It is a great and spacious space, the service received was great, both from behind the bar and the repeated assistance from Ben (?) and his colleague who helped with setting up, any technical issues etc. Everyone who attended had a great time, no complaints, the karaoke was a welcome touch and, even though it was supposed to be gone before my event, the pool table was a hit.

Verified Reviews of Party Bars in London
I had the most amazing time celebrating and hosting my 40th birthday at Dirty Martini! From start to finish, everything was absolutely fantastic. The atmosphere was incredible, the food was delicious, the choice of drinks was brilliant, and the music was exactly what we wanted — such a great vibe all night! A huge shout-out to all the staff too. They were friendly, attentive, professional and made my birthday celebration feel really special. I honestly couldn’t praise Dirty Martini enough for helping make my 40th birthday such a memorable night. Everything was perfect, and I’m so glad I chose to celebrate there.
I hosted my cousin 30th birthday here. Everything was amazing, the drinks, the food and the service. The bartender, Rohan was great, very hospitable to all the guests. It’s a family owned business and they were all lovely and brought good vibes!! If you are thinking of hiring out their bar i definitely recommend and I’ll be back for sure!!
This is an excellent trendy venue -definitely recommend this! Susana and all the staff are super friendly and very responsive. I had a great party and was able to put up my own decorations, bring my own DJ and equipment was all good, and a huge smart screen and mic. I visited the venue a couple of times and the team were super accommodating! Also you can order honest burgers through a QR code direct to the venue or order pizzas and platter via the venue. The pizzas went down very well and I had some really great feedback! And a great price!!
We had a great experience filming here - the staff were very friendly and accommodating, allowed us autonomy to utilise the space however we needed while also being on-hand to assist with any issues. Plenty of facilities, and nice having the cafe just upstairs. The venue is also right by a police station so not the most ideal with sound recording, but that's a unique issue to shoots requiring audio. Otherwise it was exactly what we needed, fairly easy to access, lots of great furniture and beautiful design, worked really well for our production!
This venue was great for me and 40 friends to celebrate my birthday. We could play our own music, bring our own DJ and decorate how we wanted. The staff were very helpful and friendly when we arrived to set up and event helped with decorating. Bar service was good throughout the night, no long waits. Very memorable and fun night would definitely hire again.
The fox @ Excel hosted our wedding reception on 8th July 2023. The manager we first spoke to (Jenny) was an absolute star, she couldn’t do enough for us and was so professional. Rest of the staff also did a great job. Venue also helped us find a band and put on really nice catering. The wedding cost was very reasonable considering it was in london and we could keep a free bar for our 180 guests all night.
They made sure that my guests and my night was special throughout. The choice of Prosecco and cocktails is great - as well as the selection of canapés (meat and vegetarian options) which went down well with all my friends and family. Kristina was a huge help whilst organising the event and made the lead up to the night seamless and enjoyable. A huge thank you to Kristina, your team and the dj on the night.
