I like to have the odd cocktail here and have been doing so for the past few years. I have never once been disappointed with the service. The staff have always been attentive and informative. It's a quirky underground bar with an understated laid back vibe. The cocktails are wonderful and the canapes are a delightful complement.

The fact that it's seated with table service and is never jam packed means you can enjoy the space a lot more. This is one of my favourite bars in London and I'll keep going back. The rules (which have been consistent since they opened), are in place to give you the above experience. If you can't accept that then you can always try the Wetherspoon's down the road.

This place seems cool at first but they make you feel really uncomfortable, making sure you don't touch their (rip offs) "original" vintage props, and sit in the exact place they want you to sit.
Some of the staff are rude, full of themselves and should get a reality check. Unless they're not there to make money (?).
They act as members' club ( no suits!) without the knowledge or courtesy of one.
BTW, the cocktails are nice. normal London prices.

This cool little bar was one of my favourite places to go a couple of years ago. Although fairly expensive the quiet cosy atmosphere more than makes up for it, if you are looking for a nice place to catch up with friends.

I booked a table recently as a special treat for my friend over from America. I see him once a year. The booking I made was from 8 30 to 10 30. You can imagine my shock when I walked in and they said my booking was until 10pm.

At 9.55 the waitress came over and gave us the bill we had decided to have one last drink before leaving- an absinth. We were refused in the rudest way and told to just pay and leave. I do not think anyone should be treated like this when they have just been given a bill of £20 for 3 beers.

I won't be going back and I certainly will not recommend this place to anyone. The staff are rude and arrogant.

Once great bar gone very very bad

Horrid staff - utterly pretentious and very rude. Unforgivable given the very average standard of cocktails. There are other bars in London doing this much better - cocktail room at The Zetter, Colebrooke Row. Much better drinks and atmosphere. Very sorry it's become so awful, as it used to be really fabulous. Last three visits have been ruined by sheer awfulness of staff attitude, each time I returned to see if things had improved. Sadly not. So many brilliant bars in London, don't waste time here.

In a nutshell-

This bar is run by two miserable matrons!

My colleague and I took 2 clients to Lounge Bohemia last night... the cocktail menu sounded delicious, however we never got as far as sampling any of them as the very strange bar maid refused to serve my colleague a drink!

Won't be going back!

So I was told this place makes amazing cocktails, but during my brief visit last Friday, I experienced some world-class rudeness from the staff at the Lounge Bohemia.
My friends invited me to join them for a drink and when I turned up at 9:15pm, I found a couple of spare stools, so I helped myself with one and joined my friends. Shortly after that, a staff member approached us and said, 'Sorry but I am afraid you are not allowed to include an extra person at your table.' (Not word for word but you get the meaning)
Excuse me?
Her reason being we can only bring the exact number of people mentioned in the reservation. This is a lounge bar, not a restaurant. The place was not fully occupied with the spare stools lying around for customers, so it is definitely not because of 'FIRE safety' reasons.
She continued, ' I am afraid ONE OF YOU WILL HAVE TO LEAVE'. So one friend of mine had to rushed finished his drink and we got the bill.
Ironically, when we were about to leave, another two tables left the bar and the place is only 2/3 filled.
They may have good cocktails but I am certain anyone who have experienced their service will not return to this place.

Unwelcoming basement bar where the staff is really under everything even if the place was absolutely empty

What a shame that such a lovely venue serving such delicious cocktails is completely let down by the attitude of its staff. Pretentious, rude, arrogant and unwelcoming.
