A fantastic bar, with a great atmosphere and some of the best and friendliest bartenders in London! This is by far one of the best bars in central London and I would highly recommend anyone in search of a night to try out the Escapologist!

Great cocktails and nice ambience but of the two times I’ve been here it just takes so long to get a drink (even if not a cocktail) you spend most of the time alone waiting for the person to bring the drinks back. Perhaps they need to consider table service?

Went to the ABBA brunch, 10 older WAGS loving life! Great show, great atmosphere, staff super friendly and extremely tolerant as we were up dancing the whole time and were probably in the way! Absolutely brilliant day out, not sure how we are going to better that for our next night out. Maybe a repeat trip? 5*

Quirky little bar located below street level. Great range of cocktails - with nice little touches like the strawberry starburst and the tiki glass. Also, we happened to visit during the length happy hour which is basically 241 cocktails all evening. Amazing value. The bright neon lights in the upstairs entrance drew us to this place before and we booked a table for seven people. However on arrival we were told our table was not available... not ideal. We had a couple of drinks at the bar area whilst we waited for a table to clear. Would have been five stars if we hadn't needed to wait when we had already booked.

The drinks were quite good and loved the design of the bar, but it was a bit too loud, so we could not really have a conversation.

Booked a Ladies Abba Drag Brunch & all of us had an amazing time. We stayed a bit longer as the music was still on. The Staff and Entertainment was on point. Would definitely recommend this place. Location is perfect too. 👍🏼😊 The interaction between the Entertainers and public was fun. If need to let your hair down with some food and drinks than definitely the place to go to.

Nice cocktails and you have a quirky inside and a lovely outside if weather is good. Happy Hour is the best and location is pretty central, not far from Covent Garden.

Absolutely brilliant experience - the Drag Queen and singers were excellent really involved the crowd and really had their work cut out running around the venue but they were great! Food was pretty good and the drinks kept coming. Have been to ‘bottomless’ places before where you waited ages for drinks - absolutely not the case here! Service was brilliant! Would absolutely come again - thank you
