Perfect Chill Out Lounge 14th March 2008

In need of a coffee and a chance to get out of the wind we nipped into Glow near Clapham South station. On a Sunday morning it was buzzing with 20 somethings catching up with their social lives - Macbooks out, Newspapers spread, gossip even more so.

Whilst Cowie was chatting on the phone I decided to nip inside and take a seat at their bar. Whilst enjoying a very robust coffee I was impressed by the quality of their backbar and the amount of Courvoisier they sell. The Australian girl behind the bar was good fun. Constantly making smoothies from sachets of frozen fruit she kept on giving me little samples! They were so busy she had to multi task by managing the bar, taking orders, blending smoothies, entertaining me and phoning up all her contacts to see if they would be willing to come in immediately to help out with the Sunday rush.

I absorbed the Observer supplements, another coffee and some sample smoothies and left thinking that Glow is awesome. The breakfasts and brunches look brilliant, the staff are really friendly and efficient. They've got wifi and the right newspaper. The perfect place on a Sunday? Or any day of the week perhaps.

We stopped by for breakfast before picking up our computer (the guy that fixed it is a shuttle specialist and works downstairs from the cafe). The food was lovely and the staff were friendly - and didn't mind us lingering a while. We would definitely go again.

This place has soul!
and life and fun and friendly faces!
I've been a regular for years - perhaps some of the happiest and hardest years.

Have been a regular of the Glow Lounge Cafe for years, but have just discovered it as a great venue for night as well. It's great to be able to get a nice drink in a friendly place, without it being over crowded, or getting hassles from any of the customers.

The girls and I have made the Glow Lounge our Wednesday night regular! there's a Jazz duet who play amazing music, and wine specials that give you a bottle for less the £10! Just wanted you all to know that its really good fun!

I stumbled acroos this funky little venue after a day out on Clapham common. Situated on the South Side, it gets all the afternoon sun, and i'm yet to find a better venue to while away my weekend arvo's. The food was great, the staff friendly and knowledgable, the drinks amazing, and the value for yr pound was astounding. My advice, get a table on the terrace, a few friends, a few jugs of pimms, and the house specialty cocktails for after dark.

"My advice, get a table on the terrace, a few friends, a few jugs of pimms" - sounds like the recipe for a great afternoon!
