Version 8 Version 4
== Line 0 == == Line 0 ==
12 Bar Cafe was an American-style diner in the heart of guitar land, just off [[Locale Charing Cross Road|Charing Cross Road]]. It was renamed to 12 Bar Club by 2012, and moved to the old premises of [[Phibbers, N7 8DL|Phibbers]] in [[Locale Lower Holloway|Lower Holloway]] by April 2015.
This American-style diner in the heart of guitar land serves basic cafe dishes - omelettes, ciabatta with chips, pasta dishes, and some dishes of the day - menu <a href="http://london.randomness.org.uk/wiki.cgi?action=edit;id=12_Bar_Cafe,_WC2H_8NL">here</a>. But it's the burgers that interested us the most - all named after genres of music. We were very impressed with the fact that there were just as many veggie burgers as regular.

<a href="http://london.randomness.org.uk/wiki.cgi?Bec">Bec</a> had the Punk - with chiles and cheese for £5.95 and was very impressed by the spiciness. Holly went for Ska - with fried onions, cheese and red chilies, also £5.95. The same toppings and name apply to the meat burgers. Sean highly rated his meaty Blues - with blue cheese and bacon, again £5.95. Bec was happy to see yellow French's style mustard and Hellman's brand mayonnaise. That's authentic yank!

The interior is a painted red and there's a framed NME with John Peel, as well as collage of musicians photos. Bec was pleased to the White Stripes - well, they match the interior. There's a <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/90117465@N00/2372230452/">jukebox</a>, though I don't know if is working or for show - the staff were playing The Clash when we went.

I definitely want to come back to sample the nachos and during an evening to check out some bands.
