Zigfrid Bar (Old Street - London)

Zigfrid Bar

As you may or may not be able to tell from the image above this is the entrance to what we assumed to be some kind of mockup grren house with outdoor seating rain protected and weather proof but indeed we were wrong as we got a little closer. As you near the doo r the bouncers have made funny rules like "there must be more girls than boys in your groups" and no "single" people allowed. On entering the place was massively crowded, loud and bustling with activity. The large screen flashing scenes from humphrey bogart movies, oversized lampshades, small tables and giant arm chairs from beofre a war that never happened. The music was a sort of electronica, funky house tone and getting served at the bar took ages. The toilets were a mile towards the back and the heat was unbearable. The drinks were a quite reasonable £2.50 a pint however, and I am told it is a lot more pleasent before 7pm of a weekend evening.

Overall the party for old street is definitely happeneing here but i didnt feel like i wanted to be a part of it, too noisy, too hot, overall an avergae 5/10.
