Further update Oct 2013 the person we spoke with is wrong there is no disabled toilet at the Hinds Head but ambulant disabled can use the Gents on ground floor, accessed by a step, cleaned and cordoned off by staff if a Lady wants to use. So as you were there’s still no relief in…
Further Update Nov 2013: The Hinds Head doesn’t have a disabled toilet it’s just a large gents on the ground floor accessed via one step. So as you were, see Hinds Head review here & Fat Duck still gets 3 BBS Ticks (on the proviso that the disabled/staff toilet is accessible, we’ll investigate soon). ………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………
Jewel cocktail bar is right next to the bright lights of Piccadilly Circus and puts on something of a similarly glitzy display itself. The decor is decadent and glamorous with elegant furnishings and delicious cocktails. It’s somewhere to go for a night of opulence in the heart of London; not somewhere for an discrete, quiet drink.…

The pub style of the place gives The Narrow a laid back atmosphere while the gastro side of things is covered, as you would expect, by brand Ramsay.

The main bar area is on the ground floor with easy access to get inside. It’s a spacious, elegantly furnished and…
Why would you call a bar Mook? Well, that’s something that has not been fully explained to us. It seems like a strangely self-demeaning name to choose for your bar. But you get the sense that this bar in Leeds is the sort of place that wouldn’t care what you called it. It’s the sort…
It’s Cocktail Week this week! No, it’s not just a week where everyone at Blue Badge Style drinks loads of cocktails – that would be every week – it’s officially London Cocktail Week. Alongside some special events there are over 150 bars offering discounted cocktails. The system for the week is that you can buy a…
The Montpellier Chapter Hotel in Cheltenham shows that you can have style and good accessibility even in a grade II listed building. The four star hotel takes the positive points of the early Victorian villa in which it is found and mixes it with the funky design and the modern notion of disabled access. So…
