Experimental Cocktail Club (Chinatown)

• The entrance is not so obvious to the unknowing eye
• The bar is divided into two tiny floors with barely any place to sit or stand
• The interiors are rather dark and lined with red carpeting &
• You can make reservations but it is difficult to accommodate large parties here
• Be warned that they serve no food and cocktails are 11 quids on average
• The cocktails are superbly fabulous in taste and refreshingly creative in nomenclature (I'm A Peach
• The 'La Medicacion' is my favourite the base poison is plantation Trinidad rum with a few tea infused liquors shaken and served in an old tincture bottle
• More than anything else is completely worth the wait
• I find it hilarious that the health rating is 1 as the cocktail bar is perfectly sanitized with spirits
• Experimental Cocktail Club (Chinatown) offers some of the best cocktails in London
• Often they have live jazz which is great but does take up half the space one of the floors
• This is a small place and it they let in a limited amount of people which is equally good and bad
• Mixologists) are very friendly and are extremely skilled and concocting different drinks to suit your taste and mood
• The crowd has changed a little (now a lot more city bankers then there used to be) and it is not half as fun as it's Parisian counterpart
• Experimental Cocktail Club (Chinatown) was once great
• The barman is able to pull anything out of his cap
• The entry door is really underplayed so keep a look out for the tall bouncer often standing next to a shady looking door
• Walking in ECC for the first time is a fantastic experience
• The cocktails are to be honest sublime and completely original
• I couldn't point at one is particular as these are always being updated
• ECC's cocktails are in with the best in London
• Do not miss out if you are going out in Central London
• Is a great London gettaway and does well at creating that 'hipster' / exclusive West London vibe which is definitely a trend that is picking up
• The cocktails are great (what a surprise right)
• The specially prepared one of a kind cocktails which are more of an experience than a plain drink everything is so appealing
• Staff and crowd attitude is very arrogant and 'exclusive'
• Experimental Cocktail Club (Chinatown) is the best opportunity to ruin your evening
• Obviously if you are going to leave 300 500 pounds at the place (prices there are quite high) the last thing you want to face is arrogant staff
• You don't get in even if it is completely empty upstairs
• When me and my friend asked we were allowed in only to find the bar half empty
• Some of them are friendly and really try to make your evening wonderful
• Some are just so stuck up that you feel like you need to be thankful for the fact that they are taking or preparing your order
• Thats maybe what it was a few years ago
• Other than the fact that there is no sign outside indicating that it is a cocktail bar (which quite a few places in London have now started doing)
• Some reviewers have suggested that ECC is a good place for a date but why don't you go to the American Bar at the Savoy Hotel on the Strand
• Its definitely the best cocktail on the menue (and the only one I ever liked)
• I could give you a list of amazing bars in New York where the bartenders serve cocktails like they are works of art but in London
• I tried to take pictures but it was too dark and I was too inebriated to care
• Luckily they made an excellent Pisco Sour though the Gin Fizz was not up to the mark
• I remember one night when he was behind the bar at Amor &
• Walk along Gerrad street past the Chinese restaurants till you find a random door with a bouncer glaring at you and walk on up and try the Pisco Sour
• ECC Chinatown is a stunning candelit cocktail bar spread over two floors
• The atmosphere was phenomenal tables were packed and the bar was buzzing
• Bartenders were working double time trying to keep up with all the orders
• Our drinks were worth the wait
• We were really impressed with our first visit to ECC
• This is a tiny little space that can only take a few people and is clearly very popular
• The cocktails are really good with expert bartenders whom are all really friendly and chatty if you are sat at the bar
• Hidden away in China town I would have never found this speakeasy style bar with out my friend having been before
• Luckily we were meeting friends who were already inside so the doorman let us up straight away
• So chic and had such a fun lively atmosphere packed with people all having a good time
• The cocktails were incredible
• I had the Get Buck in Here which was very well crafted and the zest the perfect finish to an otherwise very strong drink
• 11 15 pounds for a cocktail however it is well worth it
• Great to catch up with friends because the music isn't too loud
• Because it is so hard to find as well
• Experimental Cocktail Club (Chinatown) was not overcrowded and that is the first thing that I look while I enter any place

• I absolutely fell in love with Experimental Cocktail Club (Chinatown) mostly because they change their cocktails every few months
• The one negative I would like to state about Experimental Cocktail Club (Chinatown) is the fact that you have to pre book a table on the weekends or you might have to wait for a long time

• One thing to note before visiting this restaurant is to make a reservation

• A lot of crowds walk in and therefore it is always difficult to get a seat here
• The ambiance of the place is very dynamic but warm and cozy too
• The menu on offer too is quite amazing with a great variety drinks on offer

• I had a couple and tried everyone else's and all were pretty special
• The pictures are a bit grainy but that's because no flash photography is allowed
• The windows are blacked out with dark curtains and the only indication that you have found the right place is a small metal plaque on the wall
• My favorite of the 6 we tried was most definitely the Old Cuban
• Lemon juice and champagne and is comfortably one of the best cocktails I ever had
• Lemon and elderflower cordial although none of the others were as great as the Old Cuban in my opinion
• Being a cocktail fan it was a right choice going to Experimental Cocktail Club (Chinatown)
• Hidden away in China Town is this little speakeasy gem of a bar
• From the cosy yet alluring decor with its oriental touches and ambience to the unusual menu of cocktails
• The price range is around the 12 15 pound mark but if you want to treat yourself you should definitely give it a go
• Very strange and unusual what I was expecting I guess

• Having visited the place after dinner at the Dishroom Experimental Cocktail Club (Chinatown) seemed ordinary with very damp lighting and a miserable menu in my opinion

• I would definitely recommend to make reservations as Experimental Cocktail Club (Chinatown) is super busy
