Tim BrownNovember 22, 2010Loved the bar upstairs and the lightbulb ceiling! Was introduced to some funky Eastern European house tunes!! A must!
Kay McMahonMarch 26, 2011Friendly staff, no coat check queue & fast bar service despite being rammed. What's not to like?- Namer MerliMarch 13, 2013
Katerina KerrSeptember 21, 2015Pretty cool place in London at the moment. Basement bar is pretty nice
Richard FoggJuly 18, 2015Distinctly average cocktails. And don't you DARE go off menu: computer says no.
Joy VJanuary 21, 2016Huevos rancheros needs more love, the beans are sweety, not like mexican beans :(
Alistair ScottMarch 7, 2012Not quite enough tables, but still spacious. Great with a group, bad for a first date!
Emma BJune 23, 2010Art, atmosphere and ping pong, one of the nicest bars in Shoreditch. Watch out for the communal toilets
Adnan JAugust 14, 2010I actually liked this venue, ping pong table, music ok, crowd the typical funny haircuts and thick rimmed eye glasses with cheq shirts.
Cool and laid back. Live band downstairs, they have a special dress down 'no jacket' policy
Tom CallardJanuary 16, 2010Great for a hungover Sunday. Get a strong coffee, fresh oj and the full English to accompany the Sunday papers.
Victoria VeeMay 17, 2013Came here for lunch with my company today. Tha place looks quirky and its probably fun at night, but unfortunately the food was less than average.. Not impressed basically.
Don't dress smartly - e.g. suit/tie as I saw lots of bankers etc. refused entry on Fri/Sat. Very "Shoreditch", but good food and atmosphere.
Its ALL about BigInJapan last friday of the month! and their awesome Cocktail selection. Read more
Del NobleMarch 4, 2019Hipster enough to be cool, but not enough to be pretentious. Decent if limited menu- ChiaraFebruary 12, 2012Their cocktails have the weirdest name ever!!! (Shoreditch twat, mothers ruin i.e.)
Miles TinsleyFebruary 13, 2010Very nice. Have the french toast followed by smoked salmon and scrambled egg! Highly recommended.
BarChickAugust 12, 2013What a well rounded hangout! http://barchick.com/find-a-bar/london/the-book-club

"The ground floor is the best, great atmosphere without being deafened by music. Buy your drinks upstairs though - shorter queues. Ideal for groups of 8+, never had a problem getting in"
