Lovely bar and restaurant in the middle of Shoredtich. Nice staff and very nice funky modern atmosphere. They have an absolutely astounding selection of cocktails to choose from, including their own takes on classics, as well as the classics themselves. The drinks themselves were delicious but it’s definitely worth going for food too, as their Mexican dishes with a twist are really really interesting and delicious. The cheeseburger tacos are incredible as they are delicious and taste exactly like a cheeseburger! The chilli beef fries are out of this world and the chicken bites dipped in sauce are to die for! Prices are high but not bad for London and especially Shoreditch, and the quality matches the prices. All in all it’s a very nice place to come for drinks or lunch for something a bit different and social. You can order and pay via your phone and the food comes pretty quick.

Lovely spot spontaneously found as our original motive couldn’t cater to us again. We got there after 10, so the main building was empty. Their outside spaces was full though and had a nice vibe. They closed the outside space and everyone moved inside. Still didn’t change the vibe though. Good selection of cocktails and the bartenders were very helpful
The decor was beautiful, bright, bold and vibrant, I had a good feeling about this place, well I was wrong. You cant order at the bar or have waitress service, it had to be done on the phone App. My friend and I both tried to order and we both had difficulties. I saw a particular cocktail I wanted, but we couldnt find it, so when we asked, the waitress went to bar to ask, SHE TOOK 20 MINUTES. Luckily we managed to figure it out in that time and I ordered a different cocktail. My friend ordered a vegetarian Burrito, when it arrived it was cold, she asked someone to warm it up, they say No. The staff weren't very friendly, hardly any of them spoke to us! Having a ordering App is all very well,but takes away human communication, the social aspect of going out. We were both very disappointed with this dining experience. We will not be returning here.
Really cool place for hanging out with a large group of friends for sure! Drinks are nice, really cool how they present it, and the vegan hamburger is really delicious!! We sent a really good time there as a company hang out after work.
Officially one of my favourite cocktail bars in London!! The venue is really large, the decor is impressive, it feels like being in Mexico! Their selection of cocktails is pretty great too. I loved the Flamingo cocktail, it came in a cute little inflatable flamingo 🦩 I will be coming back for sure!
