Jojolounge Bar & Restaurant

Tried to book here in advance and no tables showing available on open table, just looked back on the website, the day before and found that there were tables available, so booked. When we got there, there was a sign saying, no need to book. When we went in, the venue was very empty, another couple having a meal and what looked like a few people having drinks after work. We were greeted by a lady, who I think may have been the manager, she was very friendly and got us seated and drinks very quickly. Our waiter was quite eager to get our order sorted, not a problem at the start, but once we had finished our main course, he was straight there, wanting us to order desserts. We were just finishing our drinks, when the waiter came over and asked if we wanted anything else, we said we were fine and just the bill, would be fine, to which he pulled the bill from behind his back and was straight back with the card machine, not giving us chance to properly look through the bill, there is already a tip amount added on to the bill, so you feel pressured to keep the tip on, as it comes with a note saying "all tips are given straight to your server". They were setting up and moving tables around for an event the next day. Went to the toilet before we left, they are very much out the way, down a steep flight of stairs, along a corridor, then through a door, down another corridor, if I had known, I would probably have waited, till I got home, as didn't feel safe going all that way on my own.

A very quiet place but amazing food, no need to book just pop in, very welcoming at the start. But eager to pay the bill quickly. But don't get that to put you off this is a great place to eat.

We came across this place simply walking around and seeing the sign for "2 for £14 cocktails" on Saturday. The cocktails were really good, we tried all 3 of their specials. The place itself is very crisp and clean, clearly very new. The only reason I've given 4 stars is because later on in the evening a bad smell of sewage was coming from the toilets. I assume this is just teething problems that comes with owning a new place and this shouldn't put anyone off going.

Lovely new cocktail bar with friendly staff. They do all classic cocktails even if some weren't on the menu. Was able to get a space on a Saturday night because people don't know it yet and it's just a few minutes from new street.

Highly recommend this place. Outstanding service was second to none, Daisy and Bighan were amazing and so helpful and made our visit feel very welcoming. Thank you both!
