Ideal for: Intimate groups seeking a relaxed, social evening of drinks and shared plates.

What sets it apart: A regular live jazz programme on Thursday evenings provides live music that shapes the room's atmosphere.

I had a wonderful experience working with Little Bat to host my brother's engagement party. Food was delicious as were the drinks and the service and responsiveness was 10/10! Would definitely recommend!

The Little Bat is the most amazing location for an event if you are looking for a fun and stylish event. We had our Christmas party there and it was a great location, size and atmosphere. I would highly recommend it everything about the venue.

Little Bat Bar is such a great venue. It's super stylish and the perfect size. The staff were so attentive and the food was delicious. We hosted a work networking party here and everyone loved it.

Office Party · 70 guests · December 2022

A lovely, sophisticated and intimate venue in a great location close to Highbury & Islington tube station. The staff on the night were lovely and offered very good service. They were also very communicative in the lead up to the event - very responsive and collaborative in working with us to make the arrangements we needed and were flexible based on our needs.

We were told we couldn't arrange catering from outside the venue (except for dessert), which we were fine with but the finger food portions the venue offered turned out to be very small considering it cost £35 per head and we asked upfront if it would be enough. We paid £2,000+ for the catering, which was supposed to cover food for 60 guests. 40 people turned up due to the poor weather but many of our guests said they only had a few canapes each. I asked the venue to provide the same amount of food that we paid for (to cover 60 guests) but I'm not sure that was the case because quite a few people said they were still hungry.
