A great bar with a disappointing booking policy. We had made a reservation for 214 on New Year's Eve, intending to visit after having dinner at Flour Grape (located above the bar). Unfortunately, Flour Grape does not accept reservations, and despite arriving early, we faced a wait of over 3 hours. As a result, we were unable to make our 10pm booking at 214 and had to make other arrangements. We attempted to contact 214 to explain the situation and request a rescheduled booking, but struggled to find a contact number. We were subsequently charged £50 for missing our reservation, despite having sent an email explaining the circumstances. Disappointing and short-sighted customer service.
I came here with my boyfriend for a few drinks before we went for dinner after seeing good reviews for a casual drink which is what we were after. I couldn’t have been more pleased! We were able to find stools by the bar in amidst a buzzing atmosphere. Dimly lit and cozy! The cocktails were very nice and really reasonably priced for London and we enjoyed the experience. Definitely recommend!
We went downstairs to this bar after eating at Flour Grape, and also saw others who were waiting for their table grabbing a drink during the wait. The bar is small, but most people don't stay for too long. The fruity spritz is delicious and I would recommend it. The menu had some fun options and is great for gin lovers as they have a lot of gin options available.
Really good selection of cocktails, including lots of originals. A cosy, cool atmosphere. Friendly staff. Doesn’t take bookings (or at least not for three people on a Friday) which could be a downside, but we managed to get a table after only a few minutes of standing and got served very quickly. Would recommend for gin lovers!

I thoroughly enjoyed trying the different gin flights at this restaurant. I sampled the London and Great Britain flights, as well as an Asian flight and an upcoming USA flight. The tonic water was also excellent, made locally with real quinine.
Enjoyed the visit to this bar cocktails were great and a good selection of gin. Atmosphere was relaxed and friendly. Music wasn’t too loud, so could actually have a conversation without having to strain to hear! Staff very friendly.
Had a few cocktails here one afternoon. The cocktails were excellent and as it was a Sunday they weren't ridiculously expensive. One of the bar staff seemed a bit standoffish but the other was friendly.
The most important thing is the Staff is really friendly and Good doing the job Very nice Gin selection up of 100 different types of Gin Food is really nice just small plates for shearing

Very nice place with very good cocktails. Like the the space and feeling. Would return definitely. Very good to spend some time with friends. Staff is amazing
One of the best espresso martinis in london. A fabulous little spot that is never too crowded. It opens till late on a friday and is definitely worth a visit.
