Thirst Bar in City of London, Westminster

Amazing place to be ! The staff is imaculate and professional! Amazing drinks as well ! 🙇‍♂️🙇‍♂️

very nice cocktails and ambience

The only nightclub I go to every time I visit London. This time, I wanted to go on a Monday for the first time, but the rude black security guard at the door wouldn’t let me in, despite me explaining the situation. It was such a disappointment. In the past, there was a helpful Algerian staff member.

I asked for a glass of rose wine, he made white wine instead. when I said you made the wrong drink, someone who appears to be an Arabic or white Indian bartender at downstairs just mixed some soda with it and was claiming that it's a rose wine, and demanding payment for it.

The bouncers are so sound. I would highly recommend Thirst nightclub. They have made my night and the music is so good.

Great music and wide range of cocktails, will definitely be coming here again

You cannot dance with anyone. So, small all the girls are together with the staff

Had the best time tonight at Thirst Bar! Randomly came across this venue in Soho and the security team was so lovely & accommodating from start to finish. Always made sure we were safe inside and while in the smoking area. Although it’s the weekend there is a door fee of 10£ per person, it’s totally worth it! Inside the staff is the most kind & trustworthy. They’re fast, efficient, accommodating & proactive to your favourite taste of cocktails. On top of that, the DJ plays the most nostalgic and heartwarming music all week! I had the best time and will come back without a doubt!!!

I’m still in shock from my experience last saturday. I was the target of a homophobic attack from one of the bouncers at Thirst Bar. I was dancing with a friend when one of the bouncers told me I needed to stop bumping into others on the dance floor. I asked the people around me if this was the case and they all assured me it wasn’t. It was very apparent to me that I was being targeted for my sexuality as a gay man. I turned to the bouncer and asked if he was indeed being homophobic. He stormed over and grabbed me by my arm and neck and proceeded to drag me all the way up the stairs. I tried to protest and say that I would leave of my own accord but he gave me no chance. My girlfriend tried to intervene but was grabbed by the other bouncer. I tried to explain the situation to Thirst Bar’s other workers but it was clear that there was a protocol of protecting their staff. My experience was corroborated by many others who witnessed what had happened. It is deeply shocking that this can happen at all let alone in soho where one would believe that they were particularly safe to express themselves safely and without prejudice. I would encourage people to avoid this establishment and I am hoping I can find a way to get this particular bouncer reprimanded for his clearly homophobic behaviour!

The espresso martinis were amazing. Didn’t plan on getting drunk that Friday night but the espresso martinis were too good to pass up!

Best spot in soho, friendly Door team, professional security and awesome cocktails, 10/10 will recommend to my friends. Thank you

Great one! Are you thirsty? Go there! 😎

The bouncer was asking us for tips in order to let us in !!!

Attentive and courteous staff, good cocktails and good atmosphere.

This is a solid bar to get nice cocktails. They have very good discounts during happy and stupid hour. If you are in the area and want a cozy place in Soho for a nice drink then this is a good option. They offer a wide variety of drinks and cocktails (including non-alcoholic).

Popped in "for one" with a friend at about 7pm, left at 1am. Great cocktail makers who take huge pride in what they do, making classics well.

Franz and Rodrigo were total legends! Made the best caipirinha I’ve had in a long time. Best Long Island in a long time too! 🖤

OMG!!! Second visit here and we love it!! The staff are fabulous, the cocktails are so well priced during stupid and happy hour and unlike most bars in Soho the cocktails aren't watered down, they are strong delicious and get you very merry very quickly. A must place to drink in Soho.

If you're visiting from the US, I would not recommend this venue. There is a high likelihood that you'll be turned away, and if you're black, the chances increase to about 90%. The doorman typically uses the excuse, "We don't allow single entry." It's surprising and disappointing that approximately 90% of the bars in SOHO have a policy of turning men away, with the situation being even worse for people of color. To avoid confusion and disappointment, it would be helpful if these establishments posted a sign or notification stating their policy on single entry. It's disheartening that someone new to the city cannot even enjoy a cocktail or a drink, especially after a long trip, due to these discriminatory practices. The racism prevalent in these policies is truly disheartening.

Ask to use toilet was visiting London I am 13 weeks pregnant so needed to use bathroom, i was told NO! He represented his country well...

£7 Caipirinhas 4pm-6pm in Soho. What's not to like?

Sid was the best security/bouncer, made us feel very welcome and insured we had the best night even when we went in, make sure to ask for SID whenever u come down to thirst to make sure u get taken care of. Best night ever

All was very good and funny. The only negative was the manager, without reasons , keep people wait outside. Bar and security very helpful guys

Thirst Bar Soho bouncer says you can't come in alone and was very respectful about it. Beware solo travelers, not an inclusive place

Good atmosphere on a Saturday evening, packed club. Very efficient staff (cleaning, bar service, etc.)

The Club is nice with good service but The manager is very rude with bad attitude .

I went to the bar feeling quite thirsty. The staff were very polite and chatty. While we were having drinks on the dance floor, we decided to step outside for some air. Suddenly, a random guy approached and attacked us. Fortunately, the security guy at the bar reacted quickly and protected us from harm. The drinks were £10 each, which is reasonable for a bar in Soho. Overall, it was a great experience, and I look forward to going again over the weekend.

I’d leave 0 stars of if I could - my partner was asked “how many pussies” he was bringing. Disgusting attitude, would not recommend if you respect females.

Amazing venue Great staff, Sid really made our night Could not recommend them more We had the best night Make sure you go to Thirst

Fun atmosphere, drinks were great and snacks tasty.

Free entry. Friendly atmosphere.

Very busy place with rude door staff. Cocktails not too bad, service was very quick.

More ice in the cocktail than anything else

Great attention to detail on the cocktails! And great people watching

Lovely cocktail and great service

The owner, who is a balding guy with glasses, abused one of my friends on the way out and dragged them out the club for no reason. This was recorded and a video will be circulated shortly.

Loved it! It was great 💘 My friend from childhood who lives in USA came to visit London for few days! We went there and it was brilliant! Great music and the girls at the bar were soo professional and lovely! Defo want to go back as I live in Nottingham I will do when I can

Great Place to be with friends! Gets a bit too crowded after 11PM and the Security folks are rude and unreasonable

Small bar for cocktails, good music

Rating 2 because it is still a nice place in the center. The location and security are good but it costs 10 pounds just to enter. We tried an offer of 5 shots for £20 but they were practically all water. As for the cocktails, I tried a long island which cost 12 pounds but was also very light. 5 pound tequila shot, good music. The environment is divided into two floors: above there is a bar where you can chat, while below there is a club/disco with a bar corner. The cloakroom costs £3. I recommend going with friends, expensive, I wouldn't go back.

Went here for the stupid hour for drinks with friends and it really was great to have freshly made cocktails for good prices, especially in that location. The staff were also very accommodating and attentive.

I was looking for a nice place to sit and have a cocktail and from the description it looked great. Tried to go in and was denied entry because I was alone.

Best DJ in London, I recommend for a simple bar night out and good fun music!

Drinks were goood, barkeepers too, dj also... but the boss thinks his a god... it would be a 5/5 but through his attitude of the boss just a two... nice bar... nice music.. we spent a lot there but of the childish behavior of the boss... earns just a two...

Another great night at Thirst :) Mainly attend Thursday Night Friendly welcoming Door security Smiley & on the ball Bar team are awesome too Drinks: very fair price & tasty cocktails Dancefloor: Attracts Dancers — Great Music too :) From: older & wiser

Ironically not good if you're thirsty - took ages to get a drink here. Pictures look great online but realistically it's a small average bar with little to no seating available. Much better alternatives nearby. They do tap beer though so that's a big plus.

Thirst bar isn’t worth of the hype. We found the bar from the TikTok app. It was very small and bad. The drinks wasn’t good and they were expensive. They threw me out when my friend was throwing up and they blame me for that and throw me out when my friend was alone. They didn’ believe me when I tried to explain when we my friend was in danger. Luckily nice and beautiful girls saved me and told the truth.

Muskan is the best server we’ve ever had, bar David (mind the pun), she’s absolutely lovely and so accommodating and friendly, she always makes us feel welcome in Thirst, 100% recommend

It was fun. Had a great time with my girlfriend. Sid also took great care of us and made our experience memorable for life.

In my opinion best late night bar in London. And the security guard Sid is doing a phenomenal job.

Sid is amazing he got lit with us and he has the best customer service!!!💕💕 he made me and my boyfriends time amazing

Amazing little cocktail bar and club. Really great menu with knowledgeable bartenders (with even better happy hour deals!). I love that you can dance your heart out downstairs and come up for a little breather on the ground floor, while still maintaining a fun atmosphere. Some of the best DJs in Soho come through -- always creating the best vibes. This place never fails to deliver a great night

Met by friendly Door Gents, Enter into Amazing Sexy Venue, Delicious Cocktails, very reasonably priced.. went with my girlfriends & we all enjoyed the DJ & vibes, danced til closing time, plan another visit next week..thank you Thirst ..xx Talia Boo x

Very basic music, expensive entry ticket compared to the level of fun you get. Very normal drinks. And also my jacket was stolen there because their cloak room was full and they weren’t accepting any more jackets. The management behaved towards this situation as if he couldn’t care less about the customer’s satisfaction. So not worth it. There are much better bars in soho.

Went around 9pm on a Wednesday so wasn't our for a mad one. It was a nice vibe in there (upstairs) at that time of night with dim lighting. Loud pumpy music though, depends if it's to your taste. Happy hour saves you a couple of pounds per cocktail - we only stayed for 1. I've noticed the bar only responds to positive reviews which is quite concerning as some people are clearly having a poor experience.

I would not recommend this bar at all !!! The bouncers were looking for a reason to kick my group of friends out whilst I was trying to celebrate my birthday !! Reasons included ‘being too loud’ and ‘stepping on people’s feet’ (on the dance floor!!) and ‘taking too long in the toilet’ ?!?! Had an awful time here which ended with one of the bouncers attempting to physically assault one of my friends. Don’t go !!!

The bar offers an extensive selection of drinks, including a wide range of cocktails, premium spirits, craft beers, and fine wines. Whether you're a cocktail enthusiast or someone who appreciates a good glass of wine, Thirst Bar has something to satisfy every palate.

Amazing, hospitable and caring bar staff with a very well rounded on knowledge on drinks and what to recommend to inexperienced customers such as myself - big shoutout to the entire thirst team for always bringing the best vibes and energy in soho ! + Lovely security that are always helpful when needed !!

Extremely RUDE and UNEDUCATED staff!!! Go there if you want to ruin your night!! We had the worst club experience in London. In the middle of the night, staff started to kick people out! We were shocked and that was so unprofessional to push people outside! I cannot believe they feel like they have the right to do that!!

Lovely looking place, great vibe. Only self-service. We came to sit down and all bar personnel were on their phone for 10 minutes, so we had to order at the bar. They were out of some tap beers, so had to pay £6 for a small bottle.

Unfortunately the most unfriendly door staffs I have ever encountered in soho. I was there to meet friends who were already inside, my friends were downstairs, theres no reception downstairs so I can’t call them up to come get me. They won’t let me in to look for them because they have a no single entry policy. I had a cap on which they tole me to take it off. Worst experience ever.

Small setup for clubbing downstairs. It is only comfortable if it is not too crowded. However, a great choice of music on Saturday nights. The staff members are quite helpful. Prompt security to avoid nuisance. The cloak room manager was very polite and helpful (Though £3 for a jacket is too pricey imo). The bartender who works the night shift on Saturday steals the show with his great skills.

I booked a table for 10 at 5pm on Saturday, when we came in there was no table reserved for us so we had to go downstairs, which had the LOUDEST music, and it got even louder everything we blocked our ears. Drinks were okay, but more annoyed about the table. If tables aren’t reserved for large groups, then why bother putting that on your website ? We left after just one drink - it was 5pm, not 2am in a rave for crying out loud

Nice ambience for Saturday night drinks. Gets busy but not overwhelmingly so. Worth visiting. We only had drinks so can't rate the food.

Arrived at 4.15 pm the music was far too loud people were struggling to speak to the person beside them. The cocktails we had were expensive, weak and unimpressive.

I would like to give a feedback on NYE. When we came to the venue, we were re-directed downstairs to the club area and the tables had the reservations on them, while it was clear after a while sitting there, nobody reserved them. I went to the bar to query about it as we didn't have an option to reserve a table with the tickets. I was told it will be £200 per table reservation, so I politely declined. Once the DJ started, the tables were pulled away by the security. It would have been infuriating to pay that amount of money for a dingiest tables, only to have them pulled away. I would have to argue my way to the refund. We weren't the only ones in this situation. I see this as a shameless money grabbing tactics from the bar manager and customers should be aware. To say it was NYE is not an excuse. Paying this money for a table should come with a return value. Personally, the photos of the club published online are exaggerated. The venue downstairs is small and underwhelming.

Went to celebrate my birthday. Pre-booked, pre-paid weeks in advance. Showed up. No table service. Bartenders took forever. Front door didn’t care. Downstairs the music was mediocre. Left early and had a blast at Club SoHo 49. Spent lots of money. This bar is exactly what its name says: Thirst. Left me wanting more.

Absolutely the worst bar ever in London. Their staff is really uneducated, rude, unprofessional…they think they are super power at the place I guess… avoid if you have a choice

Very small but good vibes. Music was great on Friday night.

Pretty good place for an early cocktail. Get there early enough eg 5 pm for happy hour prices.

Staff weren't particularly welcoming, the venue is too dark to read the menu, and the music too loud to hear the person next to you talking.

Great vibes at this bar! Great place to meet friends where you can have a lovely conversation and enjoy the music. The atmosphere was calm and the staff were friendly. Depending on the hour you visit the bar, drinks are cheaper at the happy hour. Definitely one of our favourite bars in SoHo London. The bar is not huge, but the atmosphere and the prices are amazing. There have not only a happy our but also 'stupid hour. The place is in 2 floors building and have einogth space for big companies. I tried some rum cocktails.

Perfect place for after-work drinks - great cocktails and very friendly customer service!

Good, modern and clean facilities. Lovely neat dancefloor with bar both top and in the basement. Good crowd, great DJ, highly recommend.

Classy bar in the heart of Soho! Great music, beautiful cocktails, lovely crowd, and the bar staff & security made my friends and I feel really welcome

Bartenders and the doorman were amazing. And the drinks were phenomenal.

"No single entries" apparently. I couldn't go in there to wait for my friends.

Your bounces need to understand they are not guarding a nuclear compound. I wished I could rate you zero. If you don’t let people in, you won’t have clientele.

I've been here twice, both on Friday nights. The space is lovely and so are the staff. Drinks are reasonably priced for central London, however, the music was very off on my second visit. The first time, the DJ played great R&B/HipHop/Mainstream music and it was great, had everyone dancing all night and attracted a great crowd. However, this time the music was very unusual, some remixes no one really knew or could dance to. Hope the previous DJ comes back, I believe his name was BR4D. Update: The first time I went was Friday 19th May 2023, that's when the good DJ was playing. Most recently I went on Friday 11th of August 2023, and the not so great DJ was playing. My friends also visited a couple weeks ago while the second DJ was playing and didn't enjoy it.

Nice bar with good music. No food unfortunately but they were happy to let us bring from outside as long as we made sure to clean it up. Good drinks and priced reasonable too

Friendly staff, good amount of drinks available and bargain happy hours 🥰 I loved the system of three different price ranges depending on what time you’re coming

Nice staff and well decorated. But the music is just SO LOUD. It would be a great place for a date if you could hear your date. Cocktails were nice- had the Martini - very small cocktails though!

Staff very helpful. And kind and talkative perfect place to get into good spirits. Bar staff are Aries/Cancer and Libra! If that makes a difference 😉

Had a great time last Saturday and definitely going back. Good music, nice vibe, great crowd

Great little bar down stairs nice staff

I had my 21st birthday at Thirst bar last night and needless to say I was not disappointed. The staff was so kind, everyone was so friendly and accommodating. Sid the manager made sure I had the best night. The bouncer and dj were really lovely, I felt safe and cared for. The drinks tasted great and were well made. Will definitely be back.

This is how my Negroni was made. It was disgusting. I had to change it. I feel there's a few cocktails they need training on how to make

Great vibeee, loved the staff. Very friendly and welcoming. I recommend 10/10 ❤️❤️

Excellent Thirst. If you don't know what you want, I highly suggest asking your server to surprise you - they'll ask you some basics about your preferences and then bring you an amazing drink! Personally, I was served by Rodrigo and I only have good things to say!

Always a great spot to impress dates and have a good time with amazing cocktails! Be sure to come early on Friday and Saturday to avoid long wait!

Fantastic bar. Personable and knowledgeable bartenders, unique and amazing drinks. We couldn’t have had a better time.

Great drinks with nice music. Little too loud for personal taste but still had a good time!

Thirst has an amazing range of cocktails and music. Found this place while we were on holiday and the manager, Miri was very friendly, made us feel like home!

This is a unique cocktail bar that has become one of the most famous in the city. The cocktails are all phenomenal. Definitely try to stop in, it’s worth it.

Loved the vibe and the atmosphere, one of the best!!

Personally, I liked the way the staff took care of us and made our evening worth a while ❤️

I think I’ve had all of my best times here. No celebration is complete without me going to this place. much love for all the staff, especially Hiarytsa and Franz💛

A nice place to go for some good drinks and a chill ambiance! Definitely recommend :)

One of the best places I’ve been to in a long time. This is my new go-to place from now on🫶🏻

Literally the most welcoming place ever. The whole menu is amazing. I definitely recommend you to try cocktail of the week!
