It's a kind of database, kind of review site, used for documenting interesting places in London. Our major obsessions are [[Category Pubs|pubs]], [[Category Restaurants|restaurants]], [[Category Cafes|cafes]], [[Category Bookshops|bookshops]], and [[Category Museums|museums]]. We're also quite interested in places that are [[Category Vegan Friendly|vegan-friendly]] and/or [[Category Step-Free Access|accessible]]. (Check the [[Category Category|All Categories]] link in the sidebar for more!) |
It's a kind of database, kind of review site, used for documenting interesting places in London. Want to find a [[Category Good Beer Guide|Good Beer Guide]] pub within half a kilometre of [[Waterloo Station]]? Or a [[Category Sushi|sushi restaurant]] near a [[Category Cinemas|cinema]]? That's what this is for. <small>(See the [[Waterloo Station]] page for the former, and [http://london.randomness.org.uk/find.cgi here] for the latter.)</small> |

We collect structured data on everything we include in the guide, so if you want to find a [[Category Sushi|sushi]] restaurant near a [[Category Cinemas|cinema]], just use our <a href="http://london.randomness.org.uk/scripts/find.cgi">category search</a>. Or if you want to find a [[Category Good Beer Guide|Good Beer Guide]] pub within 500m of [[Victoria Station]], just look <a href="http://london.randomness.org.uk/scripts/pubsearch.cgi?tube_distance=500&tube=Victoria+Station&gbg=1&Search=Search">here</a>. |
We're still importing location data, but we've got all the Tube and DLR stations, and all the Good Beer Guide pubs, and we're adding more all the time. |

This is not, and never will be, a commercial guide. We don't accept advertising or freebies, and all reviews are written by our team of [[Category Contributors|contributors]]. Major changes and additions to the site will always be viewable on <a href="https://rglondon.dreamwidth.org/">our blog</a>, and our <a href="http://london.randomness.org.uk/scripts/stats.cgi">Statistics</a> page gives an overview of how active the site has been recently (specifics can be found in the <a href="http://london.randomness.org.uk/wiki.cgi?Restaurante_Santafereno,_SW9_8PR">Recent Changes</a>, which are accessible from the navigation bar on every page). |
This is not, and never will be, a commercial guide. It's a grassroots thing, set up for the benefit of its contributors. You can use it too, if you like. Or not, if you don't. We don't care :) |

Basically do what you want, but if in doubt you may wish to see the not-very-strict [[House Style Guidelines]]. |
