Strongers . left this review about The Oceanic

Tucked away at the far end of Terminal 3, Oceanic is a landside bar and restaurant that was quiet during a recent Monday afternoon visit. There are lines of tables for dining up the right-hand side and across the rear, but there is a U-shaped stool lined serving counter with adjacent high ‘bar’ tables in the left front corner. The greeter at the entrance was very friendly and there was no issue with me making my way to the counter that supports premium keg alongside Stella, the cask ale has been removed. There was some background music playing, proper songs rather than anonymous muzak. I thought it was OK in here, especially for an airport, it’s just a shame that there’s no view of the planes out of the windows across the rear.

Just a quick pint, then I'm off left this review about Three Bells

From a distance, you might think that this is a bog-standard airport bar/restaurant, but it is run by Geronimo Inns who usually give the impression of knowing what they are doing. A fairly well-thought out layout, with plenty of bar stools and some lower chairs and tables in front of the main restaurant area. Three of five handpumps were in use on my latest visit, offering Youngs Ordinary, Doom Bar and Bombardier (£3.95). Overall, nothing special, but still surprising good given the charmless location inside Terminal 3.

This one is landside at LHR Terminal 3, and is the last chance of a decent pint before heading off for the security area. They had three ales on during my recent visit – Young’s London Gold; Adnam’s Southwold Bitter; and Sharp’s Doom Bar. Interestingly they were offering a “special promotion” of a third of each ale for £3.80 for those who might be undecided as to what to go for. As others have noted, this is a better bar than The Bridge Bar which is airside. It’s certainly less crowded, and therefore more comfortable, probably because most people want to get the rigours of the security procedures out of the way before settling down for a drink. It’s clearly not cheap – a feature of airport bars of course – but is worth a visit if you’ve got the time to spare.
