Bradley's Spanish Bar in City of London, Westminster

Refreshing change from the non-descript pubs of the area

Best Guinness in the whole of London.

Fabulous pub, great beer and excellent service. Just lovely

Always packed ,always fun,always music ,always can't wait to go again

My own personal experience of this was a very rude owner. When I asked to see the wine (based on the 'Spanish' in their name) he said they have no wine and that "we are a bar" - kept repeating it to my face so I just walked out. Hundreds of other choices in London so avoid this place.

A must visit Quirky and a great juke box Great service

Terrible place!! The owner is a very unfriendly person. The atmosphere is very discouraged. Don't pay for bad service!

Fabulous place. Small packed snd off the main drag. Good choice of drinks

This one was new to me. A shabby old down to earth pub we were after and this delivered. Not many of these left in London let alone bang in the middle of Central London. Expect it to be tight inside. Spill out to the street during the summer. But you go for the inside.

Well established side street drinkery with a downstairs bar too. Definitely worth a visit.

This is our go to place when in Central London, Always Someone interesting in there! And the Juke box always has a different selection every time.

Still the best independent bar in the West End.

Fantastic old bar just off of Oxford street. Proper jukebox on ground floor. Excellent selection of Spanish lagers.

My favorite bar in London. Rich downstairs is hilarious. Couldn't recommend more.

Tucked away just out of the bustle of Oxford Street, this small bar is full of character

A REAL London pub. Thanks for being there

Always great and serves late. Perfect.

Lovely staff who were very helpful when i didn't know specifically what I wanted for a party. Very helpful and easy to talk to

Small but perfectly formed pub, tucked off the main drag.

There is something a little romantic about this tiny bar tucked away on a narrow street . Feels like you've stepped back in time and it provides necessary respite from the bustle of Oxford street. Budvar and Budvar dark are my choice beers here. Sit back, relax and put a song on the jukebox

Love the basement bar. Quality old school pub to escape the hordes at Tottenham Court Road and Oxford street.

Staff being rude to other customers. Dirty and smelly🤢

Intimate alley pub with fantastic vibes inside and out. We came here on a Saturday night and the street outside was brimming with people enjoying drinks and conversation. The interior is cozy and inviting as well. Will definitely be returning!

Best pub in London! Richard is the main man and always gives you a big smile! The first and most important step of every London-visit is Bradleys!

Every time I come to London, I insist on visiting this place. The atmosphere is really friendly. Its on a small side street, so you may need a map, or just ask someone. It's worth the visit. My favourite bar in the capital.

Nice bar for a couple of beers. It’s in a small street right off the main road so outdoor standing is a vibe

A really nice small and atmospheric pub, it's a shame that the jukebox wasn't in order.

Love this spot! Cozy and great service. This is a bar I will return to again and again for the atmosphere alone. Enjoy!

Small intimate venue with a great jukebox.

I visited here on a hot Thursday afternoon at 3.30pm and it was already quite busy. I bought a nice pint of London Pride at £6.80. There were no cask ales and a limited selection of spirits. This is not surprising as the pub is limited for space. There is a small bar at ground level and a similar sized bar downstairs. They have an old style jukebox although it was unplugged when I visited. Given the limited space inside a lot of people were drinking outside even though there is no seating. The location is great, just 50 yards from New Oxford St. The toilets are downstairs which may be a problem for the less mobile. An unusual pub but worth a visit.

Very small bars on 2 floors but an absolutely brilliant atmosphere would definitely go again did not eat here so cannot comment

Packed for the Spanish game at start of the Euros. We stood outside in the rain as it was hot, stuffy and crowded inside. Another (non match ) time, perhaps

A delightful spot. Tucked away very near Tottenham Court Road station, a spot you'd think would be absolutely rammed but is niche and quaint and open for your custom

Popped in for a few pre dinner pints Unique place - old fashioned vibe and a warm welcome Well worth swinging by if unique pubs are your thing

Bar manager called Richard is a miserable lump of a bloke, insisting no volume for an England game, supporting the opposition very loudly, until England drew. Then he turned off the TV? “Good for sports” I don’t think so! Maybe time for him to go and drink back in Ireland?

A wonderful bar with various choices of beers and ales. Friendly atmosphere and great service. Definitely recommend this place.

Showed the England game. Taunting non Irish clientele. When England equalise they turn the tv off. Why live in London if you hate the English so much?

The best Guinness outside of Ireland! Great little bar, free Jukebox, great atmosphere and good staff. What's there not to love? Apart from me living 100 odd miles away in Birmingham,...

The bar tender downstairs was the rudest individual I have ever had the displeasure of meeting. He mocked us for wanting to watch the Spanish game, couldn’t pour a pint, yelled at anyone on the stairs, glared at us the whole time and was mean throughout the 10 minutes we could stand being there.

Great find just off Oxford Street. No frills bar, with an outstanding old school jukebox that plays 7inch singles, something to confuse the youngsters

Small pub, great juke box and atmosphere

Perfect service, cool bartenders, nice beers. The staff are very thoroughly checking the ID's if young ones - this means they are accurate and do care

Great tiny bar right in central London.

Quirky small bar just off Oxford Street, friendly staff, cold beer, decent music.

I just love it there. Has an unique atmosphere

Miserable barman took forever to serve us because he was busy with a bucket of kfc behind the bar. Eventually got a pint of Guinness which was pure white for 2 minutes. It settled ok but tasted grim. Decided to go to the toucan instead.

Came in to ask if its open as the downstairs area looked like a squat. Staff was very rude and unfriendly.

The best Alhambra in the U.K. and probably the best jukebox in London. Downstairs for football is also lively.

Stalwart of bohemian lifestyle of the west end. Still the jukebox plays on. Same old two bars, one up, one down. Same old cramped loos. A step into the past. Fond memories.

So glad I found this little bar just off Oxford Street. Felt like being in a typical dark Spanish Tapas Bar on a sunny day. Lots of Spanish beers on the taps as well as a few craft beers and Guiness of course. An old authentic juke boz with 60s/70s/80s vinyls plays 3 songs for £1. Definitely a place I will be returning.

Nice, divey atmosphere, but a bit pricey considering

Still the best pub in the West End

Best Pub in Soho! When you’re there they treat you right!

Love Bradleys. Hasn't changed, doesn't need to

The bar is Spanish because of the signs. The music is from a record player and it's all English :)

We were looking forward to visiting this bar as it looks small and quirky, and it also has a retro juke box, what a disappointment. We walked in to the half empty ground floor bar and we were told to go to the cellar bar as the ground floor was "too full". We went downstairs to find that it was almost full, I found about 18 inches of bar which wasn't occupied by drinkers and the abrupt barman told me that he wasn't serving at that part of the bar, when I said that there was no other space at the bar he said that we "would have to go back upstairs then". When we returned to the ground floor the same barman who sent us downstairs decided that he was now prepared to serve us. The bar itself is grimey, the decor is dusty, the toilets are filthy and smell like the polar bear house at a zoo. There seems to be a regular clientele with whom the staff are very cliquey, we will not be returning anytime soon.

Stopped here to meet friends. Really nice old pub. We sat downstairs which is a quirky place, had a few pints of Guinness,which I would recommend. Small pub but full of charm. We will be back!!

Arrived just after opening time and already busy. Great barman and friendly clientele. Downstairs bar and would definitely recommend.

Very unkind staff. All long faces. The place smells like urine. At least you can drink outside, which is illegal but you don't have to put up with the smell.

Perfect pub for the banter squad 🔥👍🏻⚡⚡

OMG what a rude barman we are women in our 60's just called in for a drink before going to a show, would have stopped for another drink but the barman so rude couldn't be bothered really to serve playing cards on a ipad thing then another 7 women came in brought 7 bottles off small prosecco it was an effort to serve these women but they sat down and was awaiting for show to start they were in amazement at his attitude would go back again, maybe the owner should employ a person who like the public

Spent a couple of hours there before a concert, fairly busy but good atmosphere, very friendly staff and not a bad pint of Guinness

You want Estrella or... Estrella?

Look. They saved my soul that day

Only stopped in for a pint. Upstairs was shut but quaint little bar downstairs. Irish barman welcoming as were the few locals that almost filled the place.

I recently visited Bradley's Spanish Bar in London and was absolutely charmed by the experience. The ambiance of the bar is stunningly beautiful. What really stood out was the exceptional service provided by a young lady who was not only sweet but also incredibly attentive. The highlight of Bradley's is their amazing jukebox. It boasts an excellent selection of records, setting a delightful and unique atmosphere that is hard to find elsewhere. This feature alone makes the bar a must-visit spot for music lovers. Moreover, the cozy and pleasant environment of the bar made our evening truly memorable. It's a great place to unwind after a long day or to enjoy a relaxed night out with friends. Bradley's Spanish Bar is a five-star experience in every aspect, and I can't wait to return for another delightful evening. Highly recommended!

Cooler Pub sehr urig/gemütlich es gibt über all an den Wänden interessante datails zu sehen und die Jukebox rundet been Flair super ab und bringt gute Stimmung. Personal ist sehr nett gewesen.

Lively place, to put into context it is a very small venue and 22 of us arrived. As we were attempting to get down the stairs the barman attending downstairs shouted at group to not stand on stairs due to fire risk. Get its a fire risk but to shout it 3 times when we're just attempting to get down is rude As its such a small place headed outside to have a smoke, attempted to make small talk with the doorman and asked why such a small place would need a doorman. Response was "none of your business, up to the venue" If its dead quiet I'd recommend but if its semi busy would avoid like the plague unless claustrophobia is your thing

Finally made it to Bradley’s. My darling daughter and I went on Saturday. Got there 4.30pm. I’d read the reviews. It sounded the sort of place I’d like. I didn’t like it. I loved it. Characters all around. Budvar dark. Great jukebox. We sang. We danced (when space allowed) Bar staff excellent. Especially the guy with the nose ring. Thank you Bradley’s, and your customers for making it a great start to our Christmas festivities. We shall return 👍

Proper little gem of a pub nestled in a little street just off Oxford Street. The upstairs bar is better as the downstairs one stinks of the toilets (which is the reason for the 4 star rating) otherwise it'd get full marks. Seating upstairs is very limited but if you can get a seat then sit back and enjoy the free old jukebox and try some of the rare beers on offer. My favourite was the black Budweiser Budvar. Never seen it on sale anywhere but here. Staff are friendly and welcoming. After work it gets very busy and mist chose to stand outside.

Just a great bunch of guys and girls.

I always pop by Bradley's when I'm visiting London. Such a great little boozer just off Oxford Steet, away from the hustle and bustle. It's a nice spot to people watch. Hanyway Street seems to be a little rat-run for the cabs/other cars, and always makes an entertaining watch when seeing some of them scratch those alloy wheels... Service is always polite and the punters are a good bunch. A real London institution indeed.

Just had a couple of drinks and if that's all you're looking for it's not a terrible place but it definitely needs some maintenance and cleaning. If I was in the area and wanted a drink I wouldn't mind stopping in again

Nos tomamos una estrella galicia buenisima pero el ambiente no era muy animado…

My all time favourite pub in central London and I’m not just saying this out of my love of Spanish beer. This quaint little pub for me represents the pub culture of a bustling city, it’s full of locals and isn’t trying to raise eyebrows. The price of beer here or neat spirits is fair here and the service is always given with a smile. This place isn’t trying too hard to seem edgy it just has a naturally warm charm about it and is easily missed but if you’re in the area, it’s definitely worth visiting even if it means standing outside for the vibe this pub radiates.

Fantastic busy old pub in london. Friendly staff ❤️

Been frequenting this bar sporadically since the late 1970s. It remains largely unchanged which in itself is a marvel these days anywhere! Unfortunately that includes the ladies loo that's gross with an almost open soil pipe 😕

Sadly my experience here on a Saturday afternoon did not live up to the expectations from the other reviews. The staff member in the downstairs bar is possibly the grumpiest and rudest person I've encountered in a pub! He seemed to search for any opportunity to complain about something... where we were sitting, how we weren't buying enough drinks etc etc. His rationale was "the need to keep the lights on" but his tone was pretty unacceptable so we all left earlier than planned. If he'd asked us to get a few more drinks with a bit more positivity I think we would have as we'd have actually felt welcome. Unfortunately, it seemed like he'd got out the wrong side of his bed and didn't want to be there himself. Overall, I won't be coming back here and wouldn't recommend it to anyone else.

Great little pub! Love the decor. Hidden gem!

Decent pint and the jukebox with the great Playlist 👍🏻👍🏻

A snug and friendly escape from the chaos of Oxford St... Which is just yards away. A vintage jukebox provides the tunes. Has always delivered a warm welcome

De l'ambiance, un personnel sympathique, un décor intéressant. Tout dans ce pub concourt à passer un bon moment.

Great little place of Oxford Street, free jukebox at times, very friendly staff.

Un lugar absolutamente británico con un toque español y visitantes españoles. Sencillo, incluso humilde, pero con enorme encanto local. Cervezas españolas, ambiente bohemio, y hasta un JukeBox de verdad.

Cosy wee pub right in the thick of it - famous jukebox deserves respect

Really cool little bar just off of Oxford Street. The beer wasn't the best, but the bar more than made up for it.

Iconic venue off Oxford Street. Seating at a premium. Good range of lagers, less options for ales.

Great bar in the center of London

Good little pub. It is small, a bit more room downstairs. Always a good atmosphere.

A bit of a classic - encouraging to see it's still going, though didn't spot the jukebox any more. Budvar dark on tap is a win.

Great little whole in the wall.

I love this little island of happiness!!

Best old school pub in Central London!

The guy at the downstairs is super great. So engaging and fun. Might be a reason why people like to stay downstairs. I got a chance to meet people from different countries. I would recommend the place to anyone.

Aitoa englantilaista pubitunnelmaa espanjalaisella lisämausteella.Yläkerta pieni mutta tunnelmallinen Alakerrassa en käynyt, mutta oppaan mukaan siellä enemmän tilaa ja mahdollisesti musiikkia livenä

Watched the all Ireland final here, special memory, special bar, great clientele and great bar staff! Guinness is the best in Soho. Erin Go Bragh.

Classic pub experience just off Oxford St. Staff make you feel at home and you end up talking to lots of people from all over the world

Love friendly bar... Good selection of drinks.

Honestly shocked it took me this long to visit. Great energy loved the vinyl jukebox.

Great wee pub with upstairs, downstairs, and 'on street' drinking available
