Great bar! Great atmosphere, lovely people, cocktails are delicious! If your going to be hitting the cocktails hard try their 'massive Martini's' to share! Also loved their Evil & Strawberry ones - Yum! ;)

pretentious french manager who thinks he is god and very rude staff. I would never set foor in this place again, bartenders are completely useless and a waste of space. Very expensive. I would never go again. Pitchers and pianos next door is a lot better

I went to ladybird for my first time last weekend with a group of friends on a work do,
I was very surprised to be greeted by such friendly bouncers and all the staff were very polite and understanding.

When we had people sat at our booked table the staff quickly and quietly sorted that out for us which was pretty unexpected as the bar was so packed.
The cocktails tasted absolutely delicious and were definitely made up to scratch and worth every penny.
The music was great and the DJ even got a few of our requests in and what's even better is it is the latest open place on the whole of upper street; only closing at 4am.

I would definitely recommend this bar to any group of friends looking for a great night out with a great atmosphere. I'll definitely be going again :)

Me and my girls was out in Islington for a 25th birthday over the weekend (Sat). We ended up in several bars but the only late one seemed to be Ladybird cocktail bar.

It a nice and busy place with good party people, good looking men and the music was good to, if you want to get served then don’t bother, it takes forever, rubbish slow bar staff, we walked out after 10 minutes as we couldn’t get served but before I did I went to toilet which wasn’t fit for a pig...

I asked for my money back and we was told “Never”

I am only young but not sure my time was a good one.

The Ladybird left me feeling really annoyed. I have never written an online review before; but this time I really feel I must. I waited an hour at the bar whilst the pretentious bartenders (or mixologists, whatever they like to call themselves nowadays) spent at least fifteen minutes to create a single cocktail. Tasting, mixing, tasting again. I swear they are just getting slowly drunk in there. That is fine, I can appreciate people having pride in their work. But as I finally got my order in, and waited for it. I spilt one of the drinks (a simple spirit and mixer, £7.00). The barman made me feel stupid, with an angry look on his face. I was absolutely sober, it was just a simple slip. He made me another. And get this-- charged me for the spilt drink. £7.00. I told the bouncers whilst I was outside smoking. They just shrugged. Worst service ever. If their cocktails were the best on earth I would not step foot in there again. I gave them one star, but only because the system doesn't allow me to give them zero. There are plenty of other places to go in Islington where the drinks are just as good and the service is better.

Ladybird is a really good night out man, I loved it! I was there this weekend just gone, and thoroughly enjoyed myself. Great atmosphere. It was jam packed, but incredible nonetheless. I must agree with all those claiming they are going to have the venue as their Christmas work night out in Islington. If my company had not already made our plans, I would push for it. It's cool. I would highly recommend the Ladybird bar to anybody looking for a night out in Islington, or around the area, to enjoy great music, a great environment and beautiful women (and men I suppose, whatever floats your boat!) surrounding you. Check it out everyone. Highly advise it. Great night. Great drinks.

I was at Ladybird this weekend just gone, and it was brilliant. Just had such a great night. The music, the atmosphere as a whole was just spot on. I am now considering it as the venue for my christmas night out! We'll see... I am trying to convince my boss at the moment, I just think it would be perfect. The decor, to staff... everything! Such an exciting prospect!

I went to Ladybird Bar for the first time last weekend, and I have to say, it was one of the best nights I've had out in London since moving here a few months ago. It is a sophisticated yet cool as, late night cocktail bar in Angel. The music was awesome! I literally could not stop beating; great DJ set to be honest. The cocktails were fantastic and to be frank, all the staff are brilliantly charismatic and attentive. It really was great, and I look forward to going back with more friends and enjoying myself all over again.

I went to Ladybird Bar in islington last weekend and had the best time i have had in a long time. I went for my birthday, there was about 25 of us and we had reserved an area upstairs (which i recommend as it got quite busy!) None of us paid to get this place and i think they had about 4 djs on over the night! Even though there was so many of us all of my friends had glowing reports about the attention the staff gave them. We meandered between floors, with a great little club downstairs and the cocktail bar upstairs. The music and djs on both floors were on point! Hats off to you guys. The atmosphere reminded me of a lovely club i used to go to in Amsterdam. As late night bars go in islington and angel go, i think i found the best. Its on upper street opposite the islington green so i suggest you give their cocktails a try after a long day of sunbathing. I'm also happy to see they are doing some sort of festival over summer with loads of live musicians and djs. Bring it on. Thanks Ladybird

Ladybird is awesome! Such a cool little bar, until recently I never even knew it was there, and I must have walked past it a hundred times on Upper Street. They've spent so much time on the artwork down there, looks amazing. Does anyone know who did the artwork in the entrance? I love it! Was a Wednesday night and I was hearing tunes from DFA, Stevie Wonder, Stones Throw, The Knife etc. Try it one night, you'll probably love it.

the comments of ms burke are true to the spirit of lady bird.the ambiance is electric,fabulous,and healthy.

you feel the effort to make everyone happy.the clients were amazingly chic,sympathic,and young.

two evenings at the club ...never ,such a streak of fiesta,and allegria before.

the music takes around the world,from the best of jazz,to the best of rock,to the mystery of the orient.

ready to travel,just let go.never a place had procured such emotion.

excellent cocktail bar, probably the best in London! and its unbelievable that you can actually have delicious cocktails till 4 am!

Enjoyable and fashionable bar in Islington. I've been a few times and love the vibe. Take a visit!
