"We’ve seen a lot of first dates happen at Goldfinch in Tooting. It’s one of those great little neighbourhood bars where the welcome is warm, the drinks are strong, and courtesy of the flickering tealights, everyone looks like they’re living in a filter called xxx_GoldenHourGlow_xxx. Get one of the woody smoke show cocktails by the decorative fireplace or for summer flirtations, a zesty Happy Hour paloma out in the charming back garden." - heidi lauth beasley, jake missing, sinead cranna
