Possibly my favorite place in London. Amazing setting, excellent cocktails and just killer live music every night. Perfect place for some relaxed listening to classic covers of all stripes.Upvoted 2 weeks ago
Kweku FolsonMarch 24, 2015A very fancy bar, with accordingly fancy prices. £65 for 4 gin and tonics. However it's a great place for the start of a date and they will be suitably impressed. Recommended!
Upvoted 2 weeks ago- Chris ShanahanAugust 16, 2019Ambience, Mixology, Music & Quirkiness. The staff are knowledgeable and smartly dressed, the menus are well thought out and the live music adds a great vibe. Ask for a pin lapel badge of Scarfe! ♥️

Maria KSeptember 9, 2018Amazing and innovative cocktails in a beautiful setting. The cocktail menu with caricatures by Gerald Scarfe is an attraction in itself.
Evina DiamOctober 19, 2018Lush interiors, sophisticated atmosphere, loved it! Cocktails are expensive, no doubt about that, but they are fabulous! If you like sweet cocktails, try 50/50. A surprise!
Brad TOctober 15, 2014Nothing like finding a great craft cocktail bar. Plenty of great house drinks but don't be afraid to try the old standards.
- KostasDecember 7, 2022Definitely one of the best bars in London. Great music (at least when we visited there was a fantastic band playing well-known songs). Must visit.
Ed BorisMarch 24, 2015Fantastic bar, great service, the barman made us testing a fantastic homemade cocktail. Expensive, but worth it.
Lizzie PNovember 2, 2017Absolutely worth a visit for the live jazz band, cosy atmosphere & antique decor 🎺🎤 🎼
- AndreasJune 28, 2021Probably the best bar in London. Excellent drinks, attentive staff and live jazz 🎷
.March 9, 2017Try: lamb chops, grilled cheese sandwich, mozzarella pizza and masala chips👌🏼 modern Indian food.. live jazz music 💃🏿
Bogdan ZadorozhnyMarch 11Amazing vibe, live music, perfect ambiance, friendly and fantastic service (shouts to Andrea). Just a really pleasant, social place, what a bar should be.
Ierax HolargeusJanuary 20, 2022Perhaps the best hotel bar in London. Nice cocktails, live jazz music, spacious environment, outstanding decoration. You can’t be left unimpressed. A must-visit.- Kry StianJune 21, 2015Great live music, friendly staff, cool drinks and tasty bites. Their sofas are incredibly comfortable and just beg for long conversations.
AmberFebruary 9, 2019Cozy spot for a good drink and open late. They also have live music at the weekends. Not your typical hotel bar.
GregWasThereJuly 15, 2019Amazing bar. Perfect for a business drink or a late drink after a dinner in the area.
Emmanuel XSeptember 16, 2022The vibe and the cocktails are always on point. But get here early there's a strict capacity policy at the door
Anna SzypkowskaApril 4, 2019Lovely place for a cocktail. Expensive as one coctail is £20 but the ambiance and live jazz music is worth it

Brian DammeirJuly 2, 2016Life jazz, awesome cocktails, surprisingly good Indian food. Basically heaven on earth. Prepare to spend for it, though.
Levent AkgermanFebruary 10, 2018Go and enjoy ragtime, blues and bebop with Nick and Kitty on Saturdays starting at 9pm!
Avocado FuzzMarch 12, 2014Whiskey, Whiskey, Whiskey. The selection of Campeltown's is extraordinary and reasonably priced.
- Dim light, candles, piano music, and overpriced cocktails. What could be more my speed?
Dan M.December 29, 2013Whisky is the name of the game here. Scotland, Japan, Scandinavia and even Taiwan
