We haven’t been to Cigalon but they tell me there are 6 steps to get in and there is no disabled toilet because it is a Grade II Listed Building – not again! It looks lovely as it is a former auction house with a glass ceiling, we’ll update you when we’ve visited unless you…
Club Gascon specialises in food from the South-West of France, I’ve been to the restaurant many times. The food is excellent and they, quite rightly in my opinion, have a Michelin Star. Unfortunately they have limited space so there is no disabled toilet and there is a small step to get in but otherwise well…
We haven’t audited Caravan yet but when we called the Exmouth Market restaurant they said they were only small and didn’t have a disabled toilet but they did have a portable ramp to help you up the step to get in. However their new branch opening in King’s Cross seems to be more accessible they…
Carvosso’s in Chiswick is a popular venue for Chiswick residents, the bar is always buzzing and the food is OK too. There are steps at the front of the building but there is level access through a side door and there’s also a disabled toilet. There’s plenty of room in the restaurant for a wheelchair…

Soho Polpo – good access but no disabled toilet 1.5 BBS Ticks.…
Polpo is owned by the same people as Spuntino see review here and Lieutenant no 1 thinks they are hot and trendy at the moment. Each restaurant has a secret bar which is a “clandestine destination” but they are all in the basement with no wheelchair access, we assume. We haven’t audited these three restaurants –…
These bars were recommended to me by Lieutenant no. 2 – The Lost Angel, Citizen Smith and Lost Society. They all look like a cross between a Victorian pub and somewhere Mumford & Sons would visit. They say they have “Illicit Dining and Forbidden Beverages”. We haven’t checked out these bars/restaurants but did call them all…

It finds trendy/stylish places near your location and rates them with BBS Ticks . The rating looks at style/ambience, access & facilities. You can sort on any of these or just by…
