NOT: Wood Street Bar & Restaurant, Wood Street, Barbican

Even with 50% off via toptable, I don't think I could recommend this pub's food. It may be ok for a drink, and its waterside setting makes a nice alternative to the eateries inside the Barbican Centre, but our meals were disappointing: uninspiring rib-eye; tasteless chicken and fried fish encased in a tortoise-like batter shell.
