What we say

Buzzy gay brasserie

The most recognized name in casual high-definition-gay dining, catering to carnivores and vegetarians with reasonable but not quite vital cooking at this and its other branches in Kensington, Chiswick, Shepherd's Bush (Westfield mall) and former gay ghetto Earls Court, with a smaller café operating round-the-clock at 34 Old Compton St. — a one-minute walk from the Soho mothership.

First to Review - May 12, 2009 - Visited: May 2009

One of only two places that I enjoyed during a week stay in London. I went to just about every bar listed. I was told to dress well, Brits are a always well dressed. But all I saw people wearing was clothing that make shopping at K mart like you were at Neiman's. The economy is really bad there. Try to decipher the bus system or pay 50 pounds for a taxi; that's around 85 in US dollars. Will write a couple of additional reviews later. O yes, I did meet this really hunky Lad from Ireland in a gay bar, later he turned out to be a straight guy with no scruples that would f*(*&^ anything not bolted to the floor for 60 pounds. How lucky can I get!!
