I really enjoyed the Vibe Bar solely because of its South African BBQ. I'm not much of a bar hopper and could care less for that area of town, but I must say, the food in the courtyard is really delicious and worth checking out. The burgers are huge and served with a warm cheese sauce, which makes them great even in the winter.

got to be in the running for the worst bar in London.
The rudest door staff known to man and about half the number of bar staff they actually need.
They also seem to employ some bizarre men:women ratio, so if you turn up in a mixed group, prepare for the blokes to be refused entry until some other men leave to 'balance out the numbers'
In short, avoid this place like the plague. It is dreadful

The worst venue I have ever been to, with double booked rooms and totally disorganised. Some of the staff were really cool, but others, not a brain cell between them. I was at a few events there recently and it was hell. Apparently the music shouldn't have started til after the event I was at, but drowned out this event to the point where it became a joke.
I won't bother with it again.

Forget about the bar!
Go for the South-African BBQ
Absolutely awesome!

I went to Vibe bar for the first time last week for a friends birthday, and I was pleasently surprised to find out that it lived up to expectations, especially as most trendy London areas often oversell themselves.


The atmosphere at Vibe Bar was great, and everyone was dancing. The drinks were very well priced and the selection was fantastic too. The music was of a very high quality too thus making vibe the whole package a great night out. I will definitely be going regularly.

I have lived in the East End for eleven years, and around the same time as my arrival the Vibe Bar opened. The last time I ventured into its muraled interior was some time ago, and my recent visits were a shock. The Vibe Bar is still fresh and distinctive and is miles above the local competition in regards to its music, its staff, cleanliness and its vibe.



I would reccomend this bar to everyone and anyone who is visiting London, the UK and Brick Lane as everytime I have visted recently the music policy has been varied but consistently well put together.

Vibe Bar rocked! I liked the young artsy crowd and the female DJ was really good. The drinks weren't that pricey, which is good since its London. The cold weather didn't stop me and my friends from chilling outside on the courtyard benches. They have tents with heaters and the catering is delicious too.


They have South African barbeque which I didn't think would be so awesome in the winter. Vibe Bar is a place worth checking out, especially if you like sitting outdoors where it's nice and warm. Trust me if you are tired of the loud music inside, you'll appreciate the heated tents.

The Vibe Bar... let's see now. If you're looking for a dark, dingy hell hole full of people who've yet to find the word 'shower' in their vocabulary then you've found the right dump. Sorry, place.

Vibe Bar has the nerve to charge an entry fee and once you've realised it's a waste of time and money you face the 'paparazzi' of unlicenced taxi drivers outside who are like the preverbial flies around... And rude to say the least.

To sum it up - God awful place. Stick to Soho, Islington and Covent Garden for a more sophisticated bunch and a place where you don't have people ushering you out of the toilet (seriously!) There seems to be this myth that Brick Lane is trendy. Can't see it myself.
