What a lot of fun we had here. We celebrated a birthday at this speakeasy themed bar based on a…read more1946 British train station. The entrance and staff were done up very well. The vibes inside from the furnishings to the menu were all post WW2 celebration themed and set the tone. We had a few rounds of drinks that were WW2 and train themed. The drinks involved various people from that timeframe. Several of the drinks were to be shared by 2 people and all were pretty pricey. I can drink pretty much anything so I ordered the drinks based on the unique containers they were served in. Our server said all the drinks on the menu were served with the apparatus they showed in the menu. When my companions tried ordering the shareable "Is it a pot of Mustard" drink they were told the bar didn't have that container. Hmmmm... Later I ordered the "Operation: Top Up" so I could get it served in the Jerry Can pictured in the menu and the drink just came in a boring glass. When I asked where the Jerry Can part of the drink was, she said unfortunately prior patrons had stolen them so they didn't have the Jerry Cans anymore. HELLO? That is the reason I ordered the drink! Didn't she just tell me the drinks came as pictured? Why didn't she inform me that it would be served without the prop? I certainly would have changed my order if she had done so. Other than several of the drinks not having props available, the drinks were pretty well done and hit the spot of the themed bar. With the bill being higher than expected, I would recommend coming here for only one drink and make sure you ask if your drink will have the prop as pictured in the menu.

It would have been nice to have a fan at least, but we were able to move over to a table next to an open window to get a bit of air. I felt bad for those that were working upstairs all day. The food was decent and drinks were good. If I were back in the area, I'd probably come back.

Look for the hidden door next to the restaurant and slither your way through a passage of stairs. The service at the front was very nice, everyone was very friendly. We showed up an hour early and they were kind enough to accommodate us. We tried a few of the cocktails from the menu and were very happy. Drinks were pretty well balanced and not too sweet or too strong. I did ask for an off menu drink that was gin based with citrus and not a basic classic cocktail hoping the bartender could drum up a surprise for me that I can't make at home and they brought me a gimlet. It was delicious though so no complaints. Overall great experience and I would recommend!

I like their nautical aesthetic as well. They have all the usual suspects on tap. Nothing ground breaking but all their beer offerings were fine. Prices were also average as well. Side note: I didn't realize that this place held such esteem in rock n' roll history. When my husband informed me that it used to be a hang out of David Bowie and other well known musicians, it definitely became a lot more interesting. Also, they play some pretty good music here. I was happy to listen to Blondie during my visit. Worth a visit.

As far as I know, you can only get in here with a membership or as a guest with a member, since it's a 'private club.'

We went in the opposite direction on Rupert Street and found this inviting courtyard bar. It's marketed as a gay bar but... The clientele was more mixed than gay. Hey, it wasn't a big deal to us. Especially as we sauntered to the bar bathed in pink and royal blue dayglow. Boys bellying up to the bar. Oh yeah, we home. The print was really small in their comprehensive cocktail menu, but that didn't stop us from ordering more libations. Stop judging us. Jamie went for the £12.50 Margarita, and I continued my Cosmopolitan streak with their £12 one (photo: https://yelp.to/RsyQWeRD5R). We went back into the courtyard to find a table. The leafy terrace and strings of white light were quite inviting, and we ended up hanging out in this sanctuary until they closed at 11PM. Cool.

Luckily we found some stool seating by the front and were able to enjoy some beers and take in the ambiance. There's an upstairs that is accessible by a very very narrow staircase which even has handles for support, all part of the fun lol!! Beer: We tried out the Guinness (great pouring process!), peroni, and a local ale which the bartender allowed me to sample. He was very helpful and walked me through the different ciders they had in stock and even how you could add fruit syrups to sweeten the flavor. What makes this place even more memorable was the helpfulness of the young guy bartending. He helped us plan how to get to Gatwick airport extremely early the next morning and we owe him a big one!
