Recent Fluid reviews for bars & restaurants in London
Roux at Parliament Square Westminster (Map)
“Best for: Spotting politicians, Michel Roux's Modern European magic, being one of London's best restaurants
Great: EVERYTHING!
You know a restaurant is empty, if,...” More

All Star Lanes, City of London (Bar / Restaurant)
“Bowling proves to be a catalyst for divisionary debate between my friends. Although not quite fanatical, there are those of us who hold a flame for the sport, and, when faced with an empty date in the...”

Tsuru Sushi, City of London (Restaurant)
“On the fringe of the city, where corporate money and chain style restaurants sit opposing the trendy and avant-garde bars and restaurants of Shoreditch and Old Street, is a new sushi eatery called Tsuru....”

The Bishop, Dulwich (Bar)
“Chess is a game of war. Two opposing armies face each other and one by one viciously attack.
Everything is reduced to black and white.
There are only two possible results: total victory or total...”

Brasserie Joel, Waterloo (Restaurant / Hotel)
“According to award-winning chef and ludicrously successful restaurant-owner Emeril Lagasse, the secret to creating a great restaurant is simple: “great food, great wine and great service”. Seemingly a...”

Cinnamon Kitchen, City of London (Bar / Restaurant)
“Bishopsgate is kind of dirty in a strange way, bustly and hustly especially on weekdays and even more so on hot, sticky evenings. Scratch the surface of this Liverpool Street locality, however, and navigate...”

aqua spirit, Soho (Bar)
“It’s hot outdoors. It’s hot indoors. That tall, dark, handsome plumber comes over to fix the leak under the sink. He taps away while you’re standing there producing more sweat than Drogba playing on his...”

The Summerhouse, Maida Vale & St Johns Wood (Restaurant)
“That’s it; summer’s officially over for another year. At least we got five good days of sunshine before the foreboding grey skies set in. As I look up and get large droplets of rain on my glasses, I realise...”

The Book Club, Shoreditch (Bar)
“I’ll Be Clumsy.
Every Time I Sit Around I Find I’ve Died.
Yep, downing shots at the bar never seems like a good idea - apart from at the time, of course - and phrases such as these should literally...”

The Normanby, Putney (Bar / Restaurant)
“Over-planning one's social life is hazardous, ill advised even. Don’t pretend otherwise. Overt organisation can suffocate spontaneity, annihilate the very soul with anticipation and leave one feeling despondent...”

Ichi Sushi & Sashimi Bar, Waterloo (Bar / Restaurant / Hotel)
“It was an evening of contrasts at the Ichi Sushi and Sashimi bar as London met the Far East in spectacular fashion. The oriental eatery occupies a fanciful corner of the Mezzanine floor at the Park Plaza...”

Leather Bottle, Wandsworth (Bar / Restaurant)
“The same magic involved in The Tardis or Mary Poppins’ bag is at work at The Leather Bottle; it appears smaller from the outside than it does from the inside. I walked in to realise, to my happy surprise,...”

The Hare & Hounds - Youngs, Barnes & Sheen (Bar / Restaurant)
“Here’s a secret for you. I’m not a ‘foodie’. Sure, I like eating, I like going to restaurants, but you’re looking for someone to show off to about your poached Andalusian crabapples, I’m not your girl....”

The Westminster, Westminster (Bar)
“On a humid, sticky night, drinkers sprawl outside of The Westminster. The summer has finally dawned upon us. It’s going down rather well with the clientele.
As I entered with guest in tow, we noted...”

Puji Puji, Dalston (Restaurant)
“Sitting outside on a sunny Monday reading a book on the front patio of Malaysian restaurant, Puji Puji, I almost feel as if I’ve been teleported to a more tropical land, but for the roar of London traffic...”

City Cafe at City Inn Westminster, Westminster (Bar / Restaurant / Hotel)
“One way to get to the City Café at the City Inn is by cab. We forgot all that and chose two feet and a heartbeat. After all, there are things to see in London and, damnit, I keep missing them. To get started...”

The Red Fort, Soho (Bar / Restaurant)
“I regard Indian food as a friend, a good friend. We’ve known each other for years. We meet up often; whether for a quiet night in, lounging in front of the TV, or for a weekend powwow with other likeminded...”

Le Cafe Du Marche, Clerkenwell (Bar / Restaurant)
“I like books. I like books with ribbed, concave spines, their pages splashed with coffee or red wine, swollen with bath water. I like their words smudged with cigarette ash or make-up from holding it too...”

The Boaters Inn, Kingston (Bar)
“This is a review and so should mention that the table was wonky (until wedged with a beer mat), that the salmon had to be replaced with trout because they’d run out, and that some sort of minor balls up...”

Camino, Kings Cross (Bar / Restaurant)
“Dear Camino,
Thanks very much for dinner on Tuesday evening. I always find Tuesday is one of those odd nights in the week. Tuesday: just the sound of it is a bit dull, like March (as opposed to, say,...”
