"USP: You’re drinking cocktails… on a boat On paper, a canal-side barge isn’t the greatest suggestion in the world to someone you’ve never met. You’d think at best it’s giving incense and WOMAD anecdotes, but Bruno’s is somewhere that’s very seductive (and doesn’t have any parachute pants in sight). It’s a softly lit and plushly decorated cocktail bar that bobs next door to Islington bistro Caravel. The vibe is what we’d describe as ‘cosy-luxe’ and is perfect if you want to whip out the “I know this little place” line." - Rianne Shlebak, Jake Oliver
