Great bottomless brunch. Chimezie looked after us well If you are going to talk to each other - the music is very loud. Drinks come freely and food very good Be careful of the service charge they add on to your bill!

I had an unforgettable evening at Pianoworks Farringdon! The food was absolutely amazing, with every dish bursting with flavor and beautifully presented. The service was top-notch—staff were attentive, friendly, and made us feel right at home. The live music was the cherry on top, creating an incredible atmosphere with talented performers who had the whole place buzzing. Highly recommend this gem for a fantastic night out!

This is more of a night club than a piano bar (right down to the toilet attendants, ID scanners, rude bouncers) in case that affects anyone's decision to come here. Maybe things are a bit more chill during the week, but not on a weeknight. Literally as soon as we were in and given our table, one of the waitresses demanded we 'be respectful - people are EATING'. I'm guessing she was annoyed that so many of us were at one table... but that's her problem, as we're a respectful party. If sitting so many people in one area is an issue, then manage your bookings and table allocations better. Or maybe it's a problem with the fact that they serve food on busy nights? I'd definitely not be very happy to have booked dinner here and to be stuck in a dank club corner with lots of coming and going past my table. The musicians we saw were generally talented, but do note that they basically won't play anything that's not upbeat/popular enough (maybe for a huge tip?). We managed to get a few songs played, but the most-requested and most highly tipped by us were not played, presumably because they weren't going to please the crowd of clubbers. Fair enough if they can't risk playing a more obscure song, but feels a bit disingenuous

Edited March 29th: We've been here at least 6-7 times, and every time, we had an amazing experience before, but this time the head hostess was hostile. The bouncers were friendly and polite. The bartenders made amazing suggestions and were super friendly. The band is always incredibly talented. Unfortunately, the Piano Works fell sharply short on March 29th. Knowing it was a Saturday, we made a booking and requested to be in view of the musicians. When we got to our table (right next to the toilets far from the musicians), we asked if we could be moved. The lady who seated us sent another woman to discuss the situation. The first thing this lady said was, "What is the problem?" With an attitude like we'd made a huge fuss (except we were very polite and just wanted to know if at any time in the night we could have a better table). She was already quite hostile and seemed pissed off that we even asked for a better spot. We didn't want to add to any hostility. She suggested we just wait at the bar for open tables, and said she'd move us if anything opened up. So that's exactly what we did. We enjoyed our time with the music, and the bartenders were impeccable as usual. We saw an open table where we hoped to be seated and put our coats down. Then, all of a sudden, she came over to us, telling us to move our coats as someone else was coming. Each table had a paper tent that said how long the table was booked for. This table did not, so it was clearly free. There were 3 chairs and only 2 women sat at the table. We asked the women if it was okay to put our belongings at the extra chair and they said it was fine, but she decided to tell security that if we put our belongings on the extra chair that we should be thrown out. While I love the atmosphere, the hostess really turns me off from coming back as I don't want to be greeted with such hostility. For all the times before.. We came here around 5:30 on a Friday, and the vibes were exactly what we were looking for. It was quiet, not crowded at all, and the drinks were all half off. The venue is underground, so it feels exclusive but still casual. Our requests got in fairly quickly, and the musicians were very talented. I requested Flowers, and I loved her cover more than the original.

This place looked amazing, but sadly our experience was really bad. We booked an entry ticket online & was planning to have a meal there & watch the band. It wasn’t made clear to us that the ticket we purchased meant we would be sat in an area where we couldn’t hear or see anything, this wasn’t mentioned anywhere on the ticket confirmation. We complained to the manager but we was just told to watch the band on the tv screen! Despite making it clear to them it was a special treat for my friends 50th birthday, they made no effort to fix things, they wouldn’t let us move tables & they didn’t care that they had ruined my friends birthday plans. Terrible customer service.

Security officer was very rude and mentioned that booking the table doesn’t mean anything and asked us to wait for an hour because they let many people in already. Bit confused what’s the reservation website for… NEVER REPLIED AFTER THIS

Has the makings of a fun night out. Great concept and the band work really hard. Bar staff were a bit unfriendly and cocktails felt a bit small tbh. There is a cloakroom when you walk in. In any case I was there only at the start of the evening so enjoyed the 5-7pm happy hour. The piano starts around 5.30ish. Was quiet early on but if you stay late it will liven up. Almost all tables are reserved. Previous attempts to enter later in the evening were always greeted with a demand for entry fees at the door. I never paid the entry as it’s a bit cheeky when drinks and food inside aren’t cheap.

Loved celebrating my birthday here. First experience and definitely will come back. Fabio, our waiter served our reasonably priced, tasty food and was extremely helpful and accommodating, nothing was too much trouble and he even checked in on us on the dance floor to ensure we were having a great time. The pianist during the meal was talented and the band excellent, with an ability of playing an array of different music genres to dance along to. Highly recommend this place for a great night out and looking forward to returning again soon - thanks!!

Was here the other week and was so disappointed with the attitude from a particular member of staff. I misplaced my phone and had to go back the next day to collect it and it showed on location that it was in the venue. When I arrived I was treated extremely rudely by a female manager, no one helped me and she told other members of staff to stop talking to me. I spent a fortune the night before and it would have been nice to be treated with respect during a clearly very stressful situation for myself. I found her on LinkedIn, her name is Ugne - I advise you send her on a customer service training course and to serve with a smile.

Despite having booked over a month in advance, we were given a table with 3 seats for 11 people. Not even enough space to put our bags down. There were smaller parties with larger capacity tables. I think if we were walk-ins we might have actually had a chance at a better table. Following a conversation with the manager asking for more space, we were then sat at the back section of the establishment, which was dark and dingy and only had a view of the pianos on a highly pixelated screen. The sofas also lined the edges of the room, so there was no way we could all face each other - if you wanted to chat it was restricted to the one or two people next to you. Staff were also impatient and rude from the outset - giving us attitude and not willing to wait for us whilst a last few of us (myself included) handed in our coats in the cloakroom… it is the height of winter in January! Everyone we spoke to was defensive and not open to understanding or listening to us. My friend arrived about 10 minutes late and was forewarned that there had been “a bit of a table issue” at the door, which felt immature and unprofessional. The only reason we didn’t walk out immediately is that I had preordered 2 of overpriced bottles of Prosecco (£36 for each bottle.. only to then have to proactively ask for them to be opened and be handed glasses). After finishing our drinks in record speed, we ended up leaving and going to a Be At One, where at least we were able to sit down, face and talk to each other, and have some semblance of customer service. An overall very unwelcoming and uncomfortable experience. I wouldn’t visit again but if you are planning to visit, I would suggest maybe casually - I don’t recommend booking for a special occasion as you’ll likely be disappointed.

The band MADE this visit…we were on the brunch so £55 pp for 2 hour’s unlimited drink & 2 courses. Our food was barely warm, chips were cold & we never got offered our second course at all. Servers were covering too many tables so hard to get hold of etc. Made multiple song requests to the band which were ignored until you tipped- then played straight away. Brunch stipulated ended at 4, but the bar was open until 5…we were very rudely told to hurry up & leave as they had another event on. Overall would not return.

The Piano Works in Farringdon offers a vibrant dining experience with delicious food options, including some great vegetarian choices, all complemented by an amazing live piano performance that adds to the atmosphere. However, the venue could further broaden its appeal and attract a more diverse customer base by including halal meat steaks on the menu. This addition would cater to a larger audience and enhance the inclusivity of the dining options. Overall, it's a fantastic place for a night out, but with a few tweaks to the menu, it could be even better!

£77 for two New Year’s Eve tickets to celebrate our wedding last week to be farmed into a tiny back bar with two pixelated screen showing the stage and one barman slaving over a queue six deep while every inch of the venue had been covered in cheap white clothed tables where pre-pubescent penguins slurped soupy starters. We’re then told we’d have to wait in the cupboard bar for 90 mins until 9.30pm but by 8.30pm most bow-tied dinner guests were still on starters and there was no chance of a giggle and a dance before the at the earliest. Felt like we’d gate crashed a wedding, Even in the small area we were herded into, staff were flying through with large trays of food. Yet again, greed wins over substance and one of my favourite live music venues has sold its soul to the cash cow that is New Year’s Eve! Couldn’t be more disappointed and won’t ever waste my time again! 👎🏻👎🏻👎🏻👎🏻👎🏻👎🏻

We had a relatively expensive dinner and exactly at the end of the booked timeslot we have been asked to move to a different table which is understandable. The new table was then marked as reserved few minutes laternand asked to leave shortly after seated. So we left and we probably won't return like ever.

14/12/2024 was our booking. Booking was easy £10 deposit per person table booked from 730 till 1030pm Pre ordered our food times confirmed they said don’t be late. We arrived on time and it was very busy as it’s Christmas so I get that. We got seated around 750pm they started serving food around 815 830pm No complaints about food or service very nice young man who was great, however they presented the bill at 910pm we didn’t even get an hour at the table, this really annoyed me so I showed all my emails regarding booking clearly showing 730-1030 apparently they had us down for brunch so that’s less time but we didn’t even get an hour so that’s floored too. I showed all my emails to prove otherwise. So we paid the bill and they moved us to smaller table and there was 6 of us. Lovely girl called Amber said we could have the new smaller table till 1030 then we were asked to move again. Obviously I made a fuss and said this is actually ridiculous now and they made the table even smaller for 2 people so that they could seat the new people arriving. I get it’s Christmas and it does get busy but I’ve never experienced anything like this before not even at Christmas. Fantastic band and a great concept but would I go back or recommend? doubt it, the whole moving us after not even been able to have desert and even having one hour at the table is a no no for me You at least move us to a table for 6 so that we could complete our time and our food. This spoilt our experience there whilst new people started theirs we lost out. Not having the table for the time they agreed is poorly managed. They seemed to blame the booking team makes no sense at all as I booked this months ago and the booking team communicated with me perfectly Very disappointing

Ruined our second Xmas work night in row, this year we booked entry for 8pm and when we arrived they said we could get in but recommended we pop over the road for one drink and come back. When we returned they refused us entry and said we’d have to wait until at least 10pm or later to get in so pre/booking gave us no benefit over walk-ins. What’s the point of booking? What’s the point of following the bouncers recommendations? In past experiences it’s been really fun there and had a good time, but 2x times now this has happened to our staff on Xmas nights out and we certainly will not be trying again. I highly recommend that anyone who wants to go here on a staff/work night out avoids as even if you book tickets you may not get in.

I had to edit this review after our second visit to Piano works. We booked a company Christmas lunch at Piano Works Farringdon and had high expectations, as we’ve been here before, but unfortunately, the experience was quite disappointing. First, we were seated next to the toilets and kitchen, which was not ideal for a festive occasion. The food was also below par—several colleagues ordered steak, and none of them enjoyed it. To make matters worse, despite arriving at 12:30 pm, we were told we had to leave by 2 pm (which was informed before) however, we were served very slowly. When they asked us to leave, we did not finish dessert and the drinks… Overall, this was not the experience we hoped for, and we wouldn’t recommend it for group events.

Tuvimos nuestro evento de Navidad de trabajo aquí anoche y puedo decir que fue absolutamente excepcional. Me gustaría hacer una mención especial a Joanna que era de clase mundial. Ella se presentó al principio y literalmente atendió todas nuestras necesidades. No pasó desapercibido que ella estaba haciendo lo mismo para varias mesas. ¡Un verdadero mérito para el equipo!

We were here this weekend for a Bottomless Brunch and really recommend. The service was excellent, special mention to our waitress, Joanna. Really on top of refills and friendly and polite! The music was great and created such a good atmosphere! WE had a great time and didn't want to leave!

Live music, a fantastic night at Piano works. The service was very good, and staff friendly. I must mention the security staff were great. Food a tad on the average side but think this can be difficult when serving for large groups around Christmas. The band was fabulous. Would recommend.

We wanted to find a music venue and found The Piano Works. As we had arrived after 8pm, it was £15 each to get in. Once inside, drinks were also £15 each although that was for a double measure of spirits. The music was great and the band took and played many song requests. It was a very good atmosphere and would return again.

It's just an awful place to have an Xmas party. Communication with the venue was truly difficult - the worst in all my years of organising events. The staff on the day all seemed like they hated their jobs. The pianists didn't interact with the crowd at all. After food, we were hammed into a tiny area, which was too small for the number of people.

Ambiente, decoración y voces eran brillantes. La comida estaba un poco defraudada, el filete era terrible y medio carnoso. Pero sobre todo me decepcionó el tratamiento de aquellos con problemas de movilidad. Estoy con muletas y hay un ascensor al lado de las escaleras, cuando mi colega le preguntó si podíamos usar el ascensor dijo que solo se usa para transportar ganado. Luego presionó el botón de todos modos y las puertas se abrieron para encontrar el ascensor utilizado como sala de palos estaba lleno de cosas a las que el portero (que era muy amable) nos informó de que no hay muchas escaleras de todos modos. Las escaleras no son un problema para el cuerpo capaz - cualquier escalera es un problema para aquellos que luchan por subir y bajar. También me hubiera gustado que los cantantes estuvieran vestidos bien, parecía que estuvieran vestidos para ir a Tesco. Está bien para una visita, pero no volveré. Ah y también solo se puede elegir un entrante y principal para los dos platos y postres son extra. Usted puede recoger mucho curso que desee, que también es una toma de dinero barato.

Myself and the group found the staff here extremely rude, bar Nathan our waiter who was professional and polite as anything; and the security even worse. If you aren’t of a certain clientele, don’t even bother. The staff made it very clear we weren’t welcome despite our 30+ people booking.

Do not use the free cloakroom unless you want your stuff stolen :)

A couple of branches seem to have closed, but no update on their website or social channels. Quite disrespectful towards their loyal customers who have been using them for years. So disappointed.
