Charterhouse Bar,
Charterhouse Street,
EC1
Free, 1st and 3rd Sunday of Every month
Rating - 4/5
All open mic Trendy Smithfield bar, but quiet on Sunday afternoon. Upstairs room with reasonable seating and amplification but poor lighting. Good range of poets and styles, no musicians (thankfully!), a good MC (Nii Parkes) and an appreciative audience. My first visit, not the last.
