Oh the borderline! This brings back memories of bands from long ago, showing my age now! This is a gig venue so all the extras (ha ha) of food or selection of ales isn’t what you come here for. I may be wrong but I seem to remember the borderline moved locations (??) I think to this one (still a long time ago) as it is bigger. It has history and there are photos of all the bands that have been here and I seem to remember seeing bands here on the way up, AND again on the way back down again! Don’t come to eat here it’s the tacky snack burger bar type of food. The sound is good at the venue though so it’s a must to see some bands here.

Similar in class to the 12bar but with a much bigger stage. It's a cool venue with a great history, mostly
plastered on the walls in the form of old gig posters (a lot of bands have played here before they made it).

However, like most live music venues in London, don't expect the Ritz.

Again, as with the 12bar (just a stones throw away) you come here for the music, the fact they serve food and beer is a bonus.

Expect:

Good live music

Lager on tap, bottles and spirits.

Food of the burger, chips and nacho variety.
