The Nightjar in Hackney

Outstanding cocktails and vibes! Nightjar is a unique piece of Old Street’s nightlife and never fail to impress. I tried their ‘Soul Kiss’ smoky cocktail and was completely blown away by the depths of flavours and contrasts it delivered! The pianist on stage that night also gave a fantastic performance that my family enjoyed dearly. Piece of advice though: book well in advance because this place is popular (for all the right reasons!) Cheers 🍸

A beautiful little spot full of character. We only did the live piano session but cannot wait to return for the full evening next time! Great for a romantic date!

Had a great time at nightjar on a Friday evening. Made reservation for jazz night and the band was very good. Cocktails are great as well. Note that Jazz night booking costs about 10 pounds per person and they also add service charge.

One of my favorite speakeasies in London. You need to book, but it’s worth it for the live music from 9-11pm. Drinks are great, albeit pricey. Then again, you’re paying for the vibe. I’d recommend for a date or a group of 3-4 max.

Excellent ambience. Great list of cocktails. Early 90s setting is excellent. Awesome hosts gives in details of every cocktails and garnish. Would recommend

A gem in the city. Nice interior with friendly staff. This place has space for sitting only. The entrance is quite obscure and easy to miss with just a small sign on a brown door. However, it's just before or after KFC depending on the direction of travel. I enjoyed live music here. Check it out...

We are having an amazing time here! The live music is great as are the drinks but our favourite part was the amazing service we received from Claudia thank you for an awesome night! #sorbet

I highly recommend visiting (better book a table) Nightjar for its craft cocktail making!I had the privilege of sitting at the bar because I was on my own and from watching them at work and engaging with them, I can say they take their job seriously. And that's important because (I don't know about you but) I hate bars where they give you half-arsed drinks and still asking you premium prices.Here at Nightjar, even if you don't fall in love with your drink for any reason, you still know you just drank an absolute original with carefully thought-out ingredients (half of which probably homemade and unique).And the atmosphere is the best thing about Nightjar; that's what London should be about.

The best place for cocktails and live jazz music in London! Amazing cocktails and combinations with small bites. Very friendly staff which can help you choose your drink based on your taste. Highly recommended! (Photo: soul kiss)

Still one of the best cocktail bars in London. Operationally run very well, smooth greeting and being shown to table. Prompt service and great music which was a jazz blues three piece the night we went. But above all else is the quality of cocktails, each one is a delight from the blend, the choice of glass or cup or container, the garnish or taste accompaniment (like tiny serve of sorbet).. each drink has character and drama and just a pleasure to consume.Such a great night out and well worth the visit, transporting you back to glamorous New York prohibition speak easy era
