Glad you liked our pizzas lena, agree with you about the bar needing refurbing. Its been packed every weekend since we opened four years ago and it really needed a new facelift! Well that's been done now and it looks fantastic :)

Same leather sofas and same vibe that everyone loves, just better !

We are now taking bookings for Feb and March (sorry all booked up now in Jan.)and we have our 4th Birthday on Saturday 2nd February with DJ Lottie(radio 1). Next time your in come say hi, and ill give you your Pizza on the house:)

Are you allowed to rate your own bar as having 5 stars? Maybe you are and it just shows that you've got confidence in how great your bar is...

Maybe lots of places do rate themselves and we don't realise. I guess it's good that you are open about being the bar owner.

I've always wanted to pop in for a drink and I might well do now. Have you still got a Courvoisier logo on your awning?

Got nothing to hide, im quite proud of the Bar. I have been here 4 years in Feb and i reckon we have got things just about right now with the new reurb. We have never been so busy.

People have a right to like or not like bars, luckly in Clapham there is lots of choice people. Pubs, DJ bars, etc..Im still down the bar virtualy everynight and we always try our best to customer focused, It tkes a while to get things right, especialy when you set things up a budget like we had! When we we first opened the decor was poor, the layout was wrong, the bar not set-up right. The last 2 years (as we earn more money) we have sorted out these problems, and now IMHO i think we have been one of the best bars on the street. Its packed everyweekend and you can see form the type of people coming in that the Bar is working really really well.

Im quite open about things down the bar and i sure there is people who hate it aswell as love it.

Anyways if you come down anytime give us a shout and ill get you a beer.

The 1st time I came here, I had a few drinks in the evening and didn't really like the place. I still don't - the decor is a bit confused and there's too much going on and it's a bit too dark in there.

However, I'll go there just for the pizzas. They truly are amazing - crisp base, good spread of toppings and very tasty. It's obvious that the base is freshly made. They have offers on certain days aswell. When I went, it was 2 for 1 pizza. At about £6-£7 a pizza, this made it a really cheap meal! The pizzas are not exactly small either. A nice surprise.
