They're all pricey but that far up the road isn't too touristy so anywhere will be ok.

Bradleys, nap. Spanish bar just off it.

Northumberland Arms/Tavern - can't remember which, quite poky but very cosy.

Ta chaps.

Spanish bar? Now you're talking!!!!
Report Roger The Butler • December 3, 2009 10:23 AM GMT
There is one right on a corner along Oxford Street - quite narrow and with a restaurant downstairs. Always really busy but don't know the name.
Report Huckerson • December 3, 2009 10:25 AM GMT
That'll be Bradley's Rog. Just getting the A-Z to give you the road.
Report lovegod • December 3, 2009 10:26 AM GMT
Roger, is that the Tottenham? Its on Oxford Street but near the corner of Tottenham Court Road.
Report Huckerson • December 3, 2009 10:27 AM GMT
Right. Bradley's bar, Hanway St, runs between Tott Ct Rd ans Oxford Street. Excellent eclectic juke box as well.
Report Roger The Butler • December 3, 2009 10:30 AM GMT
Yes, that's the one - the Tottenham, not the Spanish bar.

Heaving but decent and good restaurant in basement as long as you aren't looking for a posh expensive meal.

My, you chaps are helpful!

Ta muchos (getting with the Spanish vibe already, y'see!)
Report Huckerson • December 3, 2009 10:45 AM GMT
It's well worth a visit, and if you don't like it, you can always move on. Enjoy, whatever you do.

Think he's being sarcy. I started a thread about it the other day, I've never been, but the beerinthe website must make it the most atrocious pub in London...

It has some serious competition for that title!

Going to a pub in Tottenham..brave guy IMO !

The Spanish bar is a bit of a cult boozer. Tiny, shabby, pi55 poor bogs but full of character (and not the faux variey). Used to drink there all the time when I worked round the corner. Everyone should go at least once in their lives.
Report Adagio • December 3, 2009 11:32 AM GMT
I think technically speaking that The ferry Boat is in Tottenham and that is most acceptable

I've been there a couple of times. It's worth a visit. In my opinion, the Tottenham is not.

nice pub, but a serious risk of getting typhoid in the toilet

There is a metal pub around the back of centre point! All the pubs around there kinda suck. There is a spoons on Charing Cross road and there is a Sam Smiths pub at Oxford Circusdown the road next to top shop.
