The Book Club

Delicious cocktails and a great environment to have a good time with friends or do computer work alone. A very large, open space with lots of seating and great ambiance. Excellent stout beer on tap

A bit of a grungy place after 9pm, but always lively and fun for a casual night out. Expect loud hip-hop music and a long queue (with £5 cover) on weekends. They serve a good hangover brunch as well .

Went to an event called Bar shorts , it's on the basement floor. It was a free event and enjoyed it so much! You could order food as well and drinks. Defo check if there are any events going on! :)

This is my favourite place in London! It's a cafe , a bar a restaurant and a club all at once! When you go for breakfast please have the pancakes ! You won't regret it!

For the uninitiated American waiting in vain for a waiter to come by, order and pay at the bar . Yes it's written on the menu, but really, who reads instructions?

The pancakes and the coffee are good. Friendly staff and nice atmosphere all wrapped in a cool interior. Definitely will be back.

Love it here. Great space, perfect atmosphere..lots of outlets and free wifi . My drink with tequila and tobacco was the best cocktail I've had in London. get here.

Amazing place both to party & see great bands at night, but also for a chilled brunch at weekend or an antisocial moment thanks to free wifi . Like the idea of the "make your own" hangover Bloody Mary !

Came here on a sat night and the music was so fun! Great vibe, but the bar situation is annoying. There's one in each floor and a huge line to get to a bartender . Other than that, I loved it.

Quintessential hipster coffee shop in Shoreditch. Free wifi , lots of space, big windows, and great food/coffee. Not a ton of outlets; busy but not hard to get a table.

Poached eggs on avocado toast is definitely worth a try ! Could have been a bit more runny but it was still delicious !!!

They don't take reservations . On the weekend, arrive early to avoid queuing. House breakfast is good, but not the BEST. They have live music . Great place for a long breakfast with friends.

Delicious cocktails (they have a nice raspberry Bellini for those who wants a light one); you can also play ping pong or piano

Trendy spot for food and drinks. Good for groups or dates. Drinks upstairs, party downstairs.

Scrambled eggs with smoked salmon (£9.50) just hit the spot. Great coffee as well .

This is the King of East-end cool spots for hanging out or enjoying alot of fun stuff going on - like the ping-pong upstairs or their left-field events and exhibitions downstairs. Good eats too.

Great for working during the day. Great for partying into the night. This place has it all! Try the Shoreditch Twat cocktail if its your first time!

Fun fact: they have a real time Facebook fan counter! Don't believe me? Like their Facebook page and look up the wall on the left-hand side of the bar . Read more

Cool pancake digs for young ping pong players and hip , dressie-up types with swords and anime shoes .

LOOOOVED IT. Staff was attentive. Nice looking people on bar area. Underground dance scene in the basement . I really loved it!

If you ever look up "Where are the hipsters ?", perhaps the first result would be book club! Relaxing atmosphere in the afternoons, party freak in the night. Ping Pong is a great +

I'm no nacho expert but the nachos here are the best I've ever had. Large open space with a relaxed atmosphere .

Reasonable (for london) prices for cocktails . Doesn't have an amazing selection of beers but has plenty of space and quirk for a good night out.

I love this place! I only wished I lived in London to come here more often. It also has a ping pong room for some chilled out plays

Head upstairs for ping pong and food, although with friends and cocktails you’ve got everything you need downstairs http://barchick.com/find-a-bar/london/the-book-club

Cool place, I had a really nice negroni . If you go a bit later at night you might have to queue and the music is cool but loud .

"The Book Club has a typical ‘East London feel’ to it. We were struck by the quirky bareness of the place. It had furniture that were all odd and are a mixture of long wooden tables , desks and sofas ." Read more

Breakfast was nice and not expensive at all. You have to order at the bar and pay immediately, which I didn't mind.

Welcome to the house of fun! Well almost, think old Victorian school house turned noughties fun time hangout that’s got everything from great cocktails to ping pong . Read more

Interesting bar and restaurant . Comfortable chairs to spend hours reading or working. Very limited selection of nonalcoholic beverages.

They serve really good breakfast too. Try the buttermilk pancakes with fruit . Or the vegetarian full english breakfast

This commendable bar-club comprises one expansive room - divided by a wall with an oval hole in the middle, giving the illusion that half of Hoxton is here - and a small pool room downstairs. Read more

Great meeting point. Sometimes have strange door policies at the weekend.

Great open space and atmosphere! Eat something, drink whatever you want, play ping-pong...

THE cool place to have a follow-up in London. Eclectic jukebox , big food, ping-pong, knitting, free-wifi. Quintessentially Shoreditch. We love it! Read more

Best soups in Shoreditch (except for the beetroot one) at £4.95. Ask for extra toast and you might not be charged.

Cosy and cool Shoreditch feel. Nice place for a casual drink with friends.

Wifi password is thebookclub , all lowercase. Try the tagini and pinot group rosé for a yummy vegetarian lunch !

Brunch and great atmosphere ????????????????Super cool spot!

this place is wicked! great drinks as well as the nicest brekkie . had the best of times here.

The food is always great. Autumn menu includes pork chop with mustard mash and braised Savoy cabbage . Yum.

Good place for drinks and music . Not much on the menu goodwise (just snacks and a burger ). But theyhabe wifi , space and good tables.

The sea bream is overall great, smoked trout nice but quite small. Roast ham and burger are the winners!

If you like video, animation and motion don't miss the Screen Social once a month!! Really good selection!

Such a cool atmosphere don't miss that out

Cafe by day, hipstery dance venue by night. Nice lunch options and free wifi for daytime lounging .

Sweet spot, excellent RnB DJ . Bar is small for service & packed. Prepare to Q. Funky friendly spot .

Great for lunch , has veggie options and free WiFi . Cheap enough too!

The Pear Crumble (cocktail ) is delicious! There's a table tennis table on the ground floor and a (small) pool table in the basement . Nice :)

Fantastic breakfast menu - sort yourself out the morning after with a plate of american style pancakes with bacon .
