The Lost and Found

Greek Street cocktail bar whose dedication to theme gives them a little edge.

Bower’s Tap

This big chain is getting in on the craft beer world. And it’s getting it right.

Marvin’s Pizza Parlour

What do Motown and pizza have in common? Probably not much apart from this bar.

Mr Nobody

A mellow cocktail bar with a handful of beers you don’t see everywhere.

Baht’ap

A refurbed pub that in trying to appeal to everyone, failed to appeal to us.

Soba

This glass house serves Asian street food and a few decent beers too.

Full Review

Yates’s, Woodhouse Lane

A marked improvement on its sibling. Still a chain pub.

Merrion Street’s live music and comedy venue is little more than that.
