Blues Bar and Grill

This place has a great-value menu, a 'guitars-only' music policy and a relaxing feel to it. But the main attraction here is the live music; blues bands play in the bar at least three nights a week and there's a great atmosphere, especially at weekends when the bar stays open til late. The 'tex-mex' food served here includes ribs, nachos, chowder and near-legendary homemade burgers; there's a wide choice of starters, and a new-world biased wine list. The wood-panelled restaurant upstairs has views over the regenerated Barbican harbour area, and for warmer days there are tables out on the cobbled dockside. ...more information
