it is frequented by spaniards, but i reckon the majority are english guys. maybe because it is so sanish that the spanish don't want to go whatsoever, but, as i said, some do.
the staff is very friendly and there are plenty of wines to drink away. if you are lucky enough to find a table you might well have a bottle and spend a good time. if you do not find a table, take off your drinks and participate of the right good spanish habit of getting wasted in the street.
i would define it as a sound chance to get away from oxford street without stepping away if you plan your night around

Small pub/bar on two floors. Always packed.
Great little haunt if you don't mind standing and rubbing shoulders with your neighbours.
Good wine selection and great jukebox.
In the heart of the West End but tucked away from the main drag.
