weather = bank hol

Absolutely! The best ones are the white rings with the green 'stone'.

how dare you!

i challenge you to a duel....

Do any Londoners know what the Big Chill Bar is like? Thinking about popping along at some point over the weekend.

i'll bring the tables

your going down sucka

Nice, but fairly small, and gets packed. Can sit outside if the weathers nice and watch the hoxton/shoreditch weirdos go past

There's a place called Café 1001 about 5metres down the street from it which is nice too if you decide big chill is too busy.

Absolutely great bar Helen, you should definitely go. It's become a local as it's about 30 seconds walk from my girlfriend's.

Everyone pours out onto the streets as well when the weather is good.

Like me?

Great, thanks. I'm not really up on my London bars yet and want to start improving my knowledge. Any more recommendations?

Bar Music Hall on Curtain Road in Shoreditch is pretty cool. And Vibe Bar round the corner from the Big Chill is good too, loads of outdoor seating.

Also, the Big Chill House in Kings Cross is good, it's just down the road from the station, next to the Thameslink entrance.

Thank you! I think we might have to spend a beery afternoon/evening around those parts.

No worries!

Yeah, around Bethal Green Road/Brick Lane/Shoreditch/Old Street there's loads of places to choose from.

only place i've ever been in, or is that remember being in...anyway, is the 'Elbow Rooms' in Islington... my mate dragged me there a few times - don't EVER buy 2 double Vodkas and redbull there. Unless u earn the same as the GDP of Brazil.

aka The Crack House

I love it in there, shame you always have to queue these days


Ziegfried Von Underbellys on Hoxton Square is alright,

for a pub I really like The Reliance on Old Street

Medicine Bar is also good and has a wicked little loft bit and a club downstairs

worst bar round there is Traffik, steer clear

Excellent! Roll on Sunday afternoon.

or just get a load of take out booze and sit on the grass in Hoxton Square with all the other Russel Brandalikes

i will be down the medal aswell for a few pints.

We'll probably end up getting no further than our own roof.
