Venue Testimonials
Just great. We didn't have a booking but managed to grab a table for an hour. First visit and I wasn't disappointed. It really does feel as though you've invited yourself into someone's home. Drink prices aren't too bad. Make sure you have a good look around the whole place. It's just great and so different.

Just happened to be passing by and spotted this bar on the way... The drinks are priced extremely well for Central London and were crafted expertly each time. Overall the service is definitely going to bring me back here!
Oscar P
12/10! The perfect spot for catching up with friends, playing boardgames, grabbing a cocktail or having a full-blown boogie in the kitchen disco. Feels like a genuinely lived-in flat, loved it.
