The Perseverance - Marylebone in City of London, Westminster

Really nice location with lovely cocktails and friendly staff

Went for drinks only. We experienced slowish service, but overall I thought this was an excellent bar. Brilliant live acoustic guitar music on our Friday night visit added to the experience.

Food was absolutely delicious but low armchairs and small tables not conducive to eating! Otherwise, very nice!

Cocktail bar…quiet place on a Saturday night…good for couple

Honestly amazing! Just want to see this bar get more people coming to it

Staff are brilliant - Liam’s brilliant the vibe is cracking, Recommend coming here

Great service, only surpassed by Brontee's genial hospitality

Great place if you wish to have a cozy time on couches and sofas. Maya is a great host and a bartender.

Went there for a friends bday party Good and friendly staff However the place does not have air conditioning so can get super hot inside during summer !

Exceptionally friendly staff and sublime cocktails. We enjoyed some nibbly bits like nachos and cheese board also.

Real nice staff with good cocktails, Enjoy the time we spent there. 😊

Good selection of high quality signature cocktails and nice interior. Drinks are a bit pricey but you get what you pay for.

This is an absolutely lovely cocktail lounge not far from Marylebone Station. Lots of atmosphere (music, lighting and seating) perfect for a date or catching up with friends. The Dirty Martini was a perfect rendition. The Rose Cloud was delicious and refreshing. They have a few snacks available and are working on menu. We'll Be back.

Cute bar, promising menu, service was patchy but it seemed they were doing their best. In an area with no other bars this is pretty good

Very low key vibes, chill lounge situation. Took them 20+ min to create three cocktails for our group when our drinks were the only ones they were working on. The drinks were awful, watered down, and just not worth it.

Turned up for our booking at 3pm on Sunday (also clarified by opening hours listed on Google here) and no one was in. No lights on. Door locked. Rubbish out the front. Proper closed. Waited until 3:15pm. What happened?!

No jazz this evening, but the Perseverance still impressed with fabulous cocktails and a super chill vibe.

Lovely decor and atmosphere Great friendly owner Comfortable and intimate seating Tasty cocktails! What more could you want?

Very good drinks, and warm services.

WORST BAR - AVOID : 30 of us celebrated one of my friends' birthday in this bar earlier this month and we came ot realise that we had been charged 20-30% service charges on ALL of our drinks the all night without asking. Two cocktails were coming at £38 !!!! Just ridiculous. Then my friend was charged a crazy amount of money (£500) for 3 very small bites of food per person - not even good. Just avoid , they're thiefs

We had a great night - live music, super friendly and accommodating staff, nice wine. It was not noisy so we could actually hear each other. Overall amazing experience.

Gorgeous decor, extremely friendly bar staff, and the best dirty martini I’ve had in years. Perfect for drinks near Marylebone station if you’ve got a train to wait for and don’t want to frequent the grimy station pub. Recommend.

Nestled away in Marylebone, The Persévérance is a true hidden gem. As soon as you step inside, you're embraced by the bar's wonderful taste for simplicity. The beautiful, cozy interiors and homey feeling foster a welcoming atmosphere. We felt right at home thanks to the warm welcome from the attentive staff. While the bar has only just opened its doors, it's already attracting devoted regulars drawn to its signature cocktails and intimate vibe - and I am one of them. Don't miss out on trying one of their signature cocktails!

Fantastic service providing excellent drink options in chic glasses in a calm and homey environment.

We loved it. Check out the amazing signature cocktails in this lounge in a backstreet of marylebone. A real discovery.

Absolutely fell in love with this place, as it was our first stop in London!! The aesthetic is so giving and pleasing! Pablo is so welcoming and is an expert as an mixologist! His drinks are absolutely fire! He asked to pick a number 1-995 from a cocktail book, for a surprise drink! That drink ended up being the BEST drink and reminded me of home! Thank you for being so generous with your hospitality!! Great spot! 10/10 recommended!

Amazing hidden gem tucked away on a quiet street in Marleybone. Cheaper and better cocktails than the Mirror bar just a couple blocks over at the Landscape. Must visit!

A hidden treasure! Exquisite and creative drinks and very friendly staff. Well priced. A standout in the Marylebone area. A must-visit.

An amazing place with exceptional drinks and atmosphere and incredibly hospitable staff! I appreciate the opportunity to sample your off-menu cocktail, which I personally find delightful, especially the aromatic yet Smokey notes of dry vermouth. Many thanks!!!

Really lovely bar, just a short walk from Marleybone station, recently refurbished with a quirky speakeasy feel. Very friendly and knowledgeable staff on all drinks and cocktails, would definitely recommend, shame I forgot to take photos!

Are you still open? Came by tonight for drinks and was all dark.

Changed Hands? We came here after having been recommended. The place was virtually empty on a Friday evening and completely lacking in atmosphere. The drinks menu was extremely limited with only a handful of cocktails on offer and some of them were unavailable and the staff appeared uninterested. Very disappointed.

wow awesome place and awesome service I love this bar so much

Amazing place! Loved the place and the service.. amazing vibes! :)

Very friendly staff. The cocktails were delicious I had the pina colada. The place is super cozy and beautifully designed and decorated. I highly recommend it

Great spot for drinks. Started an evening here and it was the perfect place for a few pre-dinner delicious cocktails. The glassware was excellent, the drinks well made and some tasty complimentary nuts were a bonus. The service was quick and the atmosphere felt cosy and nicely lit on a dark autumn evening. We had plans for dinner so headed off after a couple of drinks but would happily of stayed all evening.

The place is not exactly what is described below. In fact, it has changed ownership as they informed us there and therefore, they changed the menu without updating it on the website. Our experience was that we spent time deciding on drinks that they didn't exist and also, we ordered 1 cheese board and they brought us two big ones. Out of kindness we accepted both but their side, they didn't have the kindness to offer at least a discount for the second board and on top, one of the cheese tasted really bad like it was expired. I don't want to mention that it was an overpriced night. I don't recommend the place, it disappointed me and this is one of the rare times that I give such a bad review.

Unfortunately this place has changed hands (Nov 22). Tried tonight and the cocktails were terrible. No more happy hour (although still on website). One of our cocktails had missing ingredients, and was served over ice when it should not be. I hope it picks up but had to update this previous 5 star review. (Original below) A great new(ish) addition to North Marylebone. The cocktails are made with experience, skill and passion. The menu range shows innovation but the team can also make you all the classics or even something bespoke, just tell them what you like. Plus if you fancy something different they also do cocktail classes.

Absolutely amazing experience I went here on my birthday and it was beautiful the food was really good and as for the staff Absolutely beautiful the manager was really kind I told him about my taste pallet due to it being weird and he knew exactly what to bring me when it came to food and drinks I would definitely recommend the perseverance to everyone at least go for the posh experience. Thank you to the team for making my birthday a birthday I won't ever forget 💗

Excellent date night venue. The bar snacks aren't the best but the cocktails more than make up for it!

The place style and environment was really nice. However, the jazz night was disappointing to say the least. Me and my friends purchased tickets to the show and when we came there found out it was an open space with noone asking for entry fee. The jazz singer had a very poor performance (first time, I was at a bad jazz performance) and we left after 30 minutes.

Fantastic little place hidden away on the backstreets of Marylebone - great service, food & drinks and wonderful jazz music to listen to

A lovely, cute place with fantastic service. The music and decor create a relaxed atmosphere. Have the cheese board!

Very much enjoyed our first visit to the perserverance Marylebone, everything was great, the music, Cocktails, drinks and the snacks very reasonably priced.....the staff very friendly too. Will definitely be back soon.

Great spot! Fantastic cocktails and live music.

Beautiful venue with live jazz musicians and a drink selection that was delicious and showed attention to presentation. So glad we stumbled across this spot!

This was a great little find whilst wandering around the quaint streets of Marylebone. It is really inviting from the outside, and delightful once you step inside. The team were very welcoming, friendly, and couldn’t do more to make me feel valued. Will return most certainly.

Great atmosphere and great jazz music, best spot for a weekend getaway!

Very good surprise in Marylebone, love guitar and nice cocktails

Super chilled atmosphere for Saturday evening live jazz session. Really friendly staff made us feel so welcome and at home. Will definitely be back.

Very cozy joint. Vast selection of cocktails. Decent wine. Tentative service. Would defo return.

Came here for the Jazz Saturday night, the atmosphere is great, the staff are nice. Will definitely come back another time for more live music!

Great place Good music Chilled environment Helpful/nice staff

Went to the live jazz evening, music was great, excellent cocktails and service. A superb venue for a relaxing evening

Had a great time trying the whiskey with David- thank you I had a great time

Really great experience, personal whiskey tasting, friendly and welcome staff. Great night out and community experience.

What an experience! My partner and I had a whisky experience booked here and we could not have asked for a better evening! David, the owner, is extremely knowledgeable and passionate about whisky and will keep you entertained for hours. Beautiful venue, excellent prices and the snacks are tasty too! What a well kept secret in Marylebone! We will definitely be back and recommend to anyone who wants a lovely night out!

I can highly recommend the Whisky Tasting at the Perseverance. The host David was excellent and took his time to explain the different whiskies that we tasted. And the whisky was great! A really enjoyable and memorable evening.

Found this place via Google reviews, after having dinner with friends in the area. It's certainly a little hidden gem! The staff were delightful, drinks were pleasant, the atmosphere and music were lovely! The singer for the night sang "happy birthday" to me which was sweet and I adored the birthday cocktail surprise, that the bartender presented as a gift. As the night went on, it was quite stuffy, so I wish the place had air con. Other than that, overall good vibes!

David and The Perseverance team hosted our wedding reception and we have to admit, it was flawless! From the moment we reached out to a couple of days after, they were always on top of everything and had it all handled. They made sure we had food that was adequate for celiacs, vegans, and meat lovers. Our guests could not get enough of their coronation chicken! The cocktails were amazing, and their flexibility and creativity for mocktails was a 5 star experience! They helped us make up our mind regarding canapés and reached out to the jazz band we wanted to hire (on their recommendation, and they were incredible!!). You guys were amazing and made a very special day even more special and smooth as can be! We might have to host some more parties there!!

We recently hired The Perseverance for a post-wedding party. David and his team looked after every little detail and ensured all our guests had a great time! They were so flexible and friendly from the start, helping us create a bespoke drinks and canapés menu. We truly felt like we stumbled upon a hidden gem with The Perseverance and would highly recommend to anyone thinking of hosting a private party here! Thank you David and team :)

Lovely drink and cheese. And as added bonus there was a really nice singer for the evening. The staff is really friendly..... We will come back again.

Popped in for a cocktail or two on the hottest day in history. Had a quick pint to cool down then had my favourite cocktail - the gimlet. The man at the bar (the owner?) then served me a cocktail I’d never had (I asked him to surprise me - always a risk). One “bitter sweet symphony” later and this is my favourite cocktail bar around here (albeit it’s the only one I’ve tried). Lovely place. Friendly man behind the bar - knows all the classics and very knowledgeable. I can hear him know telling other patrons about all the drinks. Well recommended. I think I’ll be here tomorrow and the next day too.

What an incredible cocktail bar. Owner David pits his heart and soul into the place and he deserves to succeed. We will be back when we are in London. His Singapore Sling and Espresso Martini were superb.

Nice,Mello Vibe,Jazz was Playin When I Got there.Went there When it Was a Pub B4,But,oh Well.

Seriously the best cocktails in town! Quality alcohol, friendly staff and great vibe. Probably one the best cocktail bar in London!

Excellent decor, nice selection, and friendly staff

David and his team are the best. Great cocktails, relaxed atmosphere, and amaZing service

Great place for a cocktail. The staff is friendly and take their art seriously. There is a huge variety of exquisite and delicious drinks. Their long list of tonics is fun to sample. Definatly give it a try.

Very nice decor, the live music was fantastic and great cocktails, also one of the bar staff very funny but saying that all the staff are warm and friendly.

I’ve never left a review anywhere before but I loved this place, the relaxed ambiance, the lovely live music and the staff were great. I really enjoyed the food too. Would definitely recommend to a friend!

Great, intimate atmosphere with live music. We shared a cheese board with wine and would definitely recommend spending part of an evening here.

Great atmosphere very friendly staff and well priced cocktails.

Excellent service, bar staff all incredibly friendly. Atmosphere is really nice too. All round great venue.

This place is a gem just by Marylebone station. Took my mother here for a whisky tasting which was absolutely fantastic. Excellent variety of Scottish whiskies & the cocktails which we had afterwards were superb. Staff were outstanding - very impressed and glad we stumbled across this venue.

Fantastic place, music and cocktails! A true gem in Marylebone!

Love this place. This is a secret little gem near Marylebone. The live music on weds was really nice and the staff are very friendly. I'll definitely be coming back again.

A true local gem of Marylebone! There’s not many great places that side of the Marylebone Rd. But Perseverance truly shines! They’ve got amazing cocktails, fantastic wine, and an amazing chat! Keep an eye on events - they do a lot of things - from jazz gigs to cocktail making lessons.

This place is a hidden gem and only a minute's walk from Marylebone station. We were so glad we stumbled across it - happened to have live music on when we went. Chilled and cosy vibes. Drinks were superb too with a genuinely knowledgeable bartender - try the Kentucky Butter!

Best cocktails for 5 miles in all directions

Amazing cocktails! Make sure you order a cheese platter too 🤤

Excellent cocktails. Amazing bar staff! If you're looking for a night of enjoyment, then decibel check this place out. Good vibes all around.

Lovely drinks, cosy atmosphere and very warm and welcoming staff!

David and Ash were both amazing! They both made me feel super welcome. Great drinks, great vibes and great staff. What more could you want!

Fantastic Martini Masterclass. Very friendly, welcoming and deliciously crafted Martinis including a Martinez, Gibson and Dirty Martini. Will definitely be returning for a night of cocktails soon.

Wonderful bar close to the station. Had a few drinks all of which were fantastic. Lovely staff, great vibe. Will definitely be back soon :)

Amazing spot for a great cocktail and nibbles. Service was top notch too ☺️

I’ve visited this cocktail bar multiple times now. The staff are very friendly and attentive. You also get a free welcome drink which is nice! They have very good stock of alcohol and wines. The platters are also delicious! Highly recommended of you’re in the area! Oh and defo try Kentucky butter cocktail YUM!!!

Fantastic makeover from a typical no frills local neighborhood pub into a new intimate eclectic cocktail lounge with a fantastic selection of whiskies as well! Planning to be a regular from now on. David and Mihailis were wonderful welcoming hosts and they informed that there would be live music nights in the future!

A very enjoyable Martini Masterclass, lovely atmosphere and the other cocktails were delicious too!

Fantastic service, lovely atmosphere and most importantly incredible cocktails 🍸🍹🥃. It's a must visit! We can't wait to return!

Great service - complementary drinks and olives on arrival whilst ordering, classy atmosphere and great cocktails

Very good cocktails and a nice place for a few drinks.

We came in one Saturday night a couple of weeks ago. The cocktails were amazing. Really lovely place, excellent service, and great atmosphere. Dogs are welcome so long as they are well behaved so we took our little dog Martha along and really enjoyed a rare night out without worrying about getting back early to let her out. Can't wait to come back on live music nights. Little gem of a place.

This place changed a lot since a couple of years ago. Nice atmosphere... Def will go back

Superb drinks, superb venue, superb owners.

Finally a place in London I can rely on for a perfect evening! I arrived to a friendly bartender who helped choose the perfect cocktail. As the evening went we got a nice charcuterie board and then a little surprise by a bartender; an impromptu cocktail which I absolutely loved (got 2 more later, it was so good). The bar is very chic and located at the perfect spot to avoid the craziness of Central London despite being in it. Can’t wait to return already!

Was a bit suspicious that this place had all 5 stars, but can confirm that it is deserved. Had a number of great cocktails here.

Very comfortable inside, low lit so good for drinks. Staff are very friendly, and good range of drinks.

Great Service, amazing cocktails, will definitely be back! Thanks for looking after us
