Was it the grass skirted girl at the door, the shiny palm trees, the beach shirts or the inflatable sharks? Not sure, but we had an inkling that this place had a theme night on. Either that or we had stumbled onto the Harrow Riviera... Nope, closer inspection tells us we had arrived at "Ben & Bazza's Beach Party - No Speedos". Tim quickly got changed and we got our beers and perched ourselves at a table by the window. We had left the station by the high street exit and turned right by the horrific Petri bar to find this large pub which, despite the chavvy bouncers (at 8pm?!?), was pretty welcoming. A few clearly over-excited guests boogied to the beach "choons" and we enjoyed the pub, but with a large gaggle of guests in tow, a food stop was in order. Luckily this neck of the woods is kebab-land and we all enjoyed a large one on the way back to the station and on to Northwick Park...

 


Hula hula!
