The Red Lion is full of rude Tories and the beer always gives me the squits. It also has a full length mirror by the urinals, so you can watch everyone else's cock whilst taking a leak.
St Stephen's is a bit better but very hot and has the interior design of a Wetherspoon's pub.
Gawd, if the pub's half as bad as the website anyone with decent critical facilities will have been filtered out; is this a clever marketing ploy to ensure that everyone who shows up will take whatever they can get?
I actually work for a dating and social club, and these people clearly need my help. I'd pitch them, if I weren't worried they'd misconstrue it and come on to me.
I went there with my good-lady Kim to see what was up. Turns out Emily a friend of mine from the 2001 elections came up with the idea. Not many single young women there but its was just the launch. Interesting to see how it plays out.

You went to a singles dating service with your girlfriend? Isn't that a bit like turning up at The Savoy Grill with your own M&S chicken portions?

What were the men like, though? And what were all the married cougars doing there?
Emily: get a better web designer and ditch the purple ASAP. There, I won't even invoice ya for it. I'm such a sweetie.

Why are there so many bad pubs in Westminster?
Good question, a decent wine bar would make a killing.
The way you drink it would.
5 women on that site, none dare show their faces and one even has the cheek to be 43.
My guess is that this is either a mega piss-take, or that a tabloid newspaper is behind it.
Anon - you are right about the general quality of the bars in Westminster. Are they any better in Wexford, Guido ;-)
It'll all be over by 9.30 anyway - just to make sure everyone gets home in time for Question Time.
The thought of being cornered by a pre-menopausal jolly hockey sticks type is too ghastly to contemplate...
Do you ever venture up to Wicklow Guido?
Pubs aplenty!

So... did anyone go last night? I want gossip.
A short walk to Embankment and there's Gordon's wine bar on Villiers Street.
