Beautiful place. Good drinks, good service. Try the banana espresso martini!

Beautiful decoration and environment and very friendly staff. I’d love it if there were some breakfast options but the coffee was great.

Lovely spot. Pure luxury, first class service, the dapper barman even had a power bank for my phone as I had phone meeting. Classy, flawless & impeccable service

Stopped for a quick drink at Christina's bar located in the Mondrian Hotel in Shoreditch. Good bar staff and well made cocktails.

It was absolute vibes. I loved the dark ambience of the evening and the alcohol was crisp cold which I love.

must admit that the cocktails and food were not great (they also a super small menu that only consisted of 4-5 meals) but i really loved the aesthetic and the service was really nice. it’s a cute place to go to catchup with friends as it’s spacious and has many cute and cosy corners, but i wouldn’t recommend it for lunch or drinks really.

Great vibe - loved the decor and music, and pleasantly busy without being heaving. Service was a little slow however and unfortunately when using the toilet I saw a member of staff come out of a cubicle and not wash their hands - when I got back upstairs, same employee handing out drinks and snacks. Might have been they only went in to blow their nose or whatever but just a bit gross - I'm sure it happens a lot all over the place etc but not everywhere charges £7.50 for a bottle of beer. We'd have stayed for more drinks otherwise!

Such a vibey cafe! There was people who came in for breakfast and just coffee but many were getting their work done too. I also went there to get my study done, and it was worth it. The staff lady was so sweet. The place has rhe atmosphere that will make you get your tasks done straight away. The coffee is a bit expensive but it's probably because of the hotels it's connected too plus inflation is annoying us all

A classy cocktail bar with decent drinks but a slightly mismatched vibe. The cocktails here were somewhat hit and miss but definitely had some interesting ideas so credit where credit is due, if you're looking for something new or unique I would reccomend it. The waitresses were polite and attentive so service was overall great. My main gripe is that the place really does not have a cocktail bar vibe, its very bright inside and with 80s disco music, it made the place have an atmosphere more what I would expect from a cafe or restaurant rather than a cocktail bar. While it was nicely presented inside and the decor was visually appealing I'm just not sure it's particularly inviting or matching what most people are looking for from a cocktail bar.

cool interiors but horrible cocktails. the first cocktail I ordered was so bad I couldn’t even get through it had to order a mocktail, but the mocktail ended up being bad too. I ordered one of the options on the menu but ended up getting a non alcoholic “margarita” that was actually a really horrendous Bloody Mary, it tasted like they dumped a bunch of hot sauce in a fizz and called it a day

Lovely place in Shoreditch, beautifully crafted cocktail list! Love that they also have various non-alcoholic cocktails that are so much more interesting and sophisticated than the usual boring virgin mocktails you'll find in other bars.

Lovely bar but awful loud banging music on a Sunday afternoon. When I asked if it could be turned down just slightly, the manager just said no and walked off. Kinda spoiled what was meant to be a chilled, quiet drink.

Absolutely atrocious cocktails. Old fashioned had no resemblance to an old fashioned. The margarita was a salty fishy wash out. The overall vibe was hotel bar with people waiting for their next move. Not one to visit.

My recent visit to Christina's, a cocktail bar located in London, left me absolutely spellbound. As soon as we stepped inside, we were greeted by the most affable bartender, Kevin, hailing from Venezuela, who regaled us with his scrumptious and unique cocktails. Every sip was a burst of flavor, masterfully crafted by Kevin himself. The interior of the bar exuded an air of sophistication, yet managed to feel cozy and welcoming at the same time. The ambiance was just right, striking the perfect balance between being lively and relaxed. If you're ever in London, make sure to add Christina's to your list of must-visit places. The delightful drinks and warm hospitality are sure to leave you with memories that will last a lifetime.

My friend and I went in January and loved it so much we’ve been back a few times since. There’s a great menu with some really fun twists on classics and some great house cocktails too. Stand outs have to be the old fashioned, the dirty gin martini (ask for it to be super slutty) and the rosehip cosmo. The bar team are great and really friendly. They were super knowledgable about all the locally sourced spirits, ingredients and in house specially prepared elements that go into the drinks. A real treat if you’re out and about in shoreditch and fancy a drink away from the hustle and bustle of the more commercial bars.

“Hey, Christina’s. We’d love a cocktail nightcap at 10.30pm on a Tuesday in a hotel bar in the nightlife hub of a global city. Oh?! You’re closed. What are you, Pret? Very average.”

Food and drinks were fine (I did enjoy the banana espresso martini) and even though staff were pleasant there was an issue where they said there was a mistake and they needed to reprint their menu, and almost everything we wanted was unavailable! Hope this is sorted very soon as otherwise a nice venue.

Fine! Really really expensive though. I went for drinks and some small snacks and ended up spending about 70£ per person… the drinks were fine and the place was not busy at all, I went on a Sunday. Has a very business vibe inside. The staff was all friendly and nice.

Nice drinks, good atmosphere, and amazingggg service. Bianca and Herve were our waiters and they were unbelievably attentive and helpful. Herve basically gave us a complete rundown on the entire cocktail menu to help us find the exact cocktail we wanted, which we loved. Will definitely be back!

The interior was super cute, the aubergine sando was amazing however the chicken sando was small and tasted sour. I came specifically for the fruity sando because it was advertised in the picture on instagram... a promoted post... but they said they don't do the fruity one... so thats disappointing. The instagram showed they had a variety of pastries.. and turns out they only had basic croissants.. again disappointing. I recommend for this place to drink and chill rather than the sando.

We had a beautiful and amazing experience to this cocktail bar thanks to the friendly staff. While we ordered our drinks we’ve been asked how we found them and personally my cocktail was good but rather dry than sweet to my taste. The waiter suggested friendly to make me a new one to my taste and even if I felt a bit bad about it, he insisted he was totally fine. What a stunning gesture! We had some nibbles with our drinks that were delicious.

Went there for lunch with friends, lovely and relaxing environment with open space and nice big windows. We have ordered 4 different types of Sandos, not bad but also not impressed, the Sweet Sandi was pre-made, therefore the bread was really wet and broken. Matcha Latte was a joke, more like green color cinnamon latte, I asked why they put cinnamon, the answer was there were cinnamon in the package. Aubergine Croissant was very soggy, why I even tried. Cocktail for LCW was not bad, but still not rememberable.

Popped in for a few cocktails and we were very happy with our drinks! Well-balanced with interesting combinations. Service is also warm and friendly. It also operates as a cafe in the day with coffees and sandos, I'll definitely bear that in mind for the next round.

Excellent pastries, good coffee, mediocre service. I’ve gone here twice now. Both times the pastries have been excellent. The ham and yuzu (pictured below) was unique and delicious. They are pricey but it’s a treat and worth it in my opinion. The coffee is solid. The service was lackluster. Both times I wasn’t greeted when I arrived despite being one of maybe three customers total. The barista acted like she didn’t want to be there. The pastries still make me want to go but they really need to improve their customer service.

Great atmosphere, staff & food - however, it's one of those typical places that asks if you want still or sparkling water and then you end up paying nearly £5 for something you didn't even know you were paying for! Would come again but definitely not happy with that charge!

Christina's is light, bright and beautiful. Wonderful atmosphere, the music, lighting and temperature is all perfect. My favourite time is first thing in the morning, it's very relaxed and an excellent place to perch up have an amazing croissant 🥐 coffee and start your days emails. By midday the lunch menu gets going and you have quite simply some of the most delicious sandwiches in town! When it seems like an acceptable time for a boozy drink (midday?) The cocktail menu focuses on local British produce and spirits. It's a must try!

2 stars for staff and good ambiance. Beef has minimal filling and overly salty. Similarly sweet Sandi has more cream than fruits, bread is too dry. Overall, very overpriced. Would only recommend to go there for cocktail and it’s a nice ambiance for a catch-up with mates. Would not recommend any of the Sando.

Saw this bar on Infatuation (IG food blog) and visited for a quick dinner. Awesome staff, very outgoing and friendly. Menu is limited: bakery closes at 15.00 so only sandos and some snacks available. Mortadella sando is so tasty, great culinary idea. No dress code seems to apply but business casual may be more appropriate

Great new addition to Shoreditch, in what used to be the Curtain hotel. They’d weirdly run out of batch brew coffee (by 1pm on a Saturday!?) with no offer to make any more. And the tables are very close together. But the hot chicken sando was delicious enough to make you forget the rest. Love the decor too!

Christina’s has a really nice vibe. Friendly and welcoming, good music, excellent service and some truly interesting ‘sandwiches’. We had the Wagyu and the chicken and they were so full of flavour, simply delicious. Must return to try the cocktails

Just tip top wonderful, from floor to ceiling. The wines were quirky, fun and delicious, and the cocktails were lovely. Coupled with the friendly service, it was just a treat. Sandos, what a concept. Faultless.

We were excited to eat here, but after we sat down, we weren’t spoken to for 15 minutes. We left after the staff cleared a table beside us and didn’t acknowledge us. The menu looked beautiful but we were invisible.

The yellow warbler is an absolute 10/10. The coffee is delicious and the sausage rolls are incredible. I always look forward to stopping in on my way to Abney park with my dog. The people that work there are also just so lovely. It’s a delightful spot and I can honestly say I’ve never had a bad meal here. Highly recommend.
