I must have walked past this place a 100 times, its just off the beaten track and near the cool hip but bit expensive area of Shoreditch. I was told this place was a really cool bar, so on a random weekday, I walked past here with my girlfriend and it didn't seem too busy, so we walked in and went to the bar for a drink. We were then told, that we needed to book and that the place was really busy. (It wasn't, but you have to go through these hoops with these types of places) We were then showed our table to sit at, then we went up numerous times for different drinks, asking the barman to make whatever he fancied, each time, being a great drink. We also had some little bits of food which were amazing too. All in all, I'd recommend this place if you want to book and spend a bit of money and have a great time, the drinks on their own are worth the visit.

Cocktail lounge that oozes with trendy. With an interior design that is a mix of the sublime and the ridiculous. At just shy of a tenner a pop, drinks are expensive, but all spot on - so you won't manage to have just one. Make plans to go on elsewhere, if you don't want a super-expensive night!

My experience over the past decade of this entertainment venue is awesome. So much so my daughter and I had "Love letter" tattoo's tattoo'd onto our feet so we will never forget how amazing this place is. Spent time last week there and AGAIN enjoyed the food, the cocktails and the ambience - will be back next week sometime before we have to leave for South Africa again ......... will always be back !!!!!!!!!!!!!

The eclectic & somewhat kitsch decor at Lounge Lover is very much in keeping with the location. You either love it to bits, or hate it to death. Same goes for the cocktails - I've had friends refuse to have another sip of cocktails they first ordered but then termed 'revolting'/ 'disgusting'. Fortunately for me I love the decor, and the cocktails (the $azerasc in particular). Expensive, but hey - you're getting table service and there's a picture of a woman giving you the middle finger in the men's.

Love it! Some of the best cocktails in London, both selection and quality, quirky décor (think 2m vases, taxidermied hippo head, and eclectic chandeliers.) and a cool vibe. Expensive, and slow service, but always worth the trip.

If you want amazing cocktails in Shoreditch, here is the place to be. It's hidden down a little alley way off Bethnal Green Road, so be careful not to walk past it. The espresso Martini is an especially good post work fix. It's quirky inside, funky décor and great vibe.

Loungelover provides a cool, relaxed environment to chill out with friends whilst enjoying amazing cocktails which are beautifully created. Loved the private room which appeared for us when they drew back the sliding doors (it used to be their art gallery sometime back - so am much happier with the comfy sofas now in place). Particularly recommend the vibrant coloured Utopia, which also tasted fab. Highly recommended!!!

I really loved the cool eclectic decor in Lougelover, even though we came on one of London's rare sunny days, I didn't mind hunkering down in Loungelovers dark cosy womb. And the cocktails live up to the promise of the decor, dark and sulty. I had the chocolate mistress and it fulfilled all my sweet toothed desires. I had sips of others people's cocktails and thy all looked as pretty as a picture and tasted as good as they looked. Highly recommended

An empty dolls house filled with candles, mismatched plates hanging on the wall and big gold letters above the bar which spell out 'LOVER' on the wall make this place so achingly Shoreditch it almost hurts. A cross between an eccentric old woman's front room and an art student's living design project it's hard to take everything in at once in this place but thanks to a whooping long cocktail list chances are you'll be back enough times to adjust to the hip factor. Only downside is the drinks are a tad expensive so you may have to restrict yourself to one or two and it can get really busy so if there is a group of you/ or it's a special occasion book in advance.

Slightly expensive but incredibly lovely, cocktails at Lounge Lover always feels like a special occasion. Decor is beautiful and interesting, the smell of incense is warm and welcoming and cocktails are uniformly delicious. Table service can be slightly slow when very busy but you can always just visit the bar if you don't want to wait. Book in advance as seating space is limited and it is always busy.
