Head over to Canary Wharf where the Munich Cricket Club is making every day into Oktoberfest. Get stuck into heaving steins of German beer, soaked up with classic bavarian bites, including bratwurst, Käsekrainer, strudel, schnitzel and more.

The kitschest bar in all of Deptford, Little Nan's is remaking your grannies living room in a South London enclave, complete with quirky teapot cocktails, fish finger sandwiches and a million little knick-knacks for you to gawp at.

Feel like a night out in London isn't complete without a trip to the circus? Big top inspired Trapeze would have to agree. When you're not enjoying the quirky cocktails or club nights in the basement, tuck into chow the likes of burgers and sharing platters.

Head along to Monopoly Lifesized's themed Top Hat Bar & Restaurant. Whether you're popping in after a game on its 15m x 15m board, or just because you fancy something different, this is bound to impress. Think burgers, or perhaps a slice of Mr. Monopoly's very own millionaire's cheesecake.

Named after Prince Albert and designed as a homage to his Anglo-Bavarian roots, Albert's Schloss is a bier haven for those who love to drink the crisp stuff by the stein, and for those who also adore entertainment, thanks to its non-stop, seven-days-a-week lineup of acts. Look forward to DJ sets and cabaret paired with Alpine-inspired fare like gooey fondues, signature burgers and pretzels, not to mention the cocktails. Our favourite? The Apple Strudel, made with spiced rum and cinnamon.

Claphams's favourite tiki haunt is also an excellent spot for group dining if you're in the mood for simple tapas plates and juicy burgers. The real prize of course is their selection of zesty tropical-inspired cocktails.
