    A fun hidden treasure in London Ontario for fans of Speakeasy type bars. Pricey drinks, but, and this is a huge but, they are perfectly made by a skilled bartender. We had Dan as I our bartender and he did a great job of matching the right drinks to each of us and his presentation made them even better. Well worth the effort that it takes go find the door to get in (hint: it is in the back alley and only marked by a feather...)

    When someone tells you that some place has "the best" anything we are naturally over critical. I was amazed that for once a place exceeded that standard. This cocktails here are unequalled in London and could set a fair argument for amongst the best in Canada. When you consider the quality: the price is incredible. The bartenders are at the peak of the service game as well. Personable without being intrusive. Knowledgeable and passionate about their craft.

    A tiny cozy hideaway with excellent elaborate cocktails and great atmosphere. I really recommend the Spirit di Sancti if you like a spicy salty drink and the Hastily made Suitcase if you want to be on a tropical island. Food was not great, and they were almost sold out of everything on the food menu anyway. Eat dinner first and go for cocktails and swanky vibes.

    This place is everything from the ambiance to the music, the staff, the cleanliness and especially the handcrafted cocktails! We were served by Ilona & Vovo they were extremely friendly and accommodating. I see people complaining about paying a few dollars more, don't listen to them, totally worth it and better quality here. Definitely coming back when back in London. Love from Canada

    We were just in London for the day on some business... Found this super cute gem of a bar on Google maps and immediately made the choice to give it a try. We were mind blown! The aesthetic of the place, the service, but oh man the drinks? Every cocktail had life! Honestly we wanted to try them all! Highly recommended! A MUST when visiting London!

    Absolute Gem in the middle of an area known for riff raff. Not a place that has street folk in it anytime I have been there. ABSOLUTELY THE BEST COCKTAILS!!! Most average in the 14 dollar area and ultimate creation and flavour. If you want to take someone for a memorable night this is a highlight. I would suggest it as a pre dinner or after dinner visit to end the night. Very classy, well decorated and guaranteed to impress. The staff will take the time to walk you through to selecting your dream drink!!! Took me a while to figure out that entry is in back door but that's me lol. Their site says open Tuesday to Sunday but current to this post they are closed on Tuesdays. ALSO One of the only places open until 2am on Sundays!

    Well-rounded, expertly crafted cocktails. Also appreciate the bartender's recommendations for other establishments to continue our evening.

    Went to see live jazz, which was awesome. Staff was good and all Covid19 protocols in place including contact tracing. Food and drinks were good as well, a little pricey, however worth it because they provided the entertainment. The chairs outside were uncomfortable so ended up leaving earlier than we wanted to.

    Beware of large groups at this restaurant. We had 9 people in our party and arrived at 6 pm when their doors opened because we were all going to the Aeolian for a 8 o'clock show. 5 of us ordered pizza, I specifically ordered mine "well done". Most of the meals at the table were eaten by the time my pizza arrived at the table last , not even close to being cooked. Crust wasn't close to being brown.

    Great cocktail bar, good vibes, friendly bartender. Comfortable space tucked behind Dundas. Great as a local bar, date night, or private party space. A friend of mine hosted an amazing engagement party at Mockingbird.

    Amazing menu, atmosphere and customer service! I would highly recommend coming here. The waiter who served my table made my drinks off menu because I wanted something sweet and he DELIVERED!!! Best cocktails I’ve ever had, no exaggeration. 100% plan to return and would recommend to a friend. Also, if you’re there before 11pm you must try the baked Brie, it’s so delicious.

    Definitely a spot to go if you are in London. Fantastic patio and interior bar. Would be great for a night out, a birthday dinner, or rented out for an event. The cocktails are out of this world. Well balanced and deliciously refreshing. Food portions are perfect for sharing. With vibrant takes on classic pub food. The staff was friendly and prompt with an incredible attention to detail.

    Enjoyed our drinks, and the back patio. The server was great at making a custom cocktail for my husband who couldn't choose. We really enjoyed the vibe and just hanging out. The drinks are pricy but I found they were worth it for the atmosphere and taste. Just go in knowing that and you are going to have a good time. We didn't try the food as this was an after dinner stop for us.

    On top of being the best speakeasy in town they’ve started to host yuk yuks comedy nights - saw the first one last night and it was awesome

    Awesome spot. Thanks Leo! Very very good drink options, and they are great about custom drinks. Food was excellent and service was super too. Easy to miss, but this place is a must visit.

    Atmosphere and lighting were nice. Drink options were varied and all sounded great. The execution tasted watered down and almost muddy in the sense that the flavours didn’t really come out as I expected. I definitely don’t have a heavy hand when I make my own drinks and am very by the book, so I was surprised when I was trying hard to taste the alcohol in the drinks. My partner had a spirit forward drink and even that one had the same watered down taste. Our server was kind enough to allow him to order another which was appreciated. Do not know if I would come back here for a date myself.

    We stopped in to celebrate a friend's birthday. The atmosphere was great and the guys inside were very welcoming. I am someone who enjoys good music with friends, and drinks with great conversation. The Mockingbird is definitely a place you can do this. We enjoyed the charcuterie board for a snack and I personally loved the curd your enthusiasm, and Paloma drinks. We will be visiting again Thanks for the great night.

    Cozy little hole in wall, with creative cocktails and hip ambiance. Was a bit disappointed they didn’t have any sour beers available, but very happy to see they’re supporting local breweries. I will definitely be back.

    Didn't try the food but the specialty cocktails are off the chart. Great atmosphere almost like you are transported back in time. This was my first time but not my last.
