David Walton left this review about Bootlegger

Visited 29/07/26. Visited previously as Sinners Social Club on 20/10/25.

No cask. Keg offering of Guinness, Cornish Orchards Cider, Meantime Anytime IPA, Asahi and Peroni.

Plush refit. Industrial zebra crossing style Lino with the bar counter on the left-hand wall in the front part of the venue with some tall stool seating along the length of the bar counter. There are some tall tables with tall stools opposite the bar counter and then a couple of steps up into a seating area with regular tables along the balustrade and then some regular tables on the right-hand wall served by a turquoise banquette that wraps around to the entrance. There was a piano in the rear left-hand corner and a good amount of floor space turned over to a dance floor as in the previous venue with then some regular tables served by a wraparound banquette as per the front part of the venue. Noise provided by a live pianist on my visit. No screens and a good amount or neon and LED lighting particularly of the venue name and logo.

Visited 20/10/25. Visited previously as Tequilla Mockingbird on 09/05/23.

No cask. Keg offering of Guinness, Camden Eazy, Mahou and Camden Hells.

Supposed "dive bar" but this is far too clean and organised to be put into that camp! Zebra crossing style tiled floor with bar counter along left-hand wall just inside the entrance with some tall stool seating at either end of the bar counter. Some tall tables opposite the bar counter and a raised area along the right-hand side with a banquette serving several regular tables. There are banquettes around all sides of the rear and a pool table in the floor space in front thereof. Surprisingly, no screens and just a dart board in the front left-hand corner. Music was on the right track for what the venue aspires to be but more Hard Rock Cafe than a hoped-for dive bar experience.
