Welcome to Versus, where Londonist takes like for like and decides which one is more likeable. You don’t need Londonist to tell you how many jerks are on Wardour Street. However, you might require a bit of help deciding which one’s got the best sauce. No, this review isn’t about the peeps sidling between Oxford Street and Shaftesbury Avenue but about Mr Jerk and his rival Jerk City: two competing Caribbean restaurants on the......

Londonist goes to church and gets stuck up a ladder covered in pigeon shit. Before we start, we’d just like to say something to the Russians. Oy! Stop nicking our church designs, and repurposing them into spacecraft. Only we’re allowed to do that. Thank you. Right, on with business. We’ve all seen St Anne’s, Soho. It’s pretty much the only tall churchy thing in Soho, sitting behind a junkie-proof fence to the South of Wardour......

We just got sent the above photo in a text message. Yes, it's a bit of a shonky photo, but it makes us very excited - it's a tale of two pubs. Once upon a time there was a wonderous pub just behind Centre Point called The Conservatory. Stocked with a bar full of very cheap drinks (£4.50 for a bottle of wine in W1??), an amazing table football kit and a quiz machine,......

Fitzrovia wasn't always so. It was once plain North Soho, though it was far from plain. The poet and chronic Sohoitis victim J. Meary Tambimuttu Christened the area 'Fitzrovia' after the Fitzroy tavern on Charlotte Street, where he frequently became pissed and, in his intoxicated state, hired nubile young receptionists. There have been repeated failed attempts to rename the area Noho (NOrth of soHO), in the New York fashion. This is silly, as SoHo and......

If you don't want to see Nikki get evicted tonight and you're planning on a bit of dancing and drinking then these are this week's suggestions. Friday: Club Popjustice: Our favourite pop website, Popjustice, has been taking over the wheel's of steel at Wardour Street's Trash Palace for the last few months, and after checking it out a few week's ago we think we can thorougly recommend it. If you just want a fun......

For me, the ideal Sunday starts as a carry on from Saturday, as when the clock strikes midnight I'll probably be found dancing happily to all things smelling of cheese at Wig-Out at Ghetto. Hopefully though, upon leaving the club, a cab will miracously appear and I'll be tucked up all snuggly in bed by about 4am. With no reason to wake up early, I'll gradually arise from my slumber about 1pm whereupon my hunky......

With all this book reading, tv viewing, lecture attending, film watching and Ken chasing, we at the Londonist towers have realised we've forgotten to do one vital thing. We've forgotten to dance! Upon this realisation we immediately rushed to the nearest Office and bought ourselves a pair of comfortable, yet stylish dancing shoes. We've just put them on and by heck we're going to use them. Ladies and Gentlemen of London, beware, the Londonistas are......

For the first time in a long time, there is no Popstarz at Scala tonight leaving London's indie gay & lesbian boys and girls without their Friday night home to dance in. Popstarz promoter, Simon Hobart, was found dead on Sunday morning having suffered from a fatal head injury. Like many of us, Simon fled to London as a refuge from the narrowness and isolation of provincial suburban life. Starting club promotion when he......

Londonist is getting particularly booozy lately. Along with our brand new Pub Quiz reviews we've also decided that we need to be featuring a few more of the capital's more glam establishments, just to balance out the pork scratchings you know? And as it's October now, the sun's beginning to wane, and we can feel guilt free about heading into the depths of our favourite drinking holes after work, Londonist thought we'd kick things......

We like Peroni beer here at Londonist. In fact, our last Londonist get together was held at Luigi's bar on Wardour Street, specifically because it's one of the few places they have Nastro Azzurro on tap. However, their latest rebranding exercise might be doing them more harm than good as far as we're concerned. Here's what they're going to do: First they're going to open a "minimalist boutique" in Sloane Street which will be......
