Bar 45 in City of London, Westminster

I met friends here for a light dinner, the bar is gorgeous, the staff excellent and the food brilliant. It’s a hidden gem!

My husband and I were recommended to visit Bar45 to celebrate his birthday and what a great recommendation it was. The bar staff were friendly and attentive not just to us but to the other guests as well. Winston was very charming and and made us the the best cocktails we have ever had! The bar snacks were great too. We will definitely be returning! Thank you!

Nice place for a drink and a place to relax. It’s expensive but very enjoyable. Bar is very classy. Recommended

Llamado con un amigo para beber, excelente ambiente y servicio. El personal de recepción y el personal del bar muy amable y atento. Gran entorno Bien vale la pena una visita.

Nos encontramos con este pub por casualidad, qué gran noche, cada artista fue fantástico, y pequeña joya escondida, una vez cada quince días un miércoles, definitivamente regresaría aquí, sigan con el buen trabajo.

Prior to dinner, we were invited to Bar 45, by a “member,” and had a wonder pre-dinner wine experience. The Bar is elegant, and understated, with rather limited seating, in the bar area. We were seated at one of the bistro tables, beside the smallish bar. The décor is attractive, and a bit like a modern take on a “gentlemen’s club,” with a lot of more contemporary straight lines. It seems geared more to private functions, but does offer an abbreviated bar menu, “Rough CUTs” from the Wolfgang Puck CUT on-property. We were there only for the wines, so did not get to sample any of the food items. With two glasses of the Jean-Louis Chavy, Puligny-Montrachet 1er Cru “Les Champs Gains”’14, a glass of Drappier, “Signature”, Blanc de Blancs NV Champagne, and a Ginger Beer on ice, in front of us, we found that the noise level was quite low, and some pre-dinner business could be easily conducted. The surfaces of the room appeared to absorb the noise from the other patrons very well, though it probably helped that most were speaking in rather hushed tones. The room just seems to make that appropriate. Our service was friendly, and efficient. Though probably geared more to cocktails, I was impressed by the wine list. As I found on almost the entirety of this visit, many more wine lists in London are adding some excellent USA wines. This has been both a change, and a surprise from most of our visits. Bar 45 was a prime example of this, with many very good, to excellent USA producers, even in the B-T-G selections, and then on their “bargain” list, called “CUT’s 60 Under 60,” with bottles at, or below £60 – a very nice touch. Over the years, our UK board members ask why I never order USA wines, and until now, my comment was always along the lines of “the USA wines, that find their way to London, are not ones, which I would serve, or drink. Also, the prices are far too high. I will serve USA wines, when we have you to my country, for the board meeting.” Well, the times, they are a changing, and Bar 45 is a prime example of how much. We will return, and maybe even explore those USA wines, but only for my UK board members, as I get those at “home,” but cannot get such lovely Montrachets there. We also want to return for the bar menu too.

My wife and I had a late lunch Christmas day at Bar 45. The food was very creative and represented a cross section of dishes from Wolfgang Puck's different restaurants. We found that three starter size portions were more than sufficient for our appetite.

A very warm, professional welcome and fabulous service. The cocktails are second to none, and Bar 45 is a real haven from the London rush

Outstanding food washed down with quality wine all in the centre of London just off Hyde Park. The address may appear simple but the food certainly is not. Give it a whirl and you will not be disappointed.

Beautiful bar within the 45 Park Lane hotel. Excellent multi lingual staff that really tries to accommodate you. Cocktails are of the highest quality. Not too big, not too crowded, my favorite spot during my stay for a nice aperitif. Will be back!!

If you can't get into Cut, you can still eat like a champ! Wolfgang Puck was hosting a buyout dinner for Princess Michael and the resident artist at the hotel the evening we were there, so we weren't able to eat dinner at Cut as I had hoped. However, i must say, Bar 45 probably has the best bar food I've ever experienced. It's a cozy, comfortable and handsome bar with a fun, loungey vibe that you might expect to see in your really really rich friends flat.

Just a room where drinks are served. Lots of coffee table books to look at but not much else. Go accross the street to the Dorchester bar for a better experience.

Мы встречались с друзьями в Баре 45, так как были на бегу и местоположение отеля и бара легко найти в центре Лондона. Встречались быстро поболтать, поэтому заказали небольшие закуски и коктейли. Нужно отметить, что даже картошка фри БОЖЕСТВЕННА, также, как и мини-бюргеры. Обслуживание на высоте, улыбчивый персонал - уже жду, когда снова попаду в этот бар, на этот раз специально.
