Im so sick of reading reviews from people who are NOT students, the woman who talks about taking colleagues out is an office worker who should stop living in the past. Im glad she had a bad time as its for STUDENTS. I now vow to check out every single place in my gap year and give feedback from a real students point of view.

Used to be one of my fav places in Shoreditch, but after a very disappointing Saturday on 7 July 2007, I can honestly say from now on I'll spend my cash somewhere else.



We went to T Bar for a colleague's farewell when at about 10pm, we get told one of our other colleagues couldn't gain entry as he wasn't a regular or on the guest list. At first we spoke to the manager who replied: 'if the doorman didnt select him, then he isn't coming in!'



Then over the period of an hour 4 other of our colleagues were refused entry, with Chris the doorman saying: 'sorry they aren't the right kind of people..'. So those that of us (about 15 peeps) who according to employees of the T Bar are the right kind of people as we gained entry, left and met up with our other mates and headed to Mother at 333 where we had an absolutely fantastic evening.



So no more T-Bar for me and have taken myself off their mailing list. My verdict: the T Bar should've stayed closed down, there are many other places to spend one's cash in Shoreditch.

T Bar is, in one word, formidable! It's my best bar in London! Damian was just incredible Monday, the people looked good and the boss of T Bar is very friendly...

I went to T bar on a Friday night with a group of friends. It was extremely crowded and the crowd were slightly unfriendly. I'd recommend being very careful if you go to T Bar.

Went to the August bank holiday weekend 2003 Party in the Tea building just before it was sold (3 days of do what you want) and it was perfect. I went to the bar bit of T Bar three weeks ago and was pleasantly surprised. No queue, no door fee, cheap drinks, untouched interior - apart from a bit of a spruce up in the bar area, 2am licence, good dance floor and fantastic toliets.

The T Bar offers what Shoreditch is famous for - easy private partying. All the other bars are now empty as everyone goes there, with good reason.

I thought the T Bar was awful, the music was really bad skipping from Techno to 80's cheese, toilets are rank and the place is smelly and dirty. I've got nothing against the raw, underground warehouse look but the T Bar is taking the P. Don't waste your dosh!

I work in T Bar and I just felt obliged to put a post up in defence of our staff! If we seem moody or less than bursting with fruit flavour, I can assure you it is not because we think we're too trendy or arrogant to be serving our customers drinks, but probably because we're a bit tired at the end of a 10 hour shift in a very busy venue. I always endeavour to be friendly and polite and provide good customer service, and it upsets me that just because a venue is 'trendy', people decide any tired seeming member of the bar staff is automatically rude and supercilious! In my unbiased opinion (ahem) I think we're all lovely at the T Bar!

I was pleasently surprised by my Friday nite out in T Bar, especially as I had been told by a friend that 'the place was up its own arse!'


Fabulous music, with good bar service and a great gay-friendly vibe!

T Bar is not bad if you are gay.

What can I say about T Bar other than it's over priced with a crappy look and rude staff and management. DJs must be hard up to play this dive.

T Bar is without doubt the best bar in London. We came up en masse and had a great night with great music, great food, great drinks and great staff. What more can you ask for? T Bar is a must for a memorable night out.

T Bar is great and the monthly hip hop night at T Bar called The Rub is even better!

Oh please. I was unfortunate enough to be at T Bar on a night called "Family Night" and it was like being an extra in an episode of Nathan Barley. The DJ was top class and I'd guess that a third of the people there were the kind that are a pleasant surprise in any bar - flamboyant, adventurously dressed, some in drag, or just laid-back punters having a good time without being too self-conscious about it. But they were totally outnumbered by the sheer number of utter tossers, shouting at the bar staff, draping themselves and their sunglasses (yes - at midnight) over their friends and saying things like "well weapon". Sad but true. Sometimes a place like T Bar can just be too "now" for its own good.

T Bar has rude, arrogant staff serving in what amounts to not much more than a warehouse. Not only that T Bar is full of people who think they are cool. I would never go back.

Oh my god, I just love the T Bar. Full of the hunkiest men this side of Venice Beach. Paradise.

T-bar is a spanking new addition to the Shoreditch scene. And it's very good news. So discreet on the outside that it's a little tricky to locate - but once inside, you find yourself in endless space surrounded by the sort of uncompromisingly hip architecture that you might expect to find in a New York bar. On the whole, it is edgier and less poncy than its nearest Shoreditch rivals. And - amazingly for the area - the trendy bar staff are actually friendly. Definitely check out T - if only for the excellent cocktail list (make mine a Passionfruit Collins) and the simple but delicious food. Not to mention the longest bar I have ever seen...

I have started going to the T Bar in recent weeks and think it's an excellent spot. True, it's a tad big but it needs to be as it seems to be getting more popular by the day!
