Bar Gazer: Market House

The buzz: a speakeasy-style Brixton boozer which is a laid-back bistro during the day and vibrant cocktail bar by night with DJs and dancing.

The deal: a mishmash of quirky vintage furniture and pink-hued lamps with very good and cheap cocktails served in wacky glasses and jars.

Good for: pre-gig drinks, post-work drinks, weekend nights — everything really.

Order: the Raspberry Mojito or Watermelon Fizz and good gastropub grub if you’re hungry.

By the way: girly cocktails aside, it’s still a good place to get a local pint, guys …
