Simmons, Putney, SW15

David Walton left this review about Simmons

Likewise to the Be At One next door this is one of my final tick off’s of this large chain of London focussed bars. Some good pubs in SW15 still not visited on here but fancy the east life of Putney High St pre train back to Waterloo. Similar set up to next door in that this is a long and big venue for the chain, this time with the bar against the wall on the right hand side. Venue is punctuated with small copper topped circular tables and generally stools, although the ones in the window have a lime green banquette following the contour of the front to the entrance door. The venue also seems to have a mezzanine location with seating but on this quiet evening only the downstairs had customer attendance. A neon sign at the far end of the ground floor proclaimed “Disco” but no evidence of disco, albeit a rather an enjoyable Latin soundtrack supported by the Cuban flags adorning the premises. Actually also spotted Peruvian and Uruguayan flags in the venue.

This chain does at least have draught beer. Indeed always the combination of Madri, Neck Oil, Camden Hells and Camden Pale Ale in the venues. Also a more interesting range of beers by bottle and can. Again not the driver of likely alcohol consumption here.

Discovered whilst quaffing my beer that it is Latin night here every Thursday hence the flags and soundtrack. This is where i sign off here. Cha Cha Cha.
