    This is one of the best outdoor concert venues in London. The historic Georgian square is beautifully floodlit at night. The sight lines are great throughout the venue. The stage is high so you can see it while you're at the bar. The sound is superb -- haven't been disappointed yet at any gigs I've seen there over the years. All tickets are general admission, but they don't oversell the venue so it's still a comfortable experience during a sold-out event. Tickets for their limited summer concert line-up tend to go quickly, so make sure you sign up for their email updates so you don't miss out.
