Si sales con amigos, honestamente te aconsejo que no vayas aquí. La música era terrible, el DJ era terrible y rechazaba las solicitudes de canciones de todos y solo tocaba lo que le gustaba. A la mayoría de la gente no le gustaba la música. El ambiente es desordenado, sucio, barato, grosero y no seguro. La mayoría de la gente allí es gente que no pudo entrar en buenos bares y clubes, ya que es demasiado tarde. No aconsejaría a nadie que vaya a este club. Incluso el personal no es acogedor. Lo único positivo que tengo que decir sobre este club es que al menos tiene buen alcohol. Además de eso, completa la basura. Nunca más.

Evita este lugar. Si disfruta beber cerveza demasiado caliente, caliente y bebidas mal preparadas, no hay servicio ni personal que insulte a los clientes, este es un lugar para usted. Pasé algunas horas con un grupo de personas en este bar, no estaba particularmente lleno y nuestros pedidos fueron bastante generosos. No había ningún servicio, los miembros del personal no estaban interesados ​​en los clientes ni en servirnos en la mesa. Las bebidas llegaron en jarras de plástico y la cerveza estaba caliente. Como estábamos allí con algunos clientes para tomar unas copas después de la cena y solicitamos el recibo, la persona que estaba sirviendo no sabía cómo imprimir una y comenzó a insultarme cuando insistí en que la necesitaría. No puedo recomendar este bar a nadie.

Vine aquí un jueves. Si bien el lugar estaba bastante ocupado, esperar 30 minutos en el bar es inaceptable. El personal del bar no busca servir a los que han estado esperando más tiempo, sino a los que "sienten" que les gusta servir.Además, el tiempo que le lleva al personal del bar hacer un cóctel es ridículo. Si va a ofrecer cócteles, necesita invertir en más personal.Este lugar podría ser real, como lo sugiere su nombre, "joya" pero lento y una cantidad inadecuada de personal del bar es un problema grave.

He estado en este bar durante más de 4 años. Olvidé lo bueno que es. La mejor parte es que estás en el corazón de Londres. El aparcamiento puede ser complicado pero el ideal del transporte público. Cerrado a la estación de metro de Oxford Street y muchos autobuses públicos. El martes tienen clases de baile (en el sótano) y baile hasta la 01:00. ¡Disfrútala!

Stumbled across this place by accident when looking for a place to chill with friends on a Friday night. Went during happy hour which was 5pm to 8pm so drinks were pretty cheap, really cool atmosphere, music was really good although super loud for the fact that it was only 7pm so hard to have a proper conversation, but good vibes nonetheless!

I was really looking forward to this, but couldn't help coming away, feeling we had been ripped off.... Having booked a table for the England football quarter final, I was then asked to leave a £25 deposit which was fine. I then was supplied further information via e-mail regarding the pre-order of drinks as sometimes the bar could get quite busy. Included in these prices were 10 bottles of Heineken for £25 and a Pitcher of Heineken for £15. I decided not to do this and take my chances on the day. Arriving on the Saturday, my partner and I were led to our table (Basement area) which was fine with a good view of the TV and informed that the bar would open downstairs just before the match and if we wanted to order food we could do this upstairs, which again was fine. After looking at the menu we decided on a sharing platter @ £16, a bowl of fries for £3.50 and a Pitcher of beer for £15. . By my maths a total of £34.50. Speaking with the barman, he was aware of my £25 deposit and then asked for a further £22.50.? I questioned this and was informed my drinks had been covered by the deposit and the £22.50 was for the food? Not wanting to make a scene, i payed the money and returned to my table with my partner and my Pitcher of beer! Now in my mind, when i think of a Pitcher of beer, I think German style approx 3-4 pints of fluid? Its fair to say that Gem's pitcher resembles a narrow flower vase, that I doubt was holding any more than 2 pints of fluid. ( I had just been charged £25 for this and overcharged for my food)! Certainly the 10 bottles of Heineken for £25 were looking like better value. Our food then arrived, which to be fair was very good. I had in the meantime passed on my concern at being over charged to a member of staff, who promised me she would look into my tab and get back to me..... She didn't.? Before leaving I tried one further attempt at speaking with the bar staff and explained the situation, only to be told my £25 deposit was for the beer pitcher and the £22.50 was for my food?? So overcharged for both then? Overall a shame as a cool bar, good food and a great atmosphere for the food. I just hate being ripped off and albeit a small amount of money, it still leaves a sour taste.

I work minutes away from Gem bar so I'm a regular but only just joined trip advisor so thought I'd say that Gem bar is a great venue to have a quick drink (happy hour till 8pm) and also if you're hungry, the food is also very nice. Bar food off course but very tasty. Staff are friendly. I find the door staff to be polite but if they see anyone messing around, very drunk etc, they will ask you to leave. Standard practice though.All in all, I've been there dozens of times and had no issues.

I went in this bar with my work colleagues after we finished our shift, around midnight. We had a couple of beers and a bottle of wine. I got to say, the bartenders were accommodating and DJ was decent, but the bitterness came at the closing time. One of the security told me to finish my beer before going out. I've politely asked if I could just hide it underneath my jacket until I get away from the bar and then finish it, since it's only a plastic cup. He then responded aggressively, raising his voice, telling me to never come here again! FYI, I did not resist to leave the place, I even rushed my colleagues, because I knew the staff of Gem wants to finish too. His behaviour is unacceptable, I work in hospitality too, and I personally could never be so rude to a guest. I believe the management should look into the people they hire, because in this sector of employment there's no place for people like this.

Firstly, let me explain that this review is NOT based on any bad experience with service etc. Actually I found the staff quite helpful and kind. The venue is not bad at all either - it is not great but would do. However the minute I entered the bar I felt so uncomfortable and, frankly, unsafe. I understand that the Gem Bar has little (if any) influence on what sort of people are coming there however for me, a rather petite white girl, the experience was terrifying - staring with a guy trying to grab me by my waist on the stairs down to the lower lever, ending with another one making sickening comments - I felt like a product and not like a woman and I know that my friends felt the same therefore we left after literally 10 minutes. Now, I appreciate that there are people looking for this kind of attraction (unrecognisable electro music, men looking for a one night stand, etc - that was the impression that I got!) however if you are like me - looking for a nice club where you can dance without risking someone will try to push their bodies toward yours and where you can enjoy a better music, I would say it is better to avoid this place.Again, this review is based solely on my personal preferences and I think it is just the way it is - you like some places more and some less. Unfortunately I cannot imagine going back to this place as whenever I think about this venue I feel really uncomfortable. Now, I am an outgoing person and I love parties, but this was just one of the worst experience I have ever had. Sorry.

This is our local fir drinks after work, been here loads of times since 2012. Gem had a refurbishment last year and can see this makes all the difference. The bookings team have been excellent every single time. I've signed up to the neighbour membership (Free of charge) which gives you all sorts of offers. I emailed in the afternoon on Tuesday and asked if we could have a area for an hour an half for the next day thinking its short notice so may not be possible or will just get a small area. What we received was a private area with a foosball table and beer pong game area, the area I booked was for free of charge and a bottle of bubbly thrown in. the customer service is always great every time I attend. The range of drinks are really good and they have happy hour!!!

Although there are not many options in the menu (for dinner they only serve platters, at lunch you can get a proper meal) it was exactly what I was looking for, some nibbles and some drinks. After dinnner we moved to a booth at the club and I didn't have to pay a huge deposit.

Al entrar nos saludó de muy mala gana una chica italiana, nos dispusimos a pedir unos cockteles que tenían solo zumo, por el precio que tienen ya podían poner más alcohol y los vasos podían estar más limpios.Fui a comentarlo en la barra, ya que me parecía un robo y la misma chica italiana me dijo que eso es lo que había, que si quería mas alcohol que tendría que pagar más, mirándome con desprecio. A esto se suma las miradas y risitas detrás de la barra hacia mi y mis amigas, supongo que no les gustaba que fuesemos gays, algo bastante extraño en Londres...En fin, una velada horrible en un sitio que nunca recomendaría.

It was Halloween weekend and a friend had organised a night out to meet at Gem Bar. As I had heard mixed opinions of the venue from people that I knew I thought I would give it a try anyway.And I will not say I was disappointed as I was not. Because on arrival the member of staff at the door very professionally told me where the reserved area for my group was and the bar staff were just as friendly and professional.And compared to some other bars they were quite fast with service at the bar too. What put me off a bit though was the music played at the venue was current but not of the best standard in my opinion.What I mean is the tunes came across as very badly remixed and was quite difficult for me to dance along to. Like i said, it's just my opinion as some people did seem to enjoy themselves. I would just personally recommend that they make their venue music a bit less remixed and play more original versions of songs to dance to.

We used to go to Gem at least once a week as it was close to work, and had a great happy hour. That was really its only attraction - we spent most of our time stood outside. Since getting a job elsewhere in the city, we slowly got bored and started looking elsewhere, and haven't really had a reason to go back. However, once I got an email that the bar had been refurbished, we decided to go down on a Saturday to check it out.The décor is nice - 'Shoreditch lite' I called it - but the booths were comfy and the layout hadn't really changed. However, the décor wasn't the only thing that was overhauled.Gone are the surly rude bar staff, often young girls in hot pants and push up bras making crappy drinks. The staff were wonderful, attentive, fun, polite. The new cocktail menu was brilliant, nice and imaginative and made a difference from the same old crap they churn out in town. The food was hugely improved - we opted top share a classic platter and I could have honestly eaten a whole platter to myself!The 'photobooth' was so much fun, although maybe a bit misplaced to have it right next to the toilet/clockroom unless you like a stream of strangers walking behind you iny our pics! Also great to know that they kept on the bathroom attendant Liz, who has been there years and is always so much fun to chat with.All in all, I am definitely adding Gem back onto my rotation of places to go for drinks/food.

I attended the re-launch of Gem bar and was thoroughly impressed. What was not to like, cocktails, food, Selfie mirror, graffiti artist and more! When it comes to after work drinks, I wouldn't look any further with cocktail offers daily and some great sharing platters, your night can't simply start any better. I have organised work parties in Gem and events Manager Vanessa has been amazing not to mention the girls at the bar. Will be back probably monthly and highly recommend especially with their new look.

The best Bar in London, amazing location and super friendly and charming staff. Sat on the bar and ordered pitchers of Porn star Martini. It is the best cocktail i have ever had. Great music and amazing vibe. This is always my go to location whenever I am in London. Had my Birthday bash there recently and all my friends have fallen in love with the place as well. This place is more than just value of money. So upset that it is shut for refurbishment but super interested to see how the new look will turn out when we visit next week. Definitely recommend it to everyone.

I didn't think much of this place. Not really any atmosphere but it was quiet upstairs. Downstairs was blocked off due to a private function which is fine but the music was much better downstairs.

Un bar sympa sans prise de tête dans le cœur de Soho, nous y sommes allés pour le lunch du midi des plats de qualité et de fraîcheur, un service super sympa une grande carte des boissons est proposée de quoi satisfaire au plus grand nombre. De plus au moment où l'on commande une boisson avec un plat une réduction est faite sur ce dernier, de quoi alléger l'addition, qui ne sera pas excessif surtout pour le quartier !!

We came a Saturday afternoon which was very nice. Food and beverage was really good and surely something to recommend. Glasses though was quiet dirty (something you'd probably would expect from a pub/club like this). What bothered me even more though was the service, which was so poor. The girl who served me was in such a bad mood, no smile whatsoever. Just very moody -and the more I ordered the more moody she became. She should maybe be thankful that I paid her salary that day instead. It was just really disappointing regarding the service unfortunately.

I had my birthday gathering here recently. I love Gem because it is always a great place to go out with friends because the drinks deals are good, the music is always on point and the crowd is always a good mix of people who are there to let their hair down and have fun.I will be back again very soon!

A hidden ‘ Gem ’ just behind Regents street. We’ve been visiting Gem Bar for a couple of years now and, apart from being great value in the happy hour periods, the staff are lovely and really professional. Sabina, Andrea and Jago are so friendly warm and welcoming, and know how to make a cocktail that kicks... We tried some of their Tapas style snacking menu recently, the calamari and pop corn chicken with Korean-style BBQ sauce, were really tasty and went perfectly with a fantastic bottle of New Zealand Sauvignon at a steal of a price. At weekends it full on party time, but early evenings especially on a Sunday Gem bar is a cool and calm oasis. See you again soon girls! XXX

I went to this bar with a friend Monday 13th June afternoon time till about 9/10 o clock. The bar i must say has a lovely atmosphere, the decor brings a nice feel to the bar also. They do serve food but didn't have it personally but would try again next time i go. Drinks are decent price they have a 50% off drinks which is a bonus so 3 drinks you would spend £15 or less which is a bargin. The staff, well one particular didn't speak good english as such as i wanted to know more about the drinks which i would recommend training on in regards to this and also staff were not always aware of customers but the manager or supervisor was lovely in general. I would come again

Stopped by for drinks after a visit to regent street. Looked like a fun place and it was happy hour. ordered a dry martini and long island iced tea. both drinks were badly made and one tasted like diet coke and the other had too much vermouth.

Nous cherchions un bar pour faire la fete un samedi soir et nous sommes tombes au bon endroit. Nous avons paye 5£ a l'entree mais nous avons pu profite du bar et danser, les cocktails etaient excellents. Ensuite nous sommes alles dans la partie club qui se trouve en bas.

I have been to Gem Bar a lot in the past 5 years and it has actually started feeling like our own place. Myself, my family and my friends all enjoy celebrating birthdays and occasions at this bar. The staff is very friendly and helpful, even the attendants in the toilets are very helpful. You are looked after well at this bar. I have been to birthdays, hen nights, leaving parties and even just for drinks. The music is great and the atmosphere is just right!!

After a very friendly hello from the welcoming doorman, we ventured into Gem Bar on Saturday night for a much needed drink after shopping. The hostess (lovely northern accent and very charming), couldn't have been more helpful and found us an area that had a reservation at 9pm. Before 9 she found us another area as we were on a roll with the cocktails. Will be recommending to friends as the staff were very friendly (clearing good at their jobs).

Ahora es Jamie's Italian a menos que lo hizo dentro de los últimos 10 días. Estaba a corta distancia a pie de nuestro hotel, Kensington cerca. Lo elegimos porque tenía mesas al aire libre. Simplemente no es usado para ir hasta el bar para pedir comida, pero supongo que eso es un 'pub' cosa? Tenía un Perroni (no estoy seguro de ortografía) cerveza y la corva de jamón, puerros y zanahoria tarta con guisantes mashers y se llenaba, cebollas y calabacín. Muy bueno. No vi una falta de buen servicio o personal antipático. Estaba lleno de un montón de gente, siempre es una buena señal. Era más agradable sentarse fuera que dentro.

Llamé al pasar para tomar un café y un almuerzo. Muy decepcionado de que no hubiera opciones sin gluten para mi esposa, ni siquiera la sopa (que era muy sabrosa). Tampoco pan sin gluten, por lo que ni siquiera podía comer un sándwich. Todo lo que podía tener era una ensalada de frutas preenvasada. Muy mala revisión como resultado en este día y época en que todos estos establecimientos deberían ser adecuadamente conscientes de las alergias y satisfacer diversas necesidades. ¡No es ciencia de cohetes amigos! !

Gracias por la encantadora tarde. El té de la tarde era realmente agradable y agradable. Sin embargo, al entrar en el restaurante, nos llevaron a sentarnos donde ya había seis personas sentadas y todos estaríamos realmente aplastados sentados entre ellos sin privacidad para hablar, ya que todos habríamos estado hablando entre nosotros. Pedimos si había otros asientos y luego nos sentamos en la terraza donde había muchos asientos. Luego nos dejaron con un menú por la camarera, pero no hay explicación de la reserva que habíamos hecho y lo que deberíamos estar mirando. Un camarero vino 5 minutos después para decir si estábamos listos, y fue entonces cuando le pedí al camarero que confirmara para qué estábamos reservados y confirmara el menú. Tanto la camarera y el camarero que nos sirvieron y nos sentaron no parecían estar interesados y no mostraron servicio al cliente, lo que es una gran pena, así que no es realmente un comienzo agradable para el té de la tarde que había reservado. Mientras tomábamos el té de la tarde, otras dos camareras vinieron a ver si todo estaba bien y si necesitábamos algo, Ambas mostraron tanto entusiasmo e interés que fue una sensación tan agradable y es una pena que no obtuvimos ese servicio cuando entramos, nos sentamos y nos sirvieron.

En pub som jag alltid trillar in på när jag har vägarna förbi. Mix av turister och Londonbor. Inget speciellt med puben i sig men de är alltid snabba på att servera.
