Be At One - Islington

Ah, Be At One in Islington, what a gem for anyone fancying a proper cocktail adventure in London. I've got to say, from the buzz in the reviews, it's clear this place knows how to deliver a memorable night. The cocktails are a real highlight – fresh, inventive, and served with heaps of energy, especially with those unbeatable happy hour offers that make it feel like a cheeky treat rather than a splurge. And the staff? They're the heart of it all, always chatting away, recommending options, and even pushing their rewards app for a bit of extra fun. It's got that perfect party starter vibe, with tunes pumping and options for masterclasses if you want to get hands-on. On the flip side, though, it's not your typical cosy pub; it's more about the cocktails than the beers, and with doors not opening until the afternoon, it might not suit an early-day outing. Plus, it can get a tad packed, so if you're after a quiet corner, you might need to time it right. Overall, it's a solid choice for a lively catch-up or celebration – I'd definitely recommend giving it a go for that balance of great drinks and warm service, but just keep those potential crowds in mind!
