This Islington ode to the classic American dive bar has a slightly sleazy reputation—the bartenders collect underwear from female guests in exchange for drinks, and hang the bras from the ceiling like trophies—but it’s all in good humour. The floor’s sticky, the light’s low, and you’re best off with a beer and a shot of rye. The bar manager’s Irish, so if you want to show you know what you’re talking about, order a Bán and black. It’s a half-pint of Guinness served with a shot of poitín, a traditional Irish moonshine. It’s an acquired taste but worth trying—trust me.

For those looking for a slice of LA in London, Slim Jim’s is a safe haven. It has an authentic dive bar feel that manages to avoid kitsch and serves tasty, over-the-top American food. Sip on a bourbon, put a 50s song on the jukebox, and enjoy the seedy-but-sweet atmosphere.
In the style of an LA dive bar, lots of fun, good rocky jukebox, gets lively on a Saturday night.
