The Escapologist

Cocktails are brilliant, pizza was a revelation, music however is deplorable. We had to endure pop tunes that I cannot imagine anyone under the age of 21 listening to without cringing.

One of the best cocktail bars in London. Inventive original cocktails , usually nice music , great and fun atmosphere

2 for 1 cocktails during 5-7pm. Shame the music is so bad (unless you like chart pop)

Excellent cocktails—the Smoking Jacket was a particular favourite. Can get rather busy.

Cocktails are average but the bar has a jolly party vibe and great music

Strange combo of Victorian surreal decor and terrible super loud pop hits from the speakers. Nice but expensive cocktails , wouldn't recommend.

Feels like a slightly classier version of Be at One, and that's not saying much. A place where hen parties wouldn't be out of place. Drinks are too expensive , and the music is too loud .

Try the pop-corn cocktail !

I never expect to wait 25 minutes for a drink in a bar . 10 minutes waiting with one person in front of me, then 15 minutes from ordering my drink to actually receiving it.
