Purl London in City of London

Had a great experience on a ‘cocktail masterclass’ here. Lyla was amazing at sharing and teaching her years of knowledge with us; and such a lovely, welcoming and big personality who made it so much fun. The cocktails were fab and we stuck around for extras. The place is full of character and would be a great venue to take someone on a date. PS it’s not just about smoke and balloons / showey cocktails here - this is cocktail making at the top end for all the classics, and full of innovation with carefully invented infusions and recipes. Well done and thanks to the team.

Could not have picked a better venue for our cocktail masterclass. The staff were ALL engaging, experts and made us feel right at home. Thoroughly enjoyed all the suggestions and simply loved the vibe. Will be returning in the near future. Please give this place a try...so worth it.

Lovely bar, great service and great cocktails! Great atmosphere, perfect place for a date night and catch up with friends. Special thanks to the lovely lady who was going above and beyond for unfortunately didn’t catch her name and her colleague Enzel.

Nice surroundings rubbish service. Group of 6 - order 6 drinks, with 4 of them being the same. 5 drinks arrived, with only 3 of the 4 that were the same. Get the basics right before trying to dazzle customers with the fancy cocktail tricks/accompaniments.Ordered more drinks, including a bunch of champagne cocktails. Drinks took ages to arrived. Asked for a bottle of champagne with 6 glasses whilst we waited - was told they didn't have any champagne......so what're you making the champagne cocktails with hmmm?Turns out they were making champagne cocktails with prosecco but charging the champagne price. Not cool. Staff took no lead in offering to resolve the situation. Finally negotiated a discount bill with service charge removed. Can not recommend this place.Place needs: more staff, better communication, better knowledge of customer service and how to handle situations when things go wrong.10 DAYS LATER: Received a call from the bar owner gathering info. Purl still trying to get to the bottom of this bad experience, possibly. Response to complaint seems as disorganised as the drinks and service.PURL - contact me!

More like drinking cocktails in a second hand furniture shop than a cool speakeasy. Place desperately needs a refresh - peeling paint, broken lamps, tired and split seats. The cocktail list was pretty mediocre. Really wanted to enjoy this place but sadly left with nothing to recommend about it.

Lovely bar, great service and great cocktails! I had my birthday celebration here and the service leading up to the night as well as the service on the night was brilliant. Great atmosphere, perfect place to have a lovely chilled party and catch up with friends.

Took over an hour to receive our cocktails, and the server only checked on us once while we waited. The cocktails were artistic, but taste was nothing special at all- especially for the prices. Purl has a lot of potential but we didn’t feel it lived up to it at all

Really vibey speakeasy style bar underground. Loved the decor and drinks were delicious and aesthetic. Great spot to chat for ages while devouring their delicious cheeseboard with bread. Would’ve loved a few more snack options but otherwise it was amazing!

Love coming here every time! Staff is super friendly and attentive! I was surprised the rating wasn’t higher on google but I love finding places that exceed their rating.Dog friendly, but make sure to call ahead : )

Amazing Cocktails, lots of surprise elements and a nice setting for pre-drinks. The staff are brilliant 😊
