Disappointing experience on 15 April 2023. Having been to the bar quite often we were surprised to see such an abbreviated cocktail list. The bartender appeared disinterested although later told us he was the new manager. When we asked him if he could also make any “classic cocktails” in addition to those on the menu, he said he couldn’t (apart from a Martini). We also waited a very long term for service and then for the drinks to come despite only a handful of tables being occupied. Such a shame as this bar used to be a place to get cocktails to rival some of the well known central London bars.

The ability to get food at high tables is good but it is very dark and the music loud so not the best atmosphere for dinner probably better to keep it as a bar. However the staff were lovely as were the food and drink.

A great little atmospheric spot under the main restaurant, serving pizza from the place next door which was a perfect accompaniment to a bottle of Gavi. David the ops manager is an asset to the place. Nice and dim lighting, good drinks selection, good music. We received aperitifs on arrival and some nibbles. Will be returning soon!

Did not eat here as we booked the Gin bar, which doesn't exist anymore! Pictures are deceptive on website. Not at all what we expected. Very bijou and loud. Felt uncomfortable. Left after one drink. Shame
