I have never been to 1001 bar in the evening, but to be honest - every time I have been here in the afternoons, I have had a great time.
Chilled - good music and you can have a coffee or a beer. No fuss.
You can eat if you want to with a happy selection to choose from.
I come in with a laptop to escape my office sometimes, and it's always been a cool hang out where you can work if you need to.
Interesting people from all walks of life - and good for those who like people watching!
I can only imagine this place to be fun in the evenings.
1001 would have been a great place to chill out if it wasn't for the rude bouncers. They just make you wanna not go in. First point of contact and they just put you off! If you're lucky enough to get pass the ridiculous bouncers and manage to get in the place is quite cool and non-pretentious.
It would have been a great venue to chill out if it wasn't for the IMPOLITE or should i say RUDE bouncers. They just make you wanna not get in! First point of contact and they just put u off. Once you get in the place is quite cool and non-pretentious!
Visited there last Sunday, Had a great time, Good music friendly atmosphere and everyone was chilled out either chatting, dancing eating, drinking reading or on there laptops. this is definitely going to become a regular spot to chill out and unwind. Also to those that don't like the place there are plenty of other venues on brick lane so take your pick.
I had a moment's trepidation on entering when I thought that this was going to be an achingly trendy place for desperately trendy people. It turned out to be a very chilled out venue. I
went there in the afternoon for a Little Episodes event and it was perfect for this as it was large enough to be open and relaxed, yet intimate. People were reading, watching the bands, clicking on laptops, enjoying beers and coffees and juices. Comfy chairs and sofas. Tables. Unobtrusive decor. A library (Book Orphanage) for those who want to chill out and read.
I thought the drinks were a bit pricey, but it is London. I got over it.
The staff were helpful and friendly.
In the afternoon and early evening at least, this is a cool place to do your own thing and be your own person, with or without a book.
This has to be the coolest club in London Ive ever been to. Im in 2nd Yr at uni in London and ive done all terrible student nights at terrible west end clubs (cough on anon cough). Trying to explore new and better places I discovered Cafe 1001. The main room is spacious to rave to DnB, electro etc. and then the indoor cafe area is nice place to relax from the music which then opens up to massive outdoor seating where u can enjoy a chat and a smoke. The vibe at this club is incredible and it's full off social and interesting people. No entry cost is great and drinks aren't too dear. The bouncers are very chilled and don't follow you into toilets. I live in Hammersmith which is ages away from bricklane but this doesn't bother me, I catch the morning tube!
THIS PLACE IS THE WORST CLUB-IF YOU CAN CALL IT THAT- IN THE WORLD. DO NOT ENTER!
The best club in the whole wild world :)))))))))))))))never ending fun;)
I loved this place. The barmaids were very helpful. I am a dwarf you see and i had a problem with this big good-looking guy twirling my girl but luckily he left. Thanks Cafe 1001.
Cafe 1001 is one of the most gorgeous places in which I ever been in London. I'm not talking about elegant restaurants or snobby clubs, Cafe 1001 is a relaxing place where you can listen to very good music, from reggae to house or electro house, and just rest in the faboulous sofas, all lit by aromatic candles.
Cafe 1001 is the crappiest place I have ever been. It's just awful. Please people if you dont wanna get robbed and or killed, I would advice you to not go there. There was no entrance fee, so anybody, even a homeless person could enter. Cafe 1001 is an awful place!
Cafe 1001 is a great retreat for an afternoon coffee, where you can sit upstairs in candlelit comfort or relax outside with a beer and BBQ. The food is all very reasonable and delicious and available throughout the evening as well.
There's always exciting events going on at Cafe 1001, with free jazz nights on Wednesdays and short films on Mondays. I go there whenever I'm in the area, or head out to Brick Lane just to have a drink with friends there. I love it!
Cafe 1001 walks of life mingle like buffalo on migration - a great spot for a cheeky beer ;)
