The Kings Lounge was next on the agenda. Previously The Brewery Tap and The Barking Tap, the once pub is now more of a bar with a hotel (Real Dreams) attached. The place describes itself as a “Relaxed hub for Nigerian comfort food & full bar amid a variety of seating arrangements & TV sports.” That it was and it was packed due to the champions league being shown. We had heard that the Kings Lounge and surrounding area was the Hellbanianz territory and kept our eyes peeled for some hard Albanians though did not run into any problems. Bottles of Nigerian’s best selling beer, Star and Guiness Foreign Extra were available behind the bar.
