    Great music playing, delicious cocktails and the staff were extremely friendly. There was a musician playing when we first arrived and she was also very good.

    A real gem of a place, small but very cute with excellent beers, bar food and live music. The guys behind the bar are first class too. Blink and you'll miss it though as it's tucked in behind Leicester Square. Well worth the visit.

    Such a lovely place to visit! We popped in for a quick drink and the staff were so charming and helpful. I wanted a beer and they gave me samples of 3 beers they had on tap! The Camden Hells tasted so much better than anywhere else I've had it, and the pale ale I went for in the end was deliciously fruity. My cousin's gin & tonic also looked delicious. The toilets are heated as well which was a bit of a surprise! There's some real care that's gone into this place and I would love to go back next time I'm in London.

    A real hidden Gem. It was one of the best atmospheres I’ve experienced in a London bar. The service was fantastic and wasn’t busy either.

    Classy sophisticated take on the traditional English pub. Excellent live entertainment as well and decently priced drinks. Also never too busy and rowdy - perfect for an afterworks drink. Great job guys

    live music was great, the service was second to none. It was my partners birthday and we were given a free drink to celebrate. Everyone was very friendly, will definitely return!

    This place is amazing. Great Gin and tonics and super cool ambience with live music starting Thursdays. Service is outstanding!!! We spent 5 days at the hotel and this quickly became our go to place for drinks. Matt was incredible, best service we had in London! Thanks!

    Walk through the door, and they're quick to grab you and steer you into a seat, but then leave you waiting forever before anyone actually comes to take an order. And then applying a 12.5% 'service' charge - just for drinks - is just a racket. They had a live act on - great guitarist and very good singer - but so loud, it was impossible to chat or enjoy the very expensive drinks. Could be a fantastic little bolthole, but completely ignores the customer experience.

    Very lovely pub at the heart of Leicester Square. The prices of beer is very good despite it's location. Beer prices are similar to the whetherspoons nearby which is very surprising. They also have a huge range of gin, whiskies and other alcoholic beverages. It's a small place but every time I've been there I've managed to find a space to sit. Staff are very lovely, and Thursday-sunday there is a live singer who are absolutely amazing. Staff and the singer definitely make the stay enjoyable.

    Cocktails are magical and the team is very nice ! Great bar.

  • 5/5 Brett S. 6 months ago on Google
    Joshua’s Tavern is the perfect spot for craft cocktail lovers — especially for those who enjoy gin in all its forms. Their gin selection is top notch including our favorites from Mirabeau and Tarquins. We agreed the Clover Club, Bramble, Aviation and Mezcal Negroni cocktails were top of the list — best enjoyed with the salty and delicious prosciutto, pecorino and truffle popcorn. Totally addictive! The service from Matheus (Matt) was also top notch. He’s like an old friend from the second you meet him!

    We love Gav Quiz. Claire is an amazing host and the bar staff work incredibly hard. Warm welcoming bar in the heart of Leicester Square

    Fantastic service and an atmosphere that is normally hard to come by in central London, relaxed and low key, fab gin serves and cocktails at a reasonable price point for the area
