Magazine London 11 Ordnance Crescent London Se10 0Jh
Location-wise, it’s surprisingly easy to reach. Hop on the Jubilee Line to North Greenwich station—that’s the same stop as The O2, but don’t get distracted by that giant domed alien spacecraft. From the station, it’s a five-minute walk over a cute little footbridge. You’ll see the O2 on your left and Magazine London on your right, like two siblings arguing over who is the best landmark.

If you drive, good luck finding parking—it’s basically a sport. But there’s a car park nearby, and you can always pretend to be a fancy local by taking an Uber. The postcode SE10 0JH is your GPS treasure map. Just follow it, and you’ll end up at a place that feels like a dojo for good times.
What to Expect When You Arrive
Expect long queues if you’re early, but don’t fret—the queue is a social event in itself. I’ve made two friends, argued about avocado, and accidentally stepped on a dog’s tail while waiting. Once inside, the cloakroom is your best friend (unless you want to carry a jacket like a sad backpack dancer).
The drinks are pricey, because London, but they’re strong. I recommend the “Something Fizzy and Forgettable.” Also, the bathrooms are weirdly photogenic, with mirrors that make you look like you’ve had eight hours of sleep. Total lie, but we’ll take it.
