About this space

BABYLON | LOWER GROUND is a lower-ground Dining Room in Gilgamesh London Covent Garden defined by intimate recessed banquette seating that creates semi-private dining pods.

Design: The dining room has a low ceiling, dim recessed lighting, patterned fabrics and dark timber tables that produce a compact, atmospheric interior accented by planted greenery.

Features: The room includes a built-in PA system and speakers and permits a bring-your-own DJ. The space also provides Wi‑Fi and air conditioning to support dining and music-led events.

Ideal for: Groups seeking intimate, seated dining or relaxed, music-led private drinks receptions in a compact, atmospheric setting.

What sets it apart: The room features continuous carved-relief wall panels that run around the perimeter, providing a dramatic, sculptural backdrop.

What guests say: The room has an elegant, theatrical atmosphere and attentive front-of-house service. The sound system can be loud near the speakers and DJs, so volume adjustments are sometimes needed.
