Le Quecum Bar (Battersea)

• Film and a takeaway is normally the order of the day for delaying the inevitable
• Brasserie tucked away in Battersea that might just be the best looking bar on the planet
• The obvious gin to order is Hendricks because of the cucumber / Quecumbar link
• They have in fact recently created a partnership which is kicking off with their Prohibition Party on March 6th where Hendricks cocktails will be served in a range of prohibition style cups &
• Lollo Meier was joined on stage by Ferg Ireland on bass (that bloke standing in the tree at the back)
• Ducato on rhythm (who sticks out beautifully in photos below with a bright shirt) &
• It was hard to work out which were which despite the gap in composition of 70 years or so
• The sound quality at Quecumbar is fantastic &
• The sight lines are excellent from most seats do get there early if you want ringside seats though
• Maggie and I intended to head home at 11pm but two Laphroaig's later and it was closer to 1am
• By the time we left we felt like we were part of a new family
• I could have stayed all night but Monday morning beckoned 6 hours was longer than we expected to stay
• Who lives upstairs and is always the life and soul of the party
• Especially if you are a Battersea local
• Some of which are ticketed so check the website or go on a Tuesday to see the free jam session to get yourself started
• They have their own record label with many recordings of live Quecumbar gigs available to buy online or in the bar
• The decor and the atmosphere was 5 star all the way for authority and the place was packed
• The entertainment was amazing if only the food and service had lived up to those standards I would have given full points
• It was on the food not even good just standard and the service was not very good at all
