Catch
Despite the awful pun of the name/address, Catch is one of the better bars in the area. It has a laid-back vibe and some good music. Often free to get in to, and always busy, it's so much better than those wanky bars you get round Farringdon and Moorgate.

Although slightly caught in the "are we a bar or a club" dilemma, they generally manage to be both over the 2 floors. Worth checking out.
