@ Radisson Blu Bloomsbury Street Hotel on Various dates from Saturday 26th September 2020
Billed as a 'must-see', Faulty Towers The Dining Experience is back for 2018 and it's as funny as ever. Taking place in central London, the night will include live performances, dinner, and plenty of silliness.
Belushi's in London Bridge is a bar that allows the big kid inside your dad to come out and let loose for a few hours. It has everything you'd expect from a quintessential sports bar, with a few added bonuses. The bar has a distinctive American feel about it; if the Foosball tables aren't really his thing, he's sure to have fun at one of their Xbox stations. And of course, the biggest live sporting events from around the globe will all be shown on one of their large HD projector screens.
Don't be fooled by the name of this fun-loving joint, the 1920 Bar is styled as a wild, American pool hall in the 70s. Think orange coloured table tops and brightly coloured furniture; it's bursting with energy and is full of a number of nostalgic features that are guaranteed to take your dad back to the days of his youth. Buy him a tall pint, sit back and watch as he plants a few striped balls in the corner pocket.
The Jugged Hare is one of the finest dad pubs in London. Beautifully decorated, the walls are covered in majestic taxidermy, vintage frames and a few mounted stag heads. With a sleek finish, the open kitchen allows guests to peer behind the scenes as the team of experienced chefs prepare a delicious array of traditional dishes. If that wasn't enough, the walk-in wine cellar allows guests to handpick their preferred bottle of wine, while the bar stocked full of craft ales will be serving irresistible pints of amber bliss.
With a menu of exquisite, finger-licking food and a bar stocked full of ice cold cocktails, there are few better restaurants for dads in London. The philosophy at Blues Kitchen is simple; it offers fantastic Texas barbecue grub and smooth, irresistible bourbon-based cocktails. Adding to that is the venue's beautiful decor and welcoming atmosphere. Rustic by nature and with a massive, vintage airstream caravan, the restaurant is adventurous and endearing all at the same time.
Take your dad out in London this week and buy him a tall glass of ice-cold, frosty beer at the Brewhouse & Kitchen in Islington. Seasoned beer connoisseurs Simon Bunn and Kris Kumbrell bring East London's dwellers a bar that brews it's impressive menu of craft drinks right under the noses of their punters. The open brewery allows guests to observe the delicate process involved in making some of the finest craft beers and ales that London has to offer.
