Fiz Bar aims to encourage a new generation of sparkling-wine lovers \u2013 those who aren\u2019t interested in the hype but love the taste \u2026and the fizz.<\/p>\n<h4>Cyclists with helmets and dubious shorts; office workers with laptops; meeters and greeters<\/h4>\n<p>This is a casual bar which has found its temporary home in a former neon-sign shop, and there is still plenty of that stock on show. It\u2019s contemporary with hints of an older Soho: one of the signs beams \u2018Peep Show\u2019! The founders had originally expected that folks would stand and drink, but now there are pine benches and stools for a more comfortable event, as there is food on offer here, too, including one of the best grilled cheese sandwiches in London! The plates and platters do, where possible, reflect British seasonal produce.<\/p>\n<p>Prosecco, Cava, English sparkling and Cremante from far and near are available, and many by the glass. This is about delicious discovery at a reasonable price. It\u2019s about friends and fizz. It\u2019s just as much about the folks who visit as it is about the menu. They are an eclectic bunch: cyclists with helmets and dubious shorts; office workers with laptops; meeters and greeters.<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"image-4-3 image-review alignright\" src=\"http:\/\/www.mostlyfood.co.uk\/img\/Fiz-column-web.jpg\" alt=\"Fiz Bar pillar\" width=\"247\" height=\"256\" \/><\/p>\n<p>I trust that Fiz Bar will find a permanent home in the near future. Yes, I think it\u2019s a sign of things to come. It\u2019s time that we enjoyed fizz more and stopped drinking it just because we think we look good doing it. Fizz shouldn\u2019t be thought of as posh but should be appreciated by a wider audience for its bubbly personality \u2013 and Fiz Bar has plenty of that!<\/p>\n<p>Summer PopUp from 20th June &#8211; 13th August<\/p>\n<p>Fiz Bar<br \/>\nThe Lights of Soho<br \/>\n35 Brewer Street<br \/>\nLondon<br \/>\nW1F 0RX<\/p>\n<p>Monday to Thursday 10:00am &#8211; 23:30pm<\/p>\n<p>Friday to Saturday 10:00am &#8211; midnight<\/p>\n<p>Sunday 12:00noon to 16:00pm<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><em>Bar review by Chrissie Walker \u00a9 2018<\/em><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This is a PopUp so don\u2019t spend time reading the rest of this piece.
