18th Birthday Party · 75 guests · June 2026
Had 18th birthday celebration. Venue is at a great location. Sussana was available and happy toanswer all our queries. Great bartending team. No toilet in the venue was a concern initially but they are literally steps away from the venue. We hired DJ Kam separately and came highly recommended by Sussana and he was excellent!

Birthday Party · 50 guests · June 2026
Susanna was amazing throughout and the guys behind the bar are a really wonderful bunch. The venue itself is perfect for a birthday gathering of any size and the indoor / outdoor setting was great for a warm June evening.
Communication of the minimum spend could have been a bit more discreet as I was told in front of about 4 people that I was not going to get my deposit back which dampened my mood a bit (all is well as we did hit it).

30th Birthday Party · 50 guests · April 2026
Such a good venue, lovely staff, easy to communicate with and super accommodating!
Wish there was a toilet onsite but as there is a public one opposite the venue, not the end of the world at all! Still an amazing night.

Ester is a minimal cocktail bar in a grade II Listed building in the heart of Camden Stables Market.

Out on the terrace you’re greeted by a slick spirits expert delivering craft booze and cocktail samples to passers by whilst guests are kicking back enjoying Spritz’s, slushies, and ice cold stiff drinks with a steady baseline emanating from within.

Laid back, high energy service, the best drinks in town, that not only look good and taste great, but make you feel awesome. Drinks that consider the drinker, the planet, and the community with an equal focus on alcoholic and non alcoholic.

Inside the two custom 18pax tasting tables are always full with cocktail masterclasses, craft spirit tastings and supper club pop ups.
