Strawberry Moon's used to be just another sleezy pulling bar just off Regent street - Heddon Street actually.
It still is - except now it has some stiff - and believe me that is the only stiff thing in here - competition. I beg you try Momo's instead, it has 2 bars- a chilled out big cushion, hubble bubble smokers paradise at street level, or a uber cool hang out below the restaurant. Or - provided you book - you could spend 45 mins in the Ice bar. Best of all-The Living Rooms opposite the Strawberry has everything - great music, a decent menu and atmosphere, decor not bad either and not too expensive.
So back to The Strawberry - why was I here? I have visited this establishment twice. First time I was exceptionally drunk and under pressure from 3 girlfriends to entertain them - we left shortly after arrival due to agressive behaviour from other visitors to the venue.
Second time -I was drunker - and recently dumped and under self pressure to get pissed and snogged? Well I can assure you I would have had to be in a coma to try my luck in here. Need I say more - basically don't do it girls get some self-respect. I have and I feel hugely better for it.
I am being v. harsh? SM's must have a some pluses - It's not expensive -a fiver to get in after 11- cheap for Central London - well you do get what you pay for in this life..... Bottled beers are 3 quid -in line with C. London prices. Music is cheesy but not cheesy enough - personally I prefer the out and out in your face style of somewhere like the Walkabout.
On Fridays, they have competitions, the night i was there it was a lap dancing contest, complete with bar supplied infiltrators which I have to admit was entertaining. This scruffy Aussie guy was fantastic and got voted sexiest act over the pouting ringers - slightly set up. Don't stand too close to the bar it smells faintly of last night's alcohol, unfortunately the same smell as last nights's vomit - alarming. The loos are ghastly and occuipied by one of those perfume touting, chewing gum, towel handing out hecklers which always gets my back up. Incidentally guys - do you get people asking for money in your loos as well?
London has a bar for everyone and everyone for a bar and I think I just don't want to spend another evening with the Strawberry Moon's everyone - it's just not pretty enough.

You may not have given much description of the place, which does mark down the rating a bit, but you've managed to put me off going here. Thanks for that. Richard aka Beaker

Have to say I agree with the others on more info needed - I know its probably one to avoid but more on what we are avoiding would be good. I also have been there - about 8 years ago and it was fairly decrepit then. If you add anymore info then drop me a note in my GB and I'd be happy to re-read/rate. Josparkle x

I think people would like some more info about it! However, I have been there myself and agree that its a tacky hell hole. Arent there moose heads on the wall which move to the music?? (or was I very drunk) Dan.
