I came here last night and it was fabulous!! The bartenders are cute, and the men here are all the succesfull types. The music was cool, and so were the drinks. They have such a nice variety of cocktails, some of which are perfect for the girlie girls. Try the Hallo Kitty, it's really cute.
I've read alot of comments on this bar, saying they're pretentious and snobby. I've never had that feeling at this bar. The clientelle might project that kind of idea but I think given the chance the bar here is great, the staff are professional and very willing to have chat. The drinks are astoundingly good. It's just the fact that it's underground that gets me, great for winter maybe not so great for summer.
When I first came to this bar I wasn't all to impressed just another cocktail bar with something to prove, this was 2 years ago. I returned here last week and found this lounge has become a really stylish and relaxed lounge bar! The staff were exceptionaly helpful, friendly and very informative about the food and drinks. Though the physical bar hasn't changed, the atmosphere has just peaked into a perfect balance of a night out and a bar to just relax in. Good food, drinks and service puts this bar back onto my list of places to take friends. If you haven't been here in a while try it again, if you've never been here try it for your first time, I doubt you'll be dissapointed.
This is one of those spots that you don't really want everyone to know about with fear that they may get too busy. I really enjoy coming to this bar after work. After the second time I came here the bartenders all knew my face and were desperatley trying to predict my drinks (I tend to chop and change when in a good cocktail bar). If you're unsure about what to have ask the bartenders for a recommendation, they'll talk you through the menu and explain to you all the knicks and tricks invloved in the construction of these perfect drinks. I'm sure you've guessed I come here quite regularly and I think I've tried most of the cocktails on the list making me qualified to say "Well done guys I'm extremely impressed with the standards this bar keeps and the quality surounding your work."
We booked the central table with the ice block for quite a few of us, most were left standing but the whole evening was great, we had some nibbles which were delightfull, and the drinks were amazing, their champagne by the glass is a "Blanc de Blanc"!!! It's really a trendy place to be. Great for small parties!!
Another great place to have a drink in London, the perfect place for a hen night. Gorgeous guys, pumping music and enough alcohol to drown in. If you're anything like us avoid the B55's if at all possible. This idefinitley is one of the more happening night spots in London.
I thought I'd give Shochu Lounge another chance after reading some of the reviews, well they have turned their story around. They still have a 2 hour return on tables, but this is becoming quite common in popular restaurants. The staff are really nice and informative. The prices are a little steep, but it's worth it. All-in-all I'm impressed and will go again.
Wow!! Don't just come here for a beer! If you want to experience the cocktail culture first hand, this is the place to be. Their cocktail menu is littered with great ideas, and they make amazing classics. A real hint is to ask for a Mai Tai, I promise you haven't had a Mai Tai till you've had one at Shochu Lounge. Great place!! ****
