    Great place for a night out when on Brick Lane. Awesome cocktails in generous teapots, good music and a fun place for a bit of a dance. Pop out for a banging corned beef sandwich next door. Will definitely be back!

    Luke, Taelle, Ciaran, Alicia gave us fantastic customer service and made our night! Our friends were visiting from Australia and they gave them a proper London greeting. Highly recommend to everyone. Great drinks and great atmosphere! Thanks so much guys!

    We hired the basement bar for a private party and it was perfect. The staff were so lovely and attentive, nothing was too much. They allowed us to stay on till 3am. Thank you to the whole team from the bar tenders to the security. Couldn't fault a single thing. Would 100% recommend.

    I literally love it here, soph is the best bartender. Sometimes I sit in here and read a book currently ready saint joan very good book.

    We went there in happy hour. It’s basically happy hour all the time which made me a little suspicious. Anyway it turned out that only a limited amount of cocktails are included in the happy hour discount. Btw that’s 2 cocktails for £10. But they have to be the exact same cocktail. Also the glasses looked a little dirty. Altogether it was okay but nothing better.

    I have been here now over 5 times. The music and employees are all really kind and great vibes. They have a really good happy hour that I would say are really worth it.

    So I came in to this Simmons very intrigued. As a Simmons connoisseur, I feel like whenever I come into one, I’m greeted by a breath of good energy and good cocktails. This one definitely exceeded my expectations !!! Great job and it was meeting Charlotte, she made my evening 10times better. Would recommend to anyone that’s fun. Love it !!!

    Was having a rough day and then I decided to visit Simmons Brick Lane. I walked in and was immediately greeted by their manager Charlotte with a warm smile. From beginning to end Charlotte made sure I was looked after and made me the most delicious cocktail I’ve ever had. I would give 100 stars if possible. Best experience ever and turned a bad day into an amazing one

  • 5/5 Kenny L. 1 year ago on Google
    Walked in, no need to book (lucky us) DJ was on point they also accepted request Barrister/bartender/cocktail geniuses Were fantastic. Enjoyed the vibe, drinks Surprised how they learn so much even after 3months They also give free drinks if they mess up your order (lucky us again) 10/10 service They do have happy hour Drinks were acceptional for the price

    Exceptional doesn't begin to describe the level of great customer service that was shown to us last night. Staff went above and beyond to make our experience at Simmons Bar wonderful and I'll definitely be back for more. Drinks were pretty affordable considering London's usual inflated prices. Thank you to Joe, Stephie, Liam, Rhian, Molly and Luke!!!! YOU GUYS WERE FANTASTIC!!! KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK!!!

    Great bar in the middle of brick lane. Loved drinking cocktails out of teacups and singing along to the music. The staff were friendly and funny. Will definitely be coming back on my next trip to London.

    I've never been to this Simmons Bar before, but it's definitely now one of my favourites. We tried out their French Martinis - they were so delicious. The staff are absolutely wonderful. Cannot wait to visit again.

    I have been to many a Simmons in my time in London and this is *by far* the best Simmons in my opinion!! We were especially well looked after by Luke and Sasha who were behind the bar 😊🍷

  • 5/5 Antonio C. 1 year ago on Google

  • 5/5 FRIZZ P. 1 year ago on Google
    Don’t normally leave reviews but after visiting Simmons Bar I had too. The service is great and prices really good, especially happy hour. Great atmosphere and the biggest bonus is Luke the barman is hot!!

  • 4/5 Julie T. 2 years ago on Google
    Very small venue, but good vibes, cocktails are good 2 for £10 . Takes a while to get served so I suggest you order double the amount. Music was good too. Book a table if you want to sit down in comfort or you can take a chance.

  • 5/5 Kat g. 2 years ago on Google
    We were there on Friday and had a great time, all the staff were really friendly and of course we made the most most of the happy hour! Also as a suggestion - it would be great if there was a way to tip the staff on card.

    I had heard good things about this place, it exceeded my expectations. Vibes? Immaculate. Service? On point. Even tho it was his first day, Liam mixed some fine drinks. Rhiann was so helpful the entire evening as well. No complaints, cannot recommend enough.

  • 5/5 Linda A. 2 years ago on Google
    I’ve never written a review before but I just had to for this place. I came in yesterday early afternoon after a terrible experience at another bar. While I usually would not have picked this type of bar, the bartenders were friendly and helpful, and the drinks were well priced and the atmosphere was lovely. Definitely will not judge a book by its cover again!
