The happy hour deal is good, with you getting two cocktails for the price of one. I like how the whole menu (which is massive, by the way) is eligible for the happy hour price. Two for one is a good deal but I wish you didn't have to get two of the same cocktail. I got the lychee martini and honestly it didn't taste much like lychee at all - also every lychee martini I've had in the past was made with vodka and this one was made with gin (fine, just unusual). The music was so loud I could barely think - my ears are still ringing today. I wish they had turned it down a little bit because it was really overbearing. The overall bar is nice but a little bit cramped. There was limited seating at the bar and only a few tables that were all occupied once I got there. The bartender was nice. I wouldn't rush to return although the happy hour deal is good for what you get. read more

Be At One - Lychee martini - Cocktail Bars Near Me - London, XGL

Best mixology bar I've found in London! The menu of 'house-drinks' is usually only a starting place for me. We usually try several of the menu drinks to get a feel for the bartender skillz, before ordering what we really want. But; surprise, surprise! The menu drinks here are actually great! My wife loved one of the chocolate martini style drinks (I forgot the name), and she barely drinks ETOH. I started with the Porn-Star, expecting mediocrity with a catchy name - but it was great! I'm a huge fan of vodka mojitos, so the Twisted Mojito was next. HOLD YOUR TEXT MESSAGES; this is the best mojito I have had in a long time!! (and I drink a lot of Mojitos!). I quickly drank another; still perfect!! Great service from the friendly bartender, fair prices, and EXCELLENT drinks. We will be back before we leave London! read more

All I can say is 2-for-1 on Sundays! I couldn't believe that I was getting this type of deal in London! The bartenders are generous with the liquor and the menu is so cool! It'll help you choose what type of drink you'd like based on the liquor, if you want it to be refreshing or sour and based you on your mood. The bartenders are helpful when it comes to choosing too! We ended up at this bar 3 times while in London! The security guard and bartenders remembered us and welcomed us back. The atmosphere was good and everyone was just enjoying a drink after work. We tried many drinks on the extensive menu. I mean...who can pass up 2 for 1! I almost expected the drinks to be overly sweet and simple, not at all. They used the same finesse one would expect from an upscale restaurant bar. This bar sets out for drinks coupled with fun and it accomplishes just that! read more

See all

Great spot to get a cocktail and dance without paying the crazy entrance fees of some places in the area. The staff are incredibly good fun - the doorman had a really lovely chat with me (which was a great change from standard gruff London bouncers) and the bar staff were standing up on the bar to get people dancing, drumming against the walls, and playing vuvuzelas to call last orders. The cocktails are tasty, strong as they should be (not watered down), and the place was buzzing with good, cheesy song favourites. It's just a shame it closes at 1am, because I happily would have stayed much later I was having so much fun! read more

I actually like this place during the week days than weekends. Ok, so you do get the gold diggers coming out in drove after work hours. Test it yourself. All you need to do is buy a couple of £150 champagnes and watch them come over to you. Atmosphere here is generally good. Everyone is out for a good time. Bar tenders are awesome and they look like they actually like their jobs. When I am around Liverpool Street area. This is the bar I go to for a quick drink. read more

Very good cocktails. Bartenders are really nice and very pro on building your cocktails up. Recommend it! read more

Be At One - 2 for 1 cocktails ftw! - Cocktail Bars Near Me - London, XGL

I'll give it to Be At One - they've brought cocktails to the masses in a very easy format. and yet. It all feels so try hard, but I don't actually think it is. I just don't think i'm the type of person who enjoys this kind of bar. It's a party bar, make no mistake, and everyone is having so much bloody fun, I'm actually jealous. I wish I was the type of person who liked this bar. There's light swinging and loud music and 2-4-1 deals al the time, with loads of younger city types out to have a good time. and yet. Honestly - it does a great job at what it sets out to so. Unfortunately, that thing, is just not my thing generally speaking. But as my mother always said "it takes all kinds." read more

Be At One - that is one long island iced tea and two of the kale spinach drinks, very good - Cocktail Bars Near Me - London, XGL

It brings tears of joy every time I think of this place. Happy hour at B@1 was the best discovery my friends and I had ever made. The place is small, and during happy hour this place becomes packed. Just know that there's a downstairs area where you might or might not be able to escape the crowd. My friends and I had birthday drinks once. We booked the downstairs area and it was awesome. We had cake so they refrigerated the cake for us until we were nice and merry. When we were ready for cake they even brought out plates and silverware. This bar is especially nice during the summer when it's still nice and bright outside during happy hour. Grab a seat by the window or outside and sip your cocktails as you mock those still at work across the street at Allen&Ovary. Just kidding. Those cool kids from A&O are probably at happy hour getting trashed alongside us second class kids. The only difference is that they get paid gazillion pounds to go back to the office after the best hour of the day... happy hour. These memories make up the reason why this place brings me joy. ** Apparently if you book your birthday part at b@1, they'll give you bar credit towards drinks! ** read more

I had a lot of fun here yesterday but I think the place is horrible and something you have to really be in the mood for. We were already pretty drunk when we got here at 2030 which made it alright. The upstairs is dominated by the bar so the entire area is quite narrow. We managed to get some stools by the counter at the back. There's also a downstairs but it was way too loud. Anyway, really loud music - mostly generic popular songs from various eras (cheese I guess), alright ish cocktails and a really weird crowd. Don't go here sober (unless it's for the 2 for 1 they apparently have). read more

So silly, so fun and so decent! The cocktails aren't what I'd call 'haute drinking', but when you're there with mates - you get a good bit of banter, good drinks and a nice 'warm glow' when you leave! 2-4-1 drinks in happy hour also pleases my wallet, which in turn pleases me. Not had a bad evening in Be At One ever... Customer service = makes it! read more

I have to say this Be At One is probably a TARDIS because it's definitely bigger on the inside. As a big fan of this chain I have visited most of their bars in London and I never paid too much attention to this one. The main reason is that the ground floor always seems very small and crowded so unless it was warm enough to spread out to the pavement in Spitalfields I would not bother to go in. That is why when my friend Emma booked her leaving party there I was confused as to where the 30 people she invited could possibly fit on a Saturday night. Turns out they have a basement which is ideal for a group of 30-50 people, has its own bar and bartender just for your group and offer the privacy and exclusivity you would want on the night. A tiny mishap on the night, the power cut off for a bit and it took a while to get it back, even if the upstairs was not affected. However the staff were very nice and friendly like they always are in B@1 (it is part of how they have to behave) so they kept checking up on us to make sure we were ok. The rest of the night went on without any problems. The cocktails were great as always and there have been some new additions to their menu, which was also recently redesigned. The music was great for dancing, pop, RnB, hip hop etc. For me it is the perfect bar as you can dance all night and enjoy cocktails but without the crowded, dark, stinky environment of a club. If you are thinking of visiting, it's a pretty good option but I will have to recommend the Covent Garden Russell Street B@1 or the Soho Greek Street ones instead if it is your first Be At One experience. read more

I found this place by following some people that looked like they were out to have a good time... no, I was not stalking... just following... closely. Ha.... actually, I did not go in that night and came back Sunday night for 2-4-1 drinks... WHAT A GOOD CALL! My #1 selling point - they made me one hell of a Sazerac. It takes time and know how, hence the extra £ to get it. I had the option of having it with bourbon or rye whiskey and of course ordered bourbon. The bartender says to me. 'Americans always want bourbon.' Hmmm, go figure. Our bartender was awesome... she looked a little like Rachel Dratch. Oddly, I met her again at a bar in Shoreditch, where she and a friend pinched my ass. I guess that makes us friends. read more

Omg visiting from the states on business and this bar stole my heart. Great music, service and just a good time.

Was taken here by a friend who wanted to take advantage of the 2-4-1 cocktail deal. The bar is really small and super packed during happy hour. Expect to wait at least 20 mins for your cocktails to be made. I decided to try the peach caipirinha, and was disappointed. There was tons of born sugar in there. The glasses were both quite small and half of it was filled with ice. In essence you are paying for 1 full drink and they split it into 2 separate glasses. read more

This place is a bit of a nightmare on a Friday eve around 10pm. The saving grace is that downstairs there is a bar with tables....their lame version of a speakeasy I think, but did the trick for a nightcap. read more

About as good as this sort of place can get; great staff; great cocktails; good location; two for one before 7pm. Mamamamamymymymymojito

Great place for a night out with friends. The bartenders and staff here are so incredibly friendly & welcoming. 2-4-1 drinks in happy hour is a great deal. The bartenders here are knowledgeable and have recommended some great drinks. My favorite was the cuban zombie. The area inside is small but if you get here early enough you can settle in an area. Great customer service (one of the best in London) & great vibes here. Will return! read more

Lovely, great music, great selection of cocktails, very good service and ideas from the barman. Very good atmosphere. read more

Be at one is easily my favorite cocktail bar in London with 2 for 1 on drinks all night for students, exclusively at the farringdon branch. The staff always recognize us and are up for a friendly chat. Great music and very quick service! read more
