The Big Chill Bar is a great bar full of cool people. They have a great selection of beers and wine, just like Cantaloupe in Shoreditch. But, the Big Chill Bar is still not half as good as a good ol' night out in the legendary Vibe bar around the corner.

The Big Chill is a wicked bar but by far the best thing about it is the people (much like the festival). It was a strange feeling to go out in Shoreditch and meet people that are actually willing to engage in conversation.



The Big Chill Bar comes highly recommended!

The Big Chill Bar is generally good if you are with a group. It is mostly for people who are locals. Go to Turnmills afterwards though.

The Big Chill Bar is great, though the name doesn't really deliver on a Friday or Saturday night, when it is extremely busy. Any other time at The Big Chill Bar more or less guarantees you some nice, chilled music and a relaxed atmosphere.

As far as I can determine, this place is not popular with the ridiculously trendy crowd, so if you would class yourself as 'ridiculously trendy', maybe there are better places on Brick Lane for you to pose the night away. But for everyone who doesn't think your choice in drink is a fashion statement, it's a great place to spend a relaxed Sunday. Highly recommended.

Stepping into The Big Chill Bar was like taking a step back into 2004. The Big Chill Bar itself is just a bar, nothing fancy, but there's something about the clientele that make it seem so much less than that.

Overly dressed indie kids, bad music...I even saw someone drinking a mojito. Not sure if it was ironic or retro, or both, but whatever.

The Big Chill also has a bit of an awkward layout, but at least there was room to dance drunkenly inbetween other people's conversations.

I love The Big Chill Bar. It's ideal for meeting peeople and is not a bad awkward second date place. Top drawer and it's got wicked sofas.

There are a few people whose mums have bought them a beaded necklace and now they think they're Pete Doherty but where hasn't? The Big Chill Bar is a top place, love it. Nice drinks.

The Big Chill Bar is Brick Lane at its best. The couches are magic and the food and drinks are all you could hope for on a relaxed Sunday afternoon. Wicked music policy too.
Summer sees the BL crowd taking over the pavement in front of the Big Chill.

I love the Big Chill Bar! It has the best atmosphere and is a great place to just hang and chill. I'd recommend it to anyone who likes cool, but not pretentious, spots to watch the world go by.
