Best London Bars and Pubs of 2015

Posted on 2015-12-22 by tikichris

London has been a great place to drink for many a year. This year, for me, it seemed even better than before. My favourite watering holes continued to please while a handful of new or bars and pubs otherwise previously unknown to me caught my attention with great service, comfy digs and – most importantly – quality quaffs.

25% Off Flying Burger Company Premium Burger Delivery

Posted on 2014-01-02 by tikichris

Flying Burger Company is a burger-only/delivery-only biz.

However, I reckon the concept is a smart one and has a good chance of taking off and successfully soaring. I wouldn’t be surprised at all to see service extend across London soon. Continue reading →
