Good Bars In London for a sunny day

There's a smart little rooftop bar opposite the O2 to the left of Chiquitos. Not sure if this is in an area of interest but the gaff is rather nice.

I always enjoyed The Queen of Hoxton in Shoreditch. Can get very busy though!

Go here - thank me later.

Get the train to Liverpool Street. FYI, it's a pub, not a bar. If you want a bar - Brewdog right by Brick Lane is also a gooden.

OH, main advise - don't go central. Get on the Northern line and jump to Old St. If you're after babes, go to BOXPARK by Shoreditch overground station.

Queen Vic, Albert Square. Watch out for the 2 bruisers with short hair and the bloke who used to be on game shows.

What I like to do is go and find things like this myself. It's something I call being an adult.

Nothing wrong with asking for a recommendation.

I hear Secrets near Holborn, is very good. I've never been personally.

Market Place near Oxford Circus is a nice venue, and serves the strongest drinks of any bar I have found in London!

Coq d'argent is always good in the City. No jumpers these days either.

The Duke of Edinburgh in Brixton has a good sized beer garden, not central but it's not far from the tube station.

So where did you go PSD? My bet is you walked past a pub not listed in this thread (most likely the first one) and said "EH, this will do"

What the Sky garden like can you turn up on a Saturday without a ticket and get entry?

The Green Room just behind the National Theatre is pretty good.

I don't think you can (you need a ticket) but there are lots of good rooftop bars around Monument, like One New Change, Sushi Samba, SkyLounge etc.

If "fit birds" (sorry, I think the nineties called and they want their attitudes back) are your priority then you could try the Radio Rooftop Bar. Full of plastic women I'm sure.
.

I got to be honest about this night!

Me and my mate were planning to go to Rooftop but not dressed very smart just casual jeans etc.

We went outside the place and it was full of posh tot and men all suited and booted waiting to get in!!! Needless to say we walked right past it and ended up in a O'Neils Pub down the road haha class right there

If we ever go to Rooftop I will be sure to wear a proper suit lol
happy monday peeps not long till friday now
