Well, Pages bar - It is in Kensington, it is ok - not Patronising
at all actually, They serve wierd drinks (as well as normal ones), the
bar-tenders are dressed in TNG uniforms, and they show episodes of
TOS/TNG and DS9. There are going to be, apperently, some guests from
TOS/TNG comming to the Bar in the summer.

Meaning members of the cast go there, too?

Has anyone actually *been* to Pages Bar?
What is it like, do customers also show up in costumes?

Any further detailed information will be most welcome (incl. address)

Merci.

They guy who runs the Bar (Bob) is trying to get some cast members
from other sci-fi shows shows such as Red Dwarf, Blakes 7, Doctor
Who etc to attend Pages Bar is honor of the space university (who
are appearently short on funds and *ARE* a worthy cause)

: Has anyone actually *been* to Pages Bar?

Yep, i've been there many a time, its a fine venue.
In fact I held a Fan club meeting there Yesterday.

: What is it like, do customers also show up in costumes?

Every time i have been, i have been in uniform, i would say at least
40 people show up in uniform, with more and more each week, plus you
have all the others in t-shirts, Bajoran Earings etc etc.
plus all the bar staff wear uniforms.

The saturday just gone, the Guardian newspaper arrived to do a piece on
the bar. (i think it will be in this thursdays issue, in the supplement)
The address is Page St, Westminster . The bar is on the corner of Page
street and Marsham st.
the nearest train stations are Westminster, Pilmlico, Victoria and
Charing cross.
From Westminster station, walk down millbank until you get to Lambeth
bridge, then turn left onto horseferry rd, then take the 2nd (i think)
left which is Marsham st and it is about 100 yards on the right.

If you decide to go, Look out for me, I'm the one in the Admirals
uniform (as in the Pegasus episode)
