Porn-Star martini
Marcus G.

This was such a groovy bar to come to, and the prices weren't bad at all. I ordered the porn star, martini, and took advantage of the special that they were running (buy one, get one). I was thinking the music, and overall the aesthetic vibe. I would definitely come back here.

I was pleasantly surprised to come across this bar during a recent London trip. The inside is beautifully decorated and very detailed, especially all of the collages in the restrooms. I was delighted to find that the cocktails were Buy One Get One- blame Gloria (me) for that! I was disappointed that they do not sell merchandise. I tried to buy one of the bartenders shirts but they weren't giving it up! (my offer still stands- name your price!)

We had so much fun at Blame Gloria. The songs were on point and so much fun to sing along and dance to. I enjoyed the drinks and the overall vibe, would recommend to friends looking for an evening drink and fun night

This place was a really fun time. The bartenders were very friendly, lively, and attentive. The decor was super "Instagrammable" and fun. The music kept us off our seats and dancing. One thing I appreciate as a girl with a little sister is how safe it felt to us. Going to bars/clubs can sometimes feel scary, but Blame Gloria made us feel at home.

What a fun spot nearly hidden in a central location! Head downstairs to find a very bright and colorful bar reminiscent of Miami in the late 80s/ early 90s. I was fully expecting music from that era but it was a mix of old and new. There are two seating areas, suspect one may open for dancing later in the evening. We arrived in time for a nice surprise, happy hour! 2 for 1 drink specials from the cocktail menu from 4-7pm weekdays. Great drinks too, well made. I will also say that they had one of the cleanest and coolest bathrooms I have ever seen in London. A definite plus! I will be back for sure.

Lovely Bar in Central London! Had a fun night before going off to watch the Avengers: End Game. Happy hours is between 4-7pm. Their selection of Cocktails are good, there's a lot of varieties to suit anyone's taste. Midnight Flower, for those who like a fruity cocktail, is honestly a must try! The layout and decor of the bar is very snazzy. Although narrow, it has enough room to dance around to their wonderful music. The bartenders are friendly and fun to be served by.

Good vibes !

Cool bar with a fun vibe. Great happy hour deal (2 for 1) and the drinks were interesting/thoughtful!

One of the more creative joints in London I've been this trip. Very fun & lively decor and ambiance. The bartenders are fast and effective with a few of them having quite a good sense of humor on top of that. The cocktails are creative just like the environment they're brought up in. Try the plum sake negroni for a classic with a twist but I'd you're in for something a bit fruitier and modern I recommend the pornstar martini. The happy hour is from 4-7 and it's basically two for one as long as it's the same cocktail. Bring a date and explore the cocktail menu for a fun night out!! Cheers!

Flight Club - Salt and Pepper Squid

Flight Club is such a fun way to spend time, have dart tournaments and try a variety of delicious…read moreappetizers. FRIES WITH TRUFFLE CHEESE The fries weren't as crispy as I would've liked, but the soft bite similar to mashed potatoes was pretty good. The cheese itself really carried the rich flavors of the truffle without overwhelming your tastebuds. Such a decadent cheese. SALT AND PEPPER SQUID The squid meat itself wasn't over cooked which is easy to do and makes it feel like you're chewing on a tire. Not the case here. The squid was fried perfectly, nice and crispy first bite. The garlic aioli complimented the batter they used to fry the squid in, very tasty. PEKING DUCK LETTUCE WRAPS These lettuce wraps were the perfect two bites sized appetizers. Such a flavorful and well cooked duck. The cucumber salad and lettuce helped bring the intensity of flavors down so that you could enjoy every bite. There's a full bar, but service is a little slow and congested. Staff are really nice and friendly. The dart games are so involved where each player can have their selfie taken and name displayed on the board. You can compete as teams or against each other depending on your chosen game. At the end, there is a final game stats to show who won and a group photo to conclude all the fun. A fantastic way to test out your dart skills and have fun with your loved ones!

Came for a quick drink and a bite to cap off what was already a terrific evening. Maybe it was…read morebecause it was kind of (not really) late and there weren't many other places open (aside from the first place we tried across the street who told us the kitchen was closed even though they were open for another 3 hours) but the place was packed! And it was loud. I guess technically it was a darts place and so there was a lot of excitement near the dartboard area. The bar staff were all buzzing about shaking their shakers and pouring drinks. It was a great vibe - apropos for a Friday night. Ok we got the little bit lychee drink (subbed vodka for gin) which was excellent with what looked like a dark dahlia floating on top. I wanted to try a British beer and got the magic rock saucery session pale ale (saying its name is like a built in sobriety test). The ale was definitely IPA but with a really clean finish. And because I'm a pig, ordered the fries with truffle cheese. Wow that was so so good! Shoestring fries with a heavy drizzle of truffle melted cheese. I can't really complain about the super loud music since it probably suited the main clientele and was really good (club versions of many 80s songs). So it looks like a really fun joint for the young locals with some older folks who maybe stumbled in like we did. Really nice bartenders and front staff. Thanks for not giving us a BS line to keep us out like the other place.

Came here for pre-theater anniversary dinner with my wife. The ambiance was somewhere between that of a trendy club and nice bar. There was a mad scientist vibe with the lights being industrial vibe and some metal decor. The music was thumpy and loud enough to remind you it was there. It made me feel a bit out-of-place as somebody well past my 20s, but also a bit cool or being there. You really come here for the drinks. We got the pipe dream, smokey old fashioned, honeypot picante, and one other I can't remember the name of, but which came in a flower pot. The pipe dream and smokey old fashioned were likely the best. Overall the drinks were more visually appealing than traditionally good and the visually appealing ones tended to have ingredients that weren't as top shelf and/or they were just too sweet. Not bad, but disappointing for what we'd hope. The food was the opposite. I had low expectations and the food wasn't amazing, but was better than average. We got the bao buns, crispy duck pancakes, panko halloumi, katsu curry, and hot honey pork tacos. They arranged for it all to come out in time for us to make our theater show, which was nice. The bao buns and pork tacos were probably the best. Neither blew me away, but both were solid. The katsu curry and halloumi were standard of what you might expect. The crispy duck pancakes was maybe as advertised, but it would have been nice to have some moistness or substance to the dug vs. it basically being crunchy salty bits of something. Overall, this wasn't a bad meal, but it wasn't quite what I was hoping for either. We may be back, but we'll probably try other things first.
