As we strolled by, the sweet sound of the pianist's melody caught our attention and beckoned us inside. We were immediately greeted by an incredible trio of bartenders, surrounded by the most exquisite cocktail ingredients. We had originally intended to stop in for a quick after-dinner drink, but once we saw the impressive selection, we couldn't resist staying for more. I ordered an Irish coffee, but with a twist - a unique Irish whiskey that was simply divine. And the Biscoff cocktail we tried was out of this world! With the pianist serenading us with soulful blues and the staff going above and beyond, our evening was truly unforgettable. A special shout out to Matty, who showed us true hospitality and made us feel right at home. Thank you for an extraordinary experience!

The bar is very good - it has a great atmosphere, good service and the cocktails are nice too. It’s one of the best cocktail bars I’ve been to in London although the cocktails are maybe not the most unexpected. Cucumber Collins was interesting to try and really had a significant cucumber flavour in it. I’d probably not repeat it but no regrets and an interesting light one. Mango fizz was also light and nice, but the mango flavour was not quite prominent to me. Banana gimlet was really good, super flavourful and rich taste. Hummus was just okay, the focaccia was a bit underwhelming but their smoked almonds were just incredible! Unfortunately they don’t have tiramisu on the menu even some reviews mention it. They cook it on special occasions like Sundays or something. To me it’s a big miss and I’d really love to see some desserts in an Italian cocktail bar and tiramisu would be a great fit

There’s a lot of thought and effort put into creating ingredients and well-balanced cocktails without any hint of pretension. Their service is excellent. Very importantly: it doesn’t seem like they take it personally when something doesn’t match your palate; they’re mainly concerned with finding a better match. The bar itself looks great and is comfortable to be in. I think all of these things make it a great bar to go to regardless of whether it’s to meet up with someone or go alone.

Intimate and stylish cocktail bar. Love the atmosphere in here and the waiters are all super friendly. The menu offers a variety of classic cocktails as well as new and exclusive recipes. They also serve food and there’s live music from 9pm onwards. I really loved I and the cocktails were delicious, I’ll definitely be back.

Amaro bar was a highlight of my recent London visit. Well decorated, incredible bartenders, and fitted with an overall inviting atmosphere (plus the drinks were strong.) The whiskey selection was solid as well. Will come back in the future for sure!

I had the Dec's Martini and my friend had something with peach (completely forgot the name). I absolutely loved my martini, it's made in house with the ingredients infused / without shaking, poured straight out of the bottle into a chilled martini glass. Veryyy good

Amazing neighbourhood bar that focuses on leaving their guests with the best experience possible. World class cocktails with minimalistic presentations, crafted to perfection. They have a great selection of vintage spirits and cocktails and also a special 20 Vintage menu every Wednesday. Me and my friends tried a big variety of unique amari and the staff was beyond professional in answering all of our questions and entertaining us with interesting conversations. These guys always make sure to make you feel at home and that’s why we go back! You have also the opportunity to take some bar bites and snacks along with your drinks. Could not recommend it enough! 10/10 experience

A fantastic cocktail bar where they really know their stuff. The cocktails were perfect. Our young host, Matty, was very knowledgeable and friendly. He had such a passion for all aspects of his business; from the cocktails themselves to the distilling of the various liquors and mixers, all done in their sister bar on Earl's court road. This is a real quality establishment that we hope to visit regularly. Thanks Matty!
