Ronnie Scotts

My partners niece went there a couple of weeks ago. She said that the cheapest drink was £18-00! Is this true?

Looks like she was telling porkies, Chris. Thanks for the link.

That's what you pay in central London

Perhaps her boyfriend paid and that's what he told her, to impress ;-)

[Buenchico]

^^^ . . . or what he told her so that he could avoid buying her more than a single drink ;-)

[melv16]

Exactly, canary. A bloke took her there on a date.

That's a Yorkshireman's trick, Chris

When I was living in Greater London I always thought I'd get around to going there one day. I think the potential costs of entry and drinks didn't encourage me to get around to it. I now see entry is £30 to £40 which may have been acceptable for a one off. But I also see that one needs to book at the website or booking office; I'd have just turned up !

I did get to Smollensky's once for live jazz as I ate. No big name that night, fairly empty, but pleasant. But I look on the Net now and it seems to have turned more into a steak/BBQ place ?! Not like the day when they advertised on Jazz FM, when that station used to broadcast.
