"If you’re looking to have a good time in Battersea, you go to Northcote Records. This live music venue and energetic bar is all about strong cocktails, loud music, and lapping up those sacred moments of London sunshine. Packed with picnic benches and parasols, the big pavement beer garden has the feeling of a proper street party. You know, the kind you walk past and think, 'mojito?'. It also serves lageritas, involving half a lager with a frozen margarita, and 10/10 passionfruit daiquiris. We haven’t been here yet, but want you to know this spot exists." - Team Infatuation

This place is a lot of fun but gets very busy on a weekend. There is a lot of outdoor seating and usually people are happy to stare their tables but you are not allowed to stand up outside with a drink. Inside is also quite small but the music is great.

Came for a drink outdoors and enjoy the decent weather. They have plenty of tables outdoors where they provide table service. Plenty of staff in taking orders and keeping the terrace clean and looked after. It took around 20 minutes however for me to get my drinks.. twice.. the staff I spoke to was really nice though and offered us a complimentary pint upon realise the issue. All staff was really friendly and laid back which is what I like to see when visiting a place as it allows me to get in the same mood. They offer quite a few cocktails, wines but only 2 draft beers (peroni or asahi). Prices are average for London. Place turns into a live music venue after 9pm on Fridays. You need to be in before 9 to get a free stamp, otherwise it will be 5£ entry fee. Good spot for some fun with friends singing tunes and having a few drinks. In terms of food they offer pizzas while you can also order from Patty & Bun (burgers) next door if seating in the terrace. Security was rude and dry as you would expect. Really not helping the vibe to be honest.

The venue looks quite nice from the outside. Sadly enough I was denied entry for no valid reason. I only intended to listen to some live music, however, the bouncer at the door frowned upon seeing I'd like to enter on my own. After asking for ID, he complained that I should present some other ID, as he was not satisfied with the ID I provided, even though it's completely valid. I'm quite disappointed, and frankly I believe I might have been discriminated at the door due to my appearance. I'd like to invite the owners of the establishment to check upon their security employees, so other people don't have to pass through this experience.

For someone that doesn’t enjoy SW london this was actually surprisingly pleasant. Good beer garden and live music, alright drink prices (for London). The loos do need sorting though not nearly enough for a whole bar.

Pretty fun place, but I don't like their selection of beers. I'm stuck with Camden Hells which is a overhyped pretty disgusting tasting beer. Please can you guys look into getting some more variety?

We enjoyed our visit to Northcote Records one recent Friday evening. We arrived at about 11pm and the place was full but we didn't have to queue. The doormen are friendly, but be aware that their policy at the door is to ask everyone for identification,. There was a very funky band playing, called Rhythm 'n Booth. We danced and enjoyed the music until late (maybe too late, why does the overground stop running so early?), and sipped our drinks. The bar service was quick and I can't recall the toilets so they can't have been too bad! We'll definitely be visiting Northcote Records again soon.

Nice place for drinks and cocktails . Most Cocktails around £9.5. They also serve pizzas. Nothing extraordinary though. The day we visited they had live music which was nice but around 10 all stools and high tables were removed , which gives space for dancing , but people have nowhere to put their coats , bags and drinks. So you end up with piles of coats in the middle of the floor and around them people dancing. That’s a downside as well , if you wear high heels 👠 !!
