Formerly the Bluejay Jazz Lounge, and re-branded by the new management, FM maintains the same commitment to live music that made its predecessor such a treasured Shepherd's Bush haunt. It also has a great comedy night, the bizarrely named Knock2Bag, held on the third Wednesday of the month.

With a late license now keeping things going until 2am during the week and 3am on weekends, this is a viable alternative to the areas nightclubs and horrendous chain bars.

The bar, located downstairs in the basement is fairly dim but candles on tables add to the ambiance and Thai staff running proceedings means cheap and cheerful Thai food is readily available.
