Eddie Sharkey

Feels just like being in a cool dive bar in NYC. There's no other place like this in London. Friendly staff , great selection of beers , bourbon and Whiskey . Oh and an amazing jukebox

Jordi Llobet

Crowded on the weekend. Good music . After 22.00 you'll need to pay to get in. Just look up inside, if you are drunk enough you can leave your own bra

Stuart Hall

The best American style bar in London, no doubt! No matter what time of day you go in, the lights are low, the beer is flowing and the juke box is spitting out the tunes . A great night out! Read more

BarChick

Ladies - if you're broke, or just loving it, then hand over your bra or knickers for a free drink. Only you won't get it back as they hang them from the ceiling if you hadn't already noticed! Read more

BarChick

A dark and dirty American dive bar that knows how to party. Beers , bourbon and a LOT of bras on the ceiling. Get your date to hand over her underwear and she’ll get a free drink Read more

Evening Standard

It would be a waste to visit this place without taking advantage of the vast selection of bourbons , rums and tequilas . If you’re really skint – and a lady – take note of the bras on the ceiling. Read more

Pål Buckingham

Brilliant venue, awesome music , but it's a total topshop rock experience overall...

Charis

the way bars should be! I live nearby and cant believe that i have such a drinking spot that close...for the first time, I am becoming a local!

Hayley Miller

Worth going for the music and to see the bras but gets very packed

Clea Romeo

Happy hour before 8pm. They make a great whiskey sour

Thrash Hits

As well as a great jukebox and all the liquor you'd ever want or need, here are real saloon swingdoors in this place. They're fun. Read more

BarChick

They've got good beers , but don't mess about, get stuck into the Bourbon , have one of Adam the managers Old Fashioneds or hit up the Guatemalan rums . Read more

Julie T.

Perfect if you’re looking inspiration for a bra

Andrew Girvan

Single malts might be listed on the menu but don't expect the bar staff to recognise the names of any when you try to order. You're asked automatically if you want them on ice.

A Y

Bangin' tunes , good drinks and friendly staff . Shirts and ties need not apply.

Alex Curiel

Frequented by a rock crowd. Nice atmosphere but not my thing (was dragged there by a friend)

lenny naar

Made me take my blazer off at the door. Keeping up the dive vibe.

Jessica Dacchille

Doing dive bar right. NYC approved. Happy hour 6-8pm!

matt bowden

Make sure you look up when you down your whisky

Giovanni Giuliano

If you are a woman you can win free drink bottle if you leave your underwear!(unfortunately I'm not)!

Vic McGin

Get in early while happy hour is on.

Telfer Boyd

Great selection of american whisky - try Sazerac rye for a special kick...

Ben Lander

Whiskey sours are indeed the way forward! If you're feeling flush ask the bartender to upgrade the bourbon ...!!

hidding bob

Door staff are horrendous. I was with a group of say 20 people and I was the only person of colour in the group and the only one in the group refused entry. It was humiliating and unfair. Never Again!

RealPubGuide

An absolute delight. What a gem if you like dirty American style brilliance, this is for you.

Mike Murphy

Best jukebox in town - whisky sours aren't bad either (via Scoville) Read more

Hannah Avis

Music , beer , whiskey

Paul Kardous

Fantastic jukebox , great Old Fashioned (as long as it's not rammed)

Funmi Ogunleye

Dive bar with bras hanging from the ceiling

Evelyn L

Whiskey sours . They know how to do 'em right.

Lizzy Nakielny

Open til late. Fun vibe

Nigel Glasgow

Late night drinking

Tom Burns

Bras everywhere

Matt Barber

Hilarious times

Andrew Smallwood

Come for the happy hour !

Mary S

bathroom wisdom

Pathetic Dress code and door staff . Avoid this uppity, reversed snobbery at all costs. In fact avoid Upper St.

Marc DOOM

Crap no suits!!!

Stu Pflaum

Won't let you in if you're wearing slacks. Door man is a dick. Worst bar in England.

Jeff Sullivan

Best bar in Islington.

Antoine Cédrol

No suit! Don't even try...fuck I have to come back
