Venn Street Records in Lambeth

Sentado fuera en las mesas calentadas y en realidad no sentía frío! Aprecio cuando en algún lugar tiene buenos calentadores! Las bebidas eran geniales, asegúrese de venir antes de las 8 pm para obtener 2 por 1 cócteles. No entramos - parecía muy lleno, pero llegar temprano para conseguir una mesa al aire libre y usted será grande.

Fui aquí con mi amigo para estas copas de cumpleaños. Nos dieron una oportunidad gratis, pero más tarde nos preguntaron si realmente era su cumpleaños en el que dijimos que no, estamos fuera celebrando su cumpleaños de hace 2 días - le mostramos una identificación válida. El personal del bar, cuyo cumpleaños fue el 5 de agosto también con el pelo pelirrojo creo que fue muy agresivo. Nos ofrecimos a pagar por el disparo al que dijo que no, puso sus manos sobre mi amigo y le dijo que se fuera y nunca volviera. Nunca he estado en un bar, especialmente en el sur de Londres que estaba cerca de esto en términos de hostilidad, pero por favor, gaste su dinero en otro lugar.

Fue gritada agresivamente por tomar el giro equivocado desde el baño por el gerente, ella era muy física; trató de arrastrar a mis amigos y a mí desde el área principal del bar para echarnos, ella tiró de pelos a mis amigos en el proceso, el portero le aconsejó que había hecho esto antes. Honestamente, gaste su dinero en otro lugar, nunca me había sentido tan víctima.

Great atmosphere for drinks in Clapham. We had a great host in Nico, who delivered excellent service - fun and quick to bring out drinks & food.

Nico absolute legend !!! lovey service and great drinks ! Also unreal atmosphere on a bustling street in London ! Thanks all Xx

The barman and bouncer kicked our table out at 11pm last night as one of our friends started dancing on the chair. Instead of politely asking us to leave, the barman (long hair male) went psycho, shouting at us all and bouncer grabbed my bottle of beer out of my hand and refused to let go. Never ever again will I set foot in that place. Disgusting way to treat customers and the bouncer dangerously escalated a situation unnecessarily. So aggressive. Was obviously a good excuse to clear out people as it was overcrowded but there’s a way to treat customers and they handled it terribly.

Your bouncers were letting people in without ID last Saturday night. They asked for ID to the group in front of us and still let them in when they didn't have it.

I will never again set foot in this place with 20 other people with me. We booked a space for leaving drinks and were having a nice time. Most of us have had 3/4 drinks by 11pm when the bar manager started shouting at everyone that she will serve no more drinks to us because we drank all her Campari?! I mean, upswell something else then? She threw out 20 people because the staff including her was incapable of handling the situation. All of the people she threw out and THREATENED WITH POLICE work in hospitality and know how stressful it can be but there is no excuse for the incompetence or behaviour.

The bar is busy, and overcrowded. Fine — it’s popular. However, there’s no excuse for the rudest barman ever, Josh. When I placed my first order, he questioned it, like I was putting him out, and when I placed the second order and hour or so later, he looked at me like I was dirt on his shoe, and said, “Say please!” Excuse me… firstly, I did, he just didn’t hear it. Secondly, don’t lecture me about manners! How dare you! A different member of staff also shouted at us and got very confrontational, just because we asked him not to speak to us like we were children. Rude, complacent, arrogant… I would never go back to this bar if you paid me, purely because of the rudeness of the bar staff, specifically Josh (talk guy with a thin beard). Reading other reviews, I’m obviously not the only person he’s spoken to like that, so the bar manager obviously doesn’t care. So many other good bars in Clapham — go there instead.

Hello, I genuinely hope this is some helpful feedback because I really liked coming to Venn St Records. If covid didn't hit I would have had my birthday party there! Last night (29/07/22), I have never experienced such rude and unfriendly staff anywhere I ever gone out. Also, I have never written a complaint about any business ever, but I felt I had to give you some feedback because I like the place and the experience could be 1000x better. The issues were: 1. The guy looking after the outside area in the waistcoat at 9:40 was telling people to go inside. When I asked why he said that at 10:30 the outside area closes!? He didn't just say this once but every 10 minutes or so for the next hour. And every time it was like we were just really putting him out. 2. The door people have this absurd airlock system. Go in one door, wait in the middle part for the next door to be opened. The guy manning the second door said "quick quick" like I was the one slowing it down. Also, when a girl wanted to push past my friends and I, that however was no problem?? 3. The INCREDIBLY rude barman. He took the drink orders from any women around me until there was no one left to serve and I had been waiting ages and then was looking past me hoping someone else would come until he reluctantly served me. It was loud so I said loudly "a meantime", he very seriously said "what's the magic word?" he said this several times until I understood that he was annoyed I didn't say "please". How incredibly petty!! He was a bigger guy with a beard. I left.

Not only was this the worse mojito in the world ( and I have had a few) when I went to give feedback the surly bar manager was not only rude and shouted over me but did not have any understanding of customer service and considered feedback to be obnoxious. She repeatedly told me how hard they had been working the garden area as of that was an excuse for serving appalling drinks. They obviously do not understand that a mojito is supposed to be a relative sweet drink. Btw their coffee martini was not much cop either I hear. I advise you to give it a big miss and as I was repeatedly told by the bar staff go yo one of the other cocktail bars in the area.

It was amazing been there and I new a bartender that had the same name as me and he told me one day he would be back there before he would stop bartending he’s was the best from a 0 to top level incredible hope to see you there soon one day he’s name was Sergio 5stars thank you for having me

Honestly you will struggle to find a more positive, helpful and likeable server than Scott. He made our night so memorable and we left wanting to come back every Friday. Thank you Scott! Jess & Lauren

I went here with a big group of friends to celebrate my birthday and had a great time. This is the second time I’ve been to Venn St Records and it did not disappoint. There is a good atmosphere. The staff provide good service and the live music was great. Everyone had a great time. Great that they had a happy hour and even served pizza. Would definitely visit again.

I received terrible service by the manager on the door, after leaving for a brief period of time and then wanting to rejoin my friends inside. I asked how long it would take for my friend and I to be able to enter, and she threatened to bar me even though I am not from the area and told me I had been rude when I only wanted to know the wait time. My friends and I ended up leaving after this. Will not be visiting again.

Scott was fantastic. Really made my night. Molly was alright too, hopefully one day she will be just as good as Scott. What a legend

Being local to the area I often visit Venn street records with friends and it has been a frequent hangout of ours. However recently the attitude and customer service of late has been appalling, the hospitality sector has suffered massively as a result of the pandemic so it’s such a shame for the owners to be let down by the rudeness of their staff. Unfortunately I won’t be returning after being made to feel so unwelcome each time of my recent visits!

I booked a table for my friends and I where we sat outside which was nice as the weather has been great. We were then able to go inside as requested where other people tried to join our table & use our drinks tab that we had open. We notified many staff members that we were not with them and do not know them and not to add their drinks to our tab. The drinks were still added to our tab. We a good bit left earlier than closing time and paid the bill. I received a phone call from the manager threatening to call the police on us for not paying, which woke me up as it was nearly 2AM. I called my friend who’s card the tab was on and he went back out and returned to the bar to sort out the matter and the staff added about £50 to the bill on return. The staff also thought that offering my friend a ‘free shot’ as a peace offering was the right thing to do? This was handled so poorly and on that basis none of us will not be returning unfortunately

I've been yesterday with my friends for couple of drinks and I had so much fun. Grace was delightful, she took care of us and was so funny. I will definitely come back and I hope Grace will be serving us again.

Upon arrival we were welcomed by the friendly staff. Especially Grace, who gave a professional service that was just superb! Cocktails were varied & delicious, the place is really nice and has very good environment inside and out. Thank you again Grace for going the extra mile for us!! I will definitely come back soon!!❤

We had a great time for a friend's birthday, and Grace was brilliant. Drinks were fast and pizzas are good. Very good value for food and drinks. Only downside - I was charged for an extra pizza and there is no way to contact. Tried to call, was diverted to email - never responded to me. Looking forward to live music as I am a fan of Northcote Records.

Writing this while still waiting for my drinks for an hour now. After a very long time waiting to be taken our order, the waitress came over to take payment while drinks are nowhere to be seen. Will make this my last visit.

Drinks took hours to come like you end up sober, staff act busy when they are just sat down at the bar

Great buzz and amazing atmosphere. Came with a large party and they all loved it. Big shout out to Steve the waiter who was extremely helpful even with such a complicated bill. Would return.

We went for drinks in a group of 6 and Amy was amazingggggg as a Waitress!! Couldn’t fault her. Everyone so attentive and helpful! Will definitely be back xxxx

Service was very good. Specially our waitress sorry don't remember her name. Cocktails vwere very nice as usual. It was lovely to have live music back.

Really enjoyed my drinks and food here with friends. Had the four cheese pizza, delish! Quick service and super helpful. Wanted mayonaise but they didnt have any so Luigi went next store and got me some. Now that is service!! Will be back!

Así que reservé este bar porque sé que es realmente bueno y el ambiente es genial. Sin embargo, mis amigos vinieron de Leicester esperando una buena noche. Reservamos a las 8 (reservamos 2 semanas antes), nos sentamos a las 8:40, sin embargo, esto fue en una mesa exterior mientras todavía estaban "preparando nuestra mesa". Finalmente llegaron a las 9 pm cuando nos sentamos adentro. Nos sentamos en una pequeña mesa donde todos estábamos aplastados, nos dimos cuenta de que habían olvidado nuestra reserva. Pedimos dos botellas de vino y un cóctel, el vino llegó 10 minutos después con tres copas, al parecer se habían “quedado sin copas”. A las 9:20 nos dieron dos vasos más, bebimos 20 minutos más y luego nos pidieron que nos fuéramos. He sido un cliente de la calle Venn durante años y me encanta ir a tomar una copa aquí, esta noche nunca me he sentido menos personal de cara al cliente en mi vida. Fueron groseros, no se disculparon y no les importó que perdiéramos una hora y media de nuestro tiempo de beber del fin de semana por sus errores sin disculpas.

Pasé una encantadora noche de sábado con amigos; originalmente reservé una mesa para 6, pero vinieron más amigos de lo esperado, por lo que el gerente general del bar. de los gorilas fue menos amable, ya que trató de evitar que mi grupo de amigos entrara, incluso cuando le dije repetidamente que el gerente general había aceptado este arreglo. Me preguntó agresivamente quién lo permitió e insistió en que hablara con el gerente general cara a cara frente a él para obtener confirmación. Esto se hizo de manera tan agresiva y no sentí que esa acción estuviera justificada en absoluto. Aparte de ese desafortunado incidente, mis amigos y yo pasamos una noche agradable y esperamos volver para otro fin de semana, con suerte con un portero menos agresivo que no gritará en mi cara la próxima vez. También un saludo masivo al Gerente General del bar por ser tan amable y servicial, ¡hizo mi noche! !

Voy a este lugar y a su sucursal de Northcote Rd con bastante frecuencia, pero el servicio aquí ha ido bajando lentamente.Ayer, tuvimos que saludar y dejar nuestro asiento dos veces para recibir servicio (solo unas pocas mesas estaban afuera). El camarero estaba muy molesto y cuando le pregunté si estaba bien, respondió: ¡Estoy cansado!Pedimos 2 pizzas y solo obtuvimos 1, pero afortunadamente el gerente lo rectificó.Luego esperamos 20 minutos por una botella de vino y cuando llegó a la mesa, nos dijeron que teníamos 15 minutos para terminarla ya que las mesas habrían sido retiradas. ¡Iremos a Northcote Record la próxima vez!

Accidentally bought drinks at the picture house and asked for one of their benches to be cleaned as they were wet. Met with major attitude, and instead of saying ‘sorry you are in the wrong bar area’ we were grunted with ‘those are not our glasses’! He then went into the bar and got a manager to aggressively say ‘those are not our glasses you got those from next door, you can’t sit here’.It made me and my friends feel embarrassed as people began to look! Won’t be recommending this place at all, and the blonde male employer i sensed did not want to wipe tables for ‘people of colour’. It could have been done in a nicer way! Highly disappointed! Clapham sucks since being gentrified!

Fui aquí para tomar unas bebidas de cumpleaños y fue genial. Podíamos alquilar la zona gratis y había happy hour hasta las 8 de un sábado. El personal era amable y teníamos un espacio de tamaño decente. La música es buena y tiene un gran ambiente para un sábado por la noche.

A friend and I came in for pizza and the happy hour 2-4-1 cocktails on a Friday night. The food and service were great and there's a wide choice of cocktails to choose from compared to other happy hours! We will definitely be back again!

Arrived around 9pm it was so packed that there was barely any room to move, pictures on the website make it look much bigger than it is and with more seating. Door staff were manhandling everyone in and out of the venue. We stayed for less than 30 mins, paid way too much for a couple of drinks and were manhandled out of the venue as we didn't move fast enough through the crowd. Least pleasant bar experience I've ever had, had a better (cheaper) time in the O'Neill's round the corner.

Terrible customer service . The Italian manager Luigi, was rude, aggressive and so unprofessional! it s a shame because the pub is nice ... the managment it s aweful!

Fuimos anoche y fueron 2 deliciosas pizzas y 2 cócteles por solo 19. También 2 por 1 en otros cócteles También había buena música en vivo. Sin duda recomiendo este lugar. Tal vez el fin de semana estaba muy ocupado. Sin embargo, entre semana está bien y obtendrás un asiento. Muy recomendable

See title! Far too many people there which led to a lot of pushing and no one really enjoying themselves. Plus plastic straws. Get with the times guys.

Last night I was just having a great night with my fiance. I went to use the toilets and had only been there for a minute. Someone started banging on the door and I basically said let me be I've only been here a minute. I could then hear a woman saying "do you know who you're speaking to, this is the general manager". When I came out she has brought security down to the toilets who wouldn't even let me wash my hands. I insisted that I did of course. Then he said I need to leave the building. I was very confused. My stuff was still inside the club and my fiance was still inside so I was trying to just get my stuff. He literally grabbed me up including my chest and literally threw me out of the place. The most disgusting behaviour I have ever experienced in my life. This has never ever happened to me before.I have no idea why and I can only put this down to racism, as I recall my fiance and I being the only Asians in the place. General manager's abusing their power to look "cool" in front of their colleagues, and security using any excuse to grope women. Absolutely disgusting and makes me sick. I will be reporting this to the police.

Potentially one of the worst bars I’ve visited in my life. Overcrowded sardine box! Staff accused us of “groping women” and “stealing phones” which was absurd. When we asked them to substantiate claim they couldn’t and called us aggressive!

Overcrowded, watery beer, staff who accuse you of sexual assault in front of your friends, then make up excuses for why it isn't technically possible to view the camera footage, then accuse your other friends of stealing phones, then accuse you of being drunk, then claim they are not paid enough to argue with you.

Tuve una de las peores experiencias que he tenido en un bar en Venn street Records.Me robaron el iphone y la billetera de mi bolso mientras estaba dentro de la barra por otro cliente. El personal del bar y los gorilas no ofrecieron ninguna ayuda o preocupación cuando se les notificó.Además, mientras utilizaba las instalaciones del baño, el encargado del baño me acusó de tomar drogas en el cubículo del inodoro. Ella insistió en buscar mi bolso y mi cuerpo en el medio del baño de damas, a pesar de que había estado en el cubículo por 1 minuto máximo. Después de buscarme y no encontrar nada, la asistente del baño o su gerente no me ofrecieron ninguna disculpa.Clapham ofrece una gran cantidad de otros bares muy superiores, con una clientela mucho mejor.No vayas aqui

2 x pizzas y 2 x cócteles en un domingo por la noche para 19? ! Absolutamente brillante. El servicio era amable pero no intrusivo, y la ubicación es genial. Nos sentamos bajo las luces de las hadas y disfrutamos de lo último del sol del domingo.

A good night out with a very busy bar. Friendly bar staff and a good vibe and great clientele inside. Friendly Door Staff. Good Night out. Could do with some special offers now and again, but otherwise a good joint.

Nunca me he encontrado dos empleados del bar más miserable de toda mi vida, incluso cuando me lo comentaron que empezábamos a agresiva. Siguiente uno de nuestros amigos se resbaló en el suelo y luego se negó a servir el resto de nuestro grupo toda la noche. Por lo que a mí respecta, es enormemente detrás de todos los desfases de otros bares de Clapham y eso es ser educados.

Cuando llegué a Venn Street Records, el área reservada estaba ocupada por otros, lo cual estaba bien. Sin embargo, tuve que hacer cola para que alguien del bar viniera a ayudar y no se molestaron en limpiar las mesas empapadas con bebidas derramadas. La tarjeta que tenía mi nombre y reservada estaba empapada y no estaba claro si el área estaba reservada, así que tuvimos que mantener a la gente a flote. Disfruté del bar, pero pensé que era ridículo no poder conseguir una jarra de agua del grifo y en su lugar tuve que hacer cola durante veinte minutos cada vez por un vaso. No me pareció que el personal, aparte de los porteros que eran geniales, fuera particularmente amable y servicial, y pasamos la mayor parte de la noche haciendo cola.

Recientemente descubrí los registros de las calles de Venn en Design My Night, donde tuvieron una excelente oferta para dos pizzas y dos bebidas por 19 libras. Un pequeño gran montaje y bastante espacioso. Reservamos una mesa que agradecimos ya que incluso el miércoles por la noche estaba muy ocupado. Sin darse cuenta, también fue una noche de micrófono abierto, que fue realmente genial además de la noche. El personal era amable pero un poco lento para servir. Las pizzas y cócteles fueron geniales. ¡Vale cada centavo!

Went here for a cocktail last evening. Great atmosphere. There aren't many tables, we ended up sitting outside. 2-4-1 cocktails are from 5pm-8pm, making them good value.

Decidió celebrar la reunión para mi cumpleaños en este lugar antes de irnos a otro. Intentamos tomar lo que entendió de la lista cocktial, pero nos dijeron que había un orden diferente, así que tuvimos que cambiar de opinión. llevamos . . . Nosotros lo hicimos y resultó que era justo. . No es un buen comienzo.

Mi hermana y yo estuvimos viendo su tranced, si esta revisión fue basado en su me gustaría por supuesto doy 5. La otra camarera no así, pedí un mojito y margarita, sin embargo, en vez de la margarita nos dieron una corona, cuando corrigió el orden que ella no parecía muy feliz. Las contradicciones de la escala dos con estas camareras bar! Gerente por favor, tome nota de lo increíble que es, Hayley podría haber pasado toda la noche viendo su trabajo!

Pedí 3 cócteles, el camarero empezó a mezclar las bebidas en 3 agitadores. Curiosamente, entonces ella empezaron a inundar las bebidas en cuatro vasos. Cuando yo le pregunté por qué dijo que era para ella (no había ofrecido una bebida). Ella también era de vidrio lleno hasta el borde mientras que los otros 3 donde solo lleno a mitad de camino. Cuando yo le pregunté por qué ella era mezclar 4 bebidas en 3 agitadores se puso muy agresivo. Caro y no vale la pena molestarse con personal que son sólo para embriagarse en los propietarios 'ganancias.

Así que he ido a este lugar unas cuantas veces (sólo para las bebidas), pero han sido bastante feliz aquí cada vez que he estado. La desventaja es que siempre estaba lleno y hay bastantes lugares para sentarse, así limitado que generalmente se terminan siendo bastante parado nada grave. Si va a tomar la música en vivo las cosas en este lugar es bastante refrescante! Siempre hace una noche estupenda.

We only come every now and then as it just seems the other side of the world for us but the best night. SuperSpokes are just amazing, such fabulous entertainment on a Thursday night!!!! It's a special occasion for us to always a bottle of prosseco and rose wine for us!!!

Todo el personal era fantástico y servicial, nos ayudaron a que el cumpleaños de mi novia. Mi única queja era la zona que nos dieron (cerca del bar) era demasiado pequeña para 12 personas y tenía asientos muy finas semejantes a una parada de autobús que no estaban muy bien para estar en una excelente noche, de lo contrario.

De Venn Street es el lugar para ir a Clapham Common si buscas una bebida refrescante y desean evitar un antro lúgubre como tantos otros bares de la zona. Usualmente hay una buena mezcla de gente aquí, pero puede estar muy concurrido a veces. Llegar...

2 x Aperol Spritz £19 - shockingly expensive! To sit and drink them on benches outside so close together you literally have to clamber over the person beside you to gain a seat! It's a mediocre bar in a grungy old street in clapham - not a swanky cocktail place in the city with a rooftop view! Shame one you! Avoid - better places to drink.

We love venn st, call in all the time billy eliza and crew always take great care of us. always a pleasure to see them behind the bar. connor will be missed but wishing him the best in old st. love the 241 before 8pm.

Reserved an area for 8pm on a Saturday night and table service was great. Only thing is on the website it said there was going to be a live band on from 10pm, but there wasn't just the dj, who was great but just confusing as said something different online. Most expensive bottle of prosecco I've ever bought @ £35! My advice get there pre-8pm for 241 cocktails.Love this venue though as it's cosy and always a good crowd!

A great night with live music, awesome little crowd and some really cool tenders to look after us. Would love to go digging through all the Vinyl on the shelves...

2 massive pizzas and 2 cocktails for £15.Good music, decent food and drink and a great price!What's not to love?

Although venn street seems cool enough, this place just jumps on the bandwagonNothing much to offer and overpriced You can do far better !

Went there on a night where they played live music - very cool vibe progressively developingshame the drinks are a bit expensive but still a great bar in Clapham

On walking in I loved the tunes being played and was pleasantly surprised at how cool a place it was. Settled down and ordered some happy hour cocktails two for one. I was disappointed with the cocktails though as I couldn't taste any alcohol and suspect they were just very weak excuses for cocktails.

I have visited here a few times for drinks, but on my last visit, they had an offer on (think it is Sun-Weds). £15 for 2 cocktails and 2 pizzas. They also have a 241 happy hour 5-8, I believe each day too!There cocktails are some of the best in clapham and the pizzas were as good!Will continue to make Venn Street records a venue of choice!

I like to come here before a restaurant in Clapham, to have a cocktails. Cocktails are good and there is an happy hour until 8pm which is nice, 2 for 1.Staff is nice, and are flexible if you want to change something in the cocktails.The place is not to crowded and there are outdoor spaces for summer.

We dropped in for 3 rounds of 2 for 1 cocktails. Some really good flavours and of course, for £8.90 for 2, you can't go wrong. I'm defo returning for the pizza. The music kept cutting out for about 20 mins when we were there, I suspect it was because their internet was cutting out. Here's a tip, play some offline content, perhaps some "records"? There's enough of them there! I've been here on a busy friday night and it's not quite as good value, but for a midweek evening before a local dinner, it was ideal loosener! Staff seem nice.

Drinks were ok but staff seemed to be more interested in making the place look cool and edgy. Staff were also rude. Particularly the doormen, they made us stand outside in the rain for no apparent reason. First they let us wait 10 minutes whilst we were getting soaked, then a privileged 5 people were let in, then 3 of our group and so forth until all 10 of us were in. It was the same ordeal when leaving. I missed my bus because a doorman said "I cannot let you leave until someone else comes in". We can only assume this is to give the appearance of people cueing outside akin to those seedy nightclubs all in a row on a high street. A place so desperate for attention surely shows you something isn't right.

I like Venn Street Records - it's got a different vibe to the more 'commercial' bars on Clapham High Street. They've got a good range of cocktails (althought slightly pricey) and I like that they've always got a live band on. It's always good fun, staff are friendly - even the bouncers!

Love this place for its incredibly priced BOGOF cocktail and Pizza offer. The pizzas are ok and the drinks decent but the staff are pretty inattentive/useless. First they served up the wrong pizza (to a vegetarian) then charged the whole meal to someone else's credit card! Bit more care next time guys...

Stopped by here with friends for some reduced price drinks and pizza and really enjoyed it. It's a really cool spot with a funky decor and vibe. Staff were friendly and our food and drinks came quite quickly. Will definitely be back!

I recently went to Venn Street with a friend on a Friday night. We arrived at 11pm and it was completely packed. The security is really strict and awkward, with a weird double door procedure where you have to wait until someone in Venn Street comes out. The club itself was completely packed and there was no way anyone could move. No one was dancing, which is misleading by the loud music you can hear from the outside.. I wouldn't come back on a busy night like Friday or Saturday but could be quite nice when quieter..

The bar staff were really friendly and professional but unfortunately the security staff of which there were loads for such a small venue were terribly rude and intimidating. We started our night outside and rather abruptly ushered inside aggressively, when we popped outside we were shouted at as only 5 people could smoke at one time and if you finished just before a friend you were shouted at again to get inside, the vibe was hostile and completely unnecessary. As the night ended we popped to the ladies and again we had bouncers banging on the door telling us to hurry up. They ruined our experience and I won't be going back.

Venn's record is a small bar near clapham common underground station, we were looking for a cheap deal for diner, was not disappointed. 10" pizza for 4£ on Tuesday night and they also offers the cheap date specials (2 pizzas and 2 drinks for 15£). Not the biggest choice of food (just pizza and 5 choices of topping). Not worth the detour but if you're near it's a good place

On Tuesday's and Wednesday's Venn Street Blues does a 2-4-1 cocktail and pizza deal which always makes for a good time. It's cheap, the setting is fun and the cocktails are always tasty (and surprisingly have a fair share of alcohol in them, something other bars fail to do). The bar-staff are also amusing and perfectly friendly. I have never been on any other days, only Tuesday's, and so can't speak for other nights but the ambiance is lively, London and fun. I absolutely recommend for dates, or for a group of people looking to have a good time.

Great night out, went on a date, tasty pizza and good drinks. Live music is fantastic ! Place gets packed very quickly but the outside space is a bonus. Quirky decor and friendly staff who were obviously having fun.

Live music on Wednesday from 9-10pm was much better than expected and turned a few after work drinks into what felt like a very enjoyable evening.Drinks are always great and there was a wide selection of cocktails.We ordered a pizza to share - it was OK but not amazing.

I came here with girlfriends and we loved the place! It's very new orleans/brookly music scene and is decorated beautifully. However the female staff were a bit rude... there were two girls, one who was Irish who didn't pay attention to my drink order due to chatting to another bartender. I felt a little ignored. The cocktails were good but the not the best I've had... Other than the initial drink, during the evening it got better and we had a different server. I loved the music and the live band were amazing! Will go back as we had lots of fun.

So went here on Saturday night and ordered 2 Vodka Redbulls, before the drinks were poured the glasses were filled to the top with ice (this is becoming an increasingly common tactic by bar staff to give you as little drink as possible), I asked the girl behind the bar to remove some of the ice which she did begrudgingly while moaning about it to her colleague thinking I was out of earshot. She then had the cheek to charge me £15 for 2 vodka redbulls, which were pretty tasteless owing to the fact that she didnt actually use redbull but some cheap energy drink on tap instead!

I'm surprised there aren't more reviews for this place because it's a gem in the Clapham Common area! Cool bar with a really good range of cocktails on the drinks menu. Staff are really friendly. The first time I stumbled into Venn Street Records with a few friends, we happened to be there when they had a live music act. The band (The Last Of*) were really lively and really good fun, was a highlight of the night so I highly recommend Venn Street when they're playing. Have been back a few times and taken advantage of their 'cheap date night' on a Tuesday or Wednesday, which offers 2 Pizza's and 2 cocktails/ drinks for just £15. The pizza has a very homely, authentic taste. Well worth the deal! Venn Street Records has such a good buzz to it, even on days when it's not so busy. Highly recommend to all!

We went for my birthday and it was great fun! The booking process was straight forward, with very prompt email replies from the establishment (and booking was free). A stone's throw away from the Clapham Common, it was very easy to get to. It has outside seating too which is perfect for the summer. The music caters for all and the drinks were varied, although the cocktails are the highlights of this place. It does get very busy later in the evening, but that's to be expected in the heart of Clapham. Overall, a very lively and friendly place, definitely would go back!

we like this place in the summer and winter,we like to sit outside and have our drinks and chat and people watch,its nextdoor to the cinema and opposite 3 or 4 restaurants,they do have outside heating,if its rainning inside,nice music and has a buzz about it,friendly staff and a good meeting place,well worth a visit, will be back.
