Jamies Wine Bar reviews

We ate in the top floor dining area then had cocktails at a private party on the mezzanine floor, overlooking the downstairs bar. The atmosphere was great throughout, busy in the bar and quiet with great service in the restaurant area. We …

A friend was DJing outside the Light Bar one weekend. We popped by to say hi and stopped for a few small plates of vegetarian options. It was a lovely vibe as we sat outside, listened to some music.

Like every place in London, very well located and an unbeatable setting!
quality snacks, very friendly people, the kitchen looks live,
we will be back for sure!
good prices… More

Best Sunday roast in town.
Great band and atmosphere.Excellent drinks, beer selection, non-alcoholic cocktails. …

Drinks are very pricey and service is very slow. They had many people working and I came at a time when they weren’t even busy. Ordered the Girlcore and it was waaaaay too sweet. My partner ordered the bloody mary which was actually quite good. I do like the environment here. More

Attended the Planet Ardbeg event here last Saturday. Really love the cocktail and the vibe of the venue!

Great atmosphere, food and cocktails. We were at the Loft, which is the dining area and more expensive but light food and drinks are available at the ground floor More

Not a huge fan. Food was very average – the menu is a strange collection from capeletti to beef buns. Thought food was generally bland and drinks overhyped. It was lively though and the venue is picturesque. …

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ One of the best places I’ve eaten in Shoreditch! Super fun menu, we had a few veggies on our table and they had lots of choice. The star of the show was the chicken! Packs a heat but in a mega way. We also had the pork skewers …

A very nice bar to relax in. High quality drinks but not for those on a budget. Staff well trained, friendly and polite. More

Beautiful and big place. We went there for Xmas lunch and it was decent, the burrata place was delicious and so the turkey. More

A must go to place for great food, excellent service, and amazing cocktails. (You’ve got to try the “Light Negroni”, there’s no way you won’t like it.) …

Not great.
The food is meh at best. …

Bartender artists meticulously prepare amazing and beautiful cocktails. Food was amazing! Cheeseburger spring rolls unexpectely sparked flavor memories of my childhood. Well done!

The staff weren’t happy we were there. Went in for a beer with a few friends. No plans to buy food and they wanted us out asap. Recommended anything else More

We popped in for coffee and oh my word, what a lovely coffee it was.
It was not overly expensive and the views are amazing. More

We came on a Friday night was busy but the service was amazing.
The food was so tasty and fresh.
Will be back for sure. More

The beer was flat. I said it to the server. He said it all comes from the same tap. 2 beers. £14.50. More

Buzzing atmosphere in a nice, spacious bar. The bar food isn’t special (couldn’t try the restaurant food which sounds more promising). Great service! More

I love this place, the layout is so different to other bars, it’s a really good venue. Been here many times for drinks, dinner and birthday events. The staff are always so friendly and accommodating and will ensure you are happy. There is a …

Excellent higher-end place for drinks and cocktails. Very spacious atmosphere with lots of nice brick/industrial detail and decor. Great place for after work drinks. More

Loved the ambience of the place. Friendly staff. Great bites to go along with your drinks More

Very very good.
Service was outstanding, we only had a cheese board and a bowl of chips ,but those chips with the curry mayo was amazing! Comfortable where the table had room and whole atmosphere was brilliant. More

I really enjoy coming here. The atmosphere and building is superb, the staff are attentive and friendly. The food is terrific. It’s a great spot! More

That is a wonderful place. The food is very good, the drinks are always cold as I like and there is a great variety of drinks and the service is also very good. I recommend it and will certainly be back many times. More

The Light Bar simply took my breath away! What an amazing experience! The best dinner I’ve had in a very long time, topped off with a delicious cocktail. I’ll definitely be returning soon! More

We tried some of the dishes on the new menu and were super impressed! Seasoning spot on, quirky and interesting options. Great experience, including the service!

Everything was very good, especially the robata sticks and the crab pasta. The cocktail list was inventive and full of Shoreditch nostalgia.

Stopped a spot.of brunch with a friend. Great service and food, an amazing place but unfortunately they left us to freeze to death when the upper floor was boiling hot. Definitely not coming here again in winter More

Absolutely fantastic food! Gorgeous place too! Shout out to Danielle for really making our evening the best! More

Rude customer service. Called to cancel table due to a friend having Covid and met with very rude host. Sadly will not be recommending or trying this place. Cancellation charge £30 for reference.

My wife and I went there for a drink on our way elsewhere a few nights ago. Attracted by what we considered a gorgeous and aesthetically pleasing surroundings. The detail on everything was well curated right down to the menus. We were both …

Attentive service, prices were typical of being in such a popular area, but the decor was fantastic. …

Good atmosphere and fun place for a Saturday night, but unfortunately the food was bland and unexciting. Should the menu change to include bolder flavours, would certainly recommend!

A very nice bar for drinks! Good service and a lovely ambiance! It was nice as there was a live singer! This was our second visit! I enjoyed it and would certainly recommend a visit. More

Went for dinner in the top floor dining area & had a lovely evening. Cocktails were great & atmosphere was perfect, great vibes for a Wednesday! Would recommend! More

Good food, nice pint and cocktails….perfect combination of relaxed bar atmosphere with dining options on different levels. Love the restoration of the building, full of character. More

One of the best places I’ve ever booked an event! Solid team, super helpful.

The food was really on point and had great support for the staff. Can’t recommend enough

Love this place, visited Sunday for a cocktail or 2 to celebrate a friends birthday. Super chilled, cool vibes made even better with a live accoustic musician. The Staff are experienced, friendly and professional. The coctails sublime! …

Very underwhelming.
Went because it was on the Michelin app.
Shakshuka had no egg …

Great place for social drinking occasions. Modern design, all sorts of drinking options, safe choice for drink. More

Came in without a reservation to see a football game over one hour before it started. I was told they were looking for a space for me and was asked to go order at the bar in order to wait. After a 40 minute circus involving several members …

Great cocktails, and good recommendations by Tony. Everything was super delicious. More

Members of our party were not allowed to enter after 12:30 am, even when we simply asked them to enter our table without ordering (respecting the fact that they do not accept orders after 12:30 am). …

We had our wedding here. Kasia, the event manager made the whole process really easy for us and went above and beyond to help us with last minute requests.
All our guests commented on how fantastic the food was, many said they will come …

Can’t thank the staff at The light bar enough. What a great experience from start to finish. The variety of food and drinks was amazing and I throughly enjoyed my evening

Come for drinks rather than food as a stop onto somewhere better if coming from the City / Liverpool Street into Shoreditch.
The venue is attractive (unlike much of the box park type crowd and …

Pretentious host as we walked in. Asked my sister to put away her water bottle cause they’ll serve us water. I mean, who asks that? The waitress passed our table about 5 times before we had to ask her to refill our water. Do not get the …

We were greeted by an absolutely packed bar downstairs but were escorted up to the top floor dining room by very attentive staff. …

12.5% Service Charge for Pouring 2 Pints and 6 x Rose Tequila!
£6.20
Taking the absolute Mick. …

Well run bar. Staff could be a little friendlier but Thursday night is very busy so difficult to judge fairly. More

Only had a couple of drinks in here. Service was good for how busy it was! And a cracking atmosphere More

It’s a really cool place – the food is good but maybe a little overpriced, but the cocktails are excellent, strong, and well worth the price tag. It’s very loud and crowded even during the week, so if you’re looking for a lively spot it’s …

Swung by yesterday to meet a client in the gorgeous surroundings of the Light Bar’s Engine Hall. …

We saw atleast three mice there last night. Couldn’t even finish our drinks, as had to leave in disgust. The staff to be fair were helpless but shockingly bad health and safety compliance. More

The food was nice. I enjoyed the vegan samosa the most. More

Very unprofessional behavior on 02.12.2022 around midnight when a member of our party was not allowed to enter to the bar after 12.30 am. Very rude the guy at the reception. Ruined our entire night. If I had to rate this place, I would put a zero.

The rib eye is so good that I could order another one if not filled up with the Sweet Potato Wellington. My wife used to order well-done steak and this is the first time she did not complaint us to have a medium rare rib eye. …

Had dinner in the timber loft , Saturday although not that busy was lovely great service from beginning to end, food was so well plated and tasted amazing . Overall great experience the chef came to the table at the end of meal , will be back , the trout belly and venison was incredible. More

Good mood. Quality drinks and price was quite rational. Staff was nice.

Music was below average and please please buy better speakers or consult someone. They sounded like they were full volume, full treble, struggling.

Didn’t have food here, but service was good and the atmosphere had a nice buzz about it. …

Came on a Friday evening for dinner with a friend. The venue is amazing, had a great buzz. Staff were really friendly and attentive. We ordered a few sharing plates which I think the menu is perfect for and we loved every plate! The crab pasta and beef bun were absolutely delicious. Would 100% recommend. We will be coming back

Amazing food , cocktails and atmosphere as always, the top dining area is massive and great for events / Christmas get together.
Can’t wait to go back! More

Cute date spot but sometimes they play music way too loud for anything to be enjoyable More

A really cool bar! Great spot to take your friends to. The bar is so nicely done decor wise, I’m so glad this old building is still around. …

Been here a couple of times and though it may give the impression of a loud place full of very happy drunk people, it’s quite well managed and organised. …

I had the pan fried gnocchi with squash and sage and it was one of the nicest things I’ve ever eaten! All the staff were very friendly and attentive. The atmosphere was great. Will definitely visit again! More

Fun place if you want vibe and lively atmosphere on the groundfloor.. which the turns in to a bar with DJ. Top floor of you want proper dining experience More

So nice to be back here since lockdown, nicely revamped and great choice of drinks. Lovely atmosphere too, thanks x

Thoroughly enjoyable evening. Staff very attentive and food rather tasty. The styling of the restaurant works very well. I must note the touch points – particularly nice locks in the restrooms; you won’t be disappointed More

Just went there for a drink after meeting. The place looks amazing. More

Bit of a revamp, quite a nice layout, outdoor (heated) seating. If indoors try and get the table upstairs. Good for after work drinks, bar area downstairs gets pretty packed though, worth reserving a space on busy nights.

Had my birthday meal it was amazing! The food was incredible, very friendly staff who took good care of us all. Will definitely be going back soon!! More

Super helpful staff. Good wine list ❤️ More

No redeeming features. Lost reservation, sat on a table that didn’t serve food (for dinner) and when we were finally moved and served the food we all wished we hadn’t bothered. Watermelon salad was just a pile of watermelon. Rest of the …

Visited this evening at 6pm for drinks and a bite to eat. Nice venue and cocktails, food ok. Did not appreciate being told 4 times in the space of 20 minutes that they needed the table back and that the next patrons had arrived (before the …

Really love it here, friendly staff and good food and vibes

Great bar! Loved the food, drinks and vibe. Def worth checking out. More

Would not go back here again, as the attitude of the door staff was one of indifference and we we made not too feel welcome. After asking for table, we were directed towards the upper two areas, where we were told we get a drink and bee …

Light Bar is most definitely a bar first, restaurant second. You’ll have to battle through drinkers on the ground floor, up two flights of stairs in order to get to the dining area. We were one of just four tables at the time we arrived, …
