Shrub and Shutter in Lambeth

Lovely atmosphere, food, service and incredible drinks- will definitely be visiting again!

The most amazingly run little gem in London. Such a cool vibe with great music. The front of house are welcoming, kind and considerate. The cocktails on offer are unique and DELICIOUS. Thank you so much!! We will be back

It is a lovely venue but fell below expectations regarding their service. We waited a good while till we got served and regularly had to call the waiter for attention. Food was nice, but one of our dishes were forgotten about. It's a lovely venue but fell below expectations. We shouldn't have to chase down the waiters when were spending £45pp.

The food was brilliant. Would especially recommend the chicken skewers and the roasted fennel. Cocktails were also really special. Would definitely recommend.

Existent service from Tammy, would definitely stop by again

Cute little cocktail bar with great food and nice staff. Really nice vibe for a date spot, great selection of cocktails. We had a few of the small plates as well and they were very tasty!

Highly recommend Shrub and Shutter - food, wine, cocktails were delicious! Great service, polite, friendly so efficient - definitely returning and bringing our friends ❤️😊

Very nice people in there. Managed to squeeze us in for a few quick drinks. Will visit again

I went to Shrub and Shutter on a first date on Friday and thought the cocktails were fantastic - some of the best I've found in South London! Particularly recommend the Aperol/Mezcal-based special (can't remember the name of it!) The staff were attentive and friendly - the owner was a delight and gave us some interesting info on the cocktails. We enjoyed the Pan Con Tomate and the cheesy croquettes also. Give this place a go

Cozy place. Great for drinks and a chat

Delicious food which was very well presented - can recommend the roast fennel and the bavette steak. Beer served in frosty glasses and delicious cocktails! We booked with the August offer on the website so the price was very reasonable 👍

As a Latin American, finding a place with cocktails made with spirits from my lands is an experience that brings me home. Good music, incredible staff and the comfort of the place exceeds all expectations, widely recommended

Amazing cocktails, really cool vibe, good music and really nice staff

Booked the whole venue for a private function! celebrated my birthday here and was a great venue for my intimate celebrations. Had around 45-50 people for cocktails and drinks. There’s two rooms, the bar up front where everyone walks in, then the back room where we spent most of the night with the DJ. Claudia was great in answering any questions I had beforehand, helped us book the DJ, as well as agreeing to add shots to the menu. The cocktails/ drinks were delicious and you could tell the team put a lot of effort in. Alfie and the team were great on the night and had quick service throughout! Really happy with the whole thing and would recommend for a private event.

What a delightful find - a little gem in Brixton ❤️

Great place with fab cocktails, intimate vibe.

This place is amazing: food is delish, cocktails are unreal, super vibey atmosphere - perfect to impress for date night or dinner with the girls - and all at a super reasonable price!

Excellent drinks and great help with recommendations

Was not open when we arrived with a reservation. Owners did not update google maps with it being temporarily or permanently closed, and should’ve also disabled online booking system. Very misleading, wasted an evening

Lovey food, ambiance and waitress!

Amazing food and excellent service. We'll repeat!

Some of the worst service I’ve ever experienced in London. The waitress was incredibly rude, impatient, and unpleasant. It’s a shame because the place has the potential for being a really nice spot but the way we were treated made us never want to go back. Truly a shame. She couldn’t even be bothered to serve us wine in a wine glass, poured it in a cup of water and then very reluctantly brought a wine glass when we suggested we requested it. BAD VIBES

Absolutely incredible. Delicious food and cocktails from a passionate couple. Worked with dietary requirements cocktails were incredible and the croquettes, tomatoes and fennel were unreal and the olives we ate like popcorn. We will be back. You need to go.

Trekked across London to visit as they said they were open the entire bank holiday weekend. Closed at 6.15pm. Either they shut very early or open very late - either way that's not the entire weekend. Not amused.

Pisco Sour is incredible and the food is very delicious. The croquettes are like in Spain and the bread with tomato too. Very good price, very good atmosphere and highly recommended!!!!

The most delicious and interesting cocktails in London - every time I come I learn something new, or discover a new flavor and combination! The croquettes were very delicious, the atmosphere is very cozy and great service!

Great bar, really nice cocktails. Likely the best cocktail bar in the Brixton area.

How do more people not know about this place? Don't get me wrong it was packed but the food is on another level and for a reasonable price. Even the Olives were exceptionally. Literally ever ingredient was carefully selected and prepared beautiful. The highlight was the steak bavette but all dishes were top class. The drinks were delicious, I had the lager (try it with an orange peel, I am trying to start a trend) and the wofe had a cocktail woth smoke, served in a box. Really cool. Staff kind, fun and uplifting. The atmosphere was chilled, cool vibe with a dj. Love this place will be going back again soon. Best place in Streatham.

Great restaurant lovely service completely understanding of my nut allergy and made Valentines very special for me and my partner. Great music and vibe.

5* - would really recommend this place! Came here for drinks last night. The staff were very friendly and made a proper effort to ensure that we were happy and comfortable. The cocktails were very tasty and the overall vibes were great. Will 100% be returning soon on a Friday/Saturday to listen to one of the DJs!

Amazing food and service- really lovely evening!!

One of those joints almost too good that you don’t wanna tell your friends about it!

Had an amazing night out at the shrub and shutter. Staff are really friendly and they have an excellent range of different types of drinks and cocktails. It was really nice to experience a place were we could vibe chill out relax have a drink whilst listening to the dj play some tunes. Absoultlly loved this place.

Great atmosphere and great cocktails. Will definitely come back when out and about in Brixton.

The drinks and customer service were exceptional. Will be coming here again. Highly recommended joint. Plus, the music was on point.

Tammie was amazing!! The service was 5 star and the atmosphere was amazing. The customer service, DJ, candles, drinks and food was amazing. I will definitely be coming back soon. Thank you Tammie!

Super Nice food nice dj and super cool staff! Thank you ! :) ❤️

Absolutely delightful! The staff are all incredibly friendly and welcoming. The pisco sours were amazing and the food was delicious too. A really cosy place with great music and atmosphere.

The best pisco sours, absolutely delicious food and the orange wine was a TREAT! It’s a super cosy vibe, perfect for a date. And the owners are really lovely - even gave us an extra free treat. If you live in Brixton, this is a must visit!!!!

Good great and so reasonably priced. + points for dogs :)

This is a gorgeous bar with great drinks and amazing food, the staff is the best and specially Tammie that made our experience absolutely perfect! It’s a must in Brixton!

Sick candle lit latino bar, was a vibe. Staff were super friendly and music n cocktails were on point!

Amazing cocktails, staff were super friendly

Locally sourced ingredients and delightful drinks and service, can't wait to come back!

Delicious cocktails and really nice atmosphere. Between 4 of us we tried the whole menu.

Fantastic bar Top tier cocktails The bar staff are warm and welcoming Especially Tammie

really pleasant experience, food was great quality, service was friendly and love the overall vibe and atmosphere

Food was incredible! Lovely place for a cute date. Cocktails great too

Amazing spot tucked away in Brixton away from the madness of the strip but close enough to the action. Great cocktails, food and warm and welcoming vibes whilst also feeling like a cool hidden gem. They had a DJ playing vinyl records when I went which had me constantly reaching for my phone to Shazam. Plus would highly recommend for the 1st or 50th date. I’m Brixton born and raised and definitely my favourite spot. Had the pleasure of meeting the lovely couple who run it and their passion for the place definitely comes through in the food, drink and atmosphere. Looking forward to my next visit.

Lovely place, was very empty the night we went (more staff than people drinking!) unfortunately. Great cocktail menu. Would love to see a non-alcoholic/virgin selection offered also.

Very friendly and lovely music. Love it. The food really nice and fresh.

The place was wonderful,the waiter was lovely,the food was impeccable and best off all the scenery was so relaxing

I went yesterday for the first time after a friend suggested it, everything was perfect, incredible drinks, very good food and the staff are very welcoming.. really recommend it!

I come with my gf to have a dinner and we have an amazing great time, service really nice and kind, cocktails incredibles

Uno de los mejores lugares de Brixton. Tiene un ambiente muy agradable, con DJ en vivo. La comida es excelente con una fusión entre sabores mediterraneos y latinos. Tiene variedad de cócteles, "Tesoro Oro" es una experiencia muy divertida, pero en lo personal mi favorito es "Island Life". La atención al cliente es muy buena y acogedora. Sin duda un lugar donde volvería ir para seguir desgustando sus platos y cócteles.

Food was okay, I didn’t find the dining experience very comfortable, tables and chairs were a little rocky and all felt very cramped. Unfortunately a really quiet atmosphere when we went, but I’m sure it’s a bit more of a vibe when it’s busier ☺️

On walking in its a little hidden gem, looking a bit like a coffee shop, chilled vibes and the bar snacks are gorgeous. We loved the manchego Croquettes. The drinks menu is hard to understand but the servers are happy to explain. The drinks are very unique, they are small and strong. We had 2 each and we werent that fussed maybe we chose the wrong ones but I had a strong smokey one

Such a lovely place, really great atmosphere and the service was amazing!

Banging drinks in a cosy off the beaten track location

Wonderful experience here - both the food and service. Recommend for sure!

Amazing night here! Brilliantly curated food and drink menu which changes often. Service was top drawer and the soundtrack was great too! One of the best bars in London IMO

Lovely venue with a great vibe. The staff are super friendly and helpful. We’ll be back!

We had a great time, Lovely atmosphere, great cocktails and delicious food

Love this place, really great little hidden gem. Highly recommend the prawns, so good!

This is the cutest little place. Awesome cocktails, and great small plates. The old fashioned, amazing! Loved the the DJ in the back room too. Perfect for a date night. Will visit again.

Great atmosphere and even better drinks. The Pisco Sour was one of the best I've had outside of Chile! My new favourite venue.

Awesome hangout - great cocktails, friendly staff and decent food. Will make it a regular spot when I’m down!

Intimate and welcoming with a great vibe, creative menu and top notch service! Can’t wait to be back in Brixton to visit again

Awesome cocktails, Palermo picante was on the money, shame we didn't have time to try the food as it sounded great.

I’ve loved the Shrub for a long time and now with Alfie it’s even better. Best cocktail bar in Brixton and one of the best in London for sure

Amazing place. Original recipes, incredible food. Alfie is an incredible head bar owner and main cocktail scientist.

Was introduced to the place a week ago and gotta say - very impressed! The place has this cosy, intimate vibe with a few small tables in the front, which is great for dates, but there’s also some bigger space for bigger get togethers in the back. We tried marinated olives (delicious product), empanadillas (perfect crispiness), croquettas de manchego (sooo nice and creamy inside), bavette steak (fire!), roasted fennel (liked the nutty finishing A LOT) and finished it all off with some really hot oxtail nuggets. Especially the latter were something to write home about. Actually, everything was, including delicious cocktails and very professional yet friendly staff <3 (thank you so much Alfie and Claudia!). I hope I’ll be able to drop by again sooner than later!

I've been there 4 or 5 times since the new management took over, and I've gotta say that it's becoming my new favourite spot in Brixton. Super cosy vibe, great music, attentive and knowledgeable staff, fantastic fresh food, and very good, balanced cocktails that are on point! A must visit in South London.

Really friendly service serving great/unconventional cocktails. Can't ask for much more. I enjoyed a slightly spicy Paloma.

Lovely evening and great staff, food and cocktails great too!

Alfie Torres has just taken the site on and the difference is night amd day. Great drinks and incredible food. Try the empanadas!

Such a great place where they put craft into everything. The cocktails were pretty magical and theatric!

Best customer service I’ve experienced in a long time. Very warm and friendly. Jerk chicken tacos were amazing, cocktails were beautifully done. Highly recommended.

Came here for a wind down drink after a long day at work and this place was incredible. Ollie, Jay and Liam were incredibly fantastic. If you want a high quality cocktail in Brixton for an adorable price + amazing customer service I would highly recommend this place!

Massive thanks to Liam, Ollie and Jay in the kitchen! Great prices, awesome food portions, but most of all INCREDIBLE hospitality and service all round from the team! Will be back very soon! Lots of love Ellie and Theo ❤️

Love this place! Excellent cocktails, great food and friendly staff 🍸🥃

Absolute gem. Fantastic cocktails, even better service.

Probably, almost definitely, the best cocktails I've had in London. The cocktails have a kick, a lasting memory which has made Shrub and Shutter my go to cocktail bar in London! The food is great too, full of flavour! But to top it off are the staff who make you feel at home with their great hospitality and personable vibes - in particular Liam, with the good energy and jokes! Looking for Great Cocktails, Great Food and Great Vibes... Come to Shrub and Shutter!

Had a lovely time! Liam made us a few delicious amaretto sours some of the best I’ve had , had such a lovely waitress who was super chatty and so sweet . Will definitely come again!

I LOVE IT HERE!!!!!! great drinks and vibes love it loads

Lovely cosy personal bar with great staff 😀

Such a good hidden gem. Fun, great cocktails, friendly staff, perfect for a little date or drink.

Fantastic evening with stunning and creative cocktails. (We tried 12 during the evening so well placed to comment!) Great music, great food and great vibe. There were four of us and we all really enjoyed it. The delicious food was by La Mesa and would definitely recommend. We’ll be back soon to enjoy the guitar as well! Thanks guys 👍

The best cocktail bar in Brixton! Cocktails were really unique, and the service provided by Liam was outstanding.

A lovely and atmospheric cocktail bar, serving delicious unusual cocktails. I had the lemongrass gin with fig and citrus, which was so good! Very good value too. The food was probably the best I have had for a long time. Packed with flavours, beautiful presentation, Great service, welcoming, a gem.

Had a great night here - the drinks are delicious; genuinely had one of the best cocktails I’ve ever had. Big up Liam for the laughs & amazing service!

Visited at 5:30 on a Saturday and were pleasantly surprised to be told it was happy hour! Mezcal cocktail was delicious and would return specifically for that! Staff friendly and welcoming.

Our favourite bar in south London! A lovely hidden spot with fabulous drinks and wonderful, welcoming staff. The drinks really are spectacular and original. We keep coming back to try the new specials. They always have flavours and combinations you couldn't find anywhere else.

Bartender was great - made a personalised cocktail when preferred cocktail wasn’t on the menu. Definitely will be back again - intimate bar, great staff, great vibes!

Super tasty food, amazing cocktails and mocktails and the staff are awesome! Been here a few times and enjoyed each night!

Massive massive Thankyou to all staff this evening- came for cocktails and dinner with my in laws and throughly enjoyed every bite we had this evening. Both servers were fantastic and so lovely ❤️ Service as a whole was fantastic, friendly and engaging (plus amazing tattoos!) Food was such high quality and the chef was so friendly and accommodating, even creating us the most wonderful ice-cream sandwiches ❤️ Honestly cannot say thankyou enough for such a wonderful experience from start to finish. All the best from Cornwall - (thank you for smiling at my half-cut thank yous!) cannot wait to come back for more! X

Most welcoming place I visited during a two day stay to London. No non-alcoholic versions of their cocktails advertised but they jumped at the chance to make me something delicious based on the loose criteria I gave them.

When last night to try out the new menu and it was delicious! New chef was great!!!!

Staff are great, cocktails are top notch. No scrimping on the measures but not at the detriment to the overall flavour. They also have a few cocktails that bring a bit of theatre to proceeding (I won's spoil that bit as it's fun to find out for yourself). I was lucky enough to taste several of their "one weekend only" cocktails, as a member of the team - much like any classic cop buddy movie - "came out of retirement" for one last time. Will definitely go back there - great for small groups of friends or for a date.
