Vesper Bar in City of London, Westminster

Lovely bar, helpful staff and amazing cocktails

Incredible service and creative but perfectly balanced cocktails in a luxe but relaxing setting. Nice vibe with chill contemporary club mixes of jazz era tunes. One of the best cocktail bars we have ever been to, a see make a point of trying the top 100 in every city we visit.

Stopped by the Vesper bar for a couple of drinks and loved the new refurbished bar 🍸 and the service was excellent

Jaw-dropping cocktails in a refined, elegant and luxurious setting. Go for the cocktails and sit back and soak it all in! The cocktail menu is wonderfully crafted, great concept and all full of perfectly balanced flavours

Stopped for few drinks. Nice place, very cozy. DJ lady was playing amazing music

Went here for a date, and I had a fantastic evening. It is a great cocktail bar with amazing decor, ambience, and service. They had a great DJ, which was play cool,chilled out tunes that weren't too loud, so you could talk

We went with friends to the Vesper bar and we had a fantastic night! Lucia, Jack and the team took exceptional care of us all and we had snack from the menu which were simply delicious. The environment is stunning and the customer service outstanding so no surprise that they have won an award! Congratulations to the whole team! We can’t wait to see you in January if not before!

Enjoyed a couple of bottles of champagne with my husband and couple of friends. The staff were absolutely attentive and welcoming. Definitely a five-star hotel service. But unfortunately, I find the music a bit loud for the ambiance.

Some of the best cocktails I have ever had. I would recommend to just enjoy the cocktail menu, and follow recommendations from the bar tenders. You will be in for treat.

Attention to detail at its best! We had an amazing experience, the staff was excellent. I am celiac and they had gluten free cakes, also they gave me all the allergens information about the snacks. The cocktail experience was a dream, could not celebrate this special occasion in a better place 😍, thank you!!

Beautiful surroundings and classy service. We also received two complementary birthday drinks. It was a very nice touch. My favourite was The License to Chill..

We went to the Vesper bar for a drink and some snacks and nibbles with some friends there were 6 of us in total. Jack and his team in the Vesper bar took exceptional and outstanding care of us. The surroundings are beautiful and nothing was too much trouble. We shall definitely return! Congratulations and well done to Jack and his team.

Great bar, refurbished to look old! Excellent staff, great cocktails.

Sensational pre-functions drinks at this amazing bar. Will visit again. Thank you.

A fun and elegant bar but there is the sense that something is missing - perhaps just a touch of a certain je ne sais quoi that would make it feel more special. Cocktails are certainly serviceable enough but nothing that makes the bar stand out.

A nice place for a relaxed, private business lunch.

I had an utterly charming evening at Vesper Bar at the Dorchester on Monday. The cocktails were amazing, thank you Lucia! The staff were so kind and attentive, I especially want to thank Holly for providing such a lovely welcome. This is a stunning bar with fantastic ambience, I would highly recommend it to any visitors to London!

We booked a table here for post lunch drinks on a Sat afternoon. The decor was plush and the ambience very chilled. To begin, we ordered a couple of cocktails 🍹 which were wonderful. Having been asked if we were celebrating anything special I mentioned it was my Birthday. We were surprised shortly after that with the tastiest canapés (salmon, aubergine bites etc). The service afforded us was perfect - special mention must be made of Giacomo Faure Asst Mgr who was so attentive throughout our time in the bar. Would definitely love to come her again.

Cozy...The service is amazing...

Always excellent with a great atmosphere, superb service and wonderful staff.

This beautiful art nouveau bar, of a bygone era, with many original features and time reminiscent cocktails. Not cheap, but what nostalgia is!

Beautiful ambiance,love the lamps on the tables and the Venetian effect of the glass panels.The most memorable experience is the CHARMING staff,smiley and eager to meet every request of the guests.Now my favourite bar in London thanks to the team.

Nice and relaxed, very friendly staff

We arrived in London at 10pm and our hotel restaurant wasn't open, so we knew immediately where to head, The Vesper Bar in The Dorchester. The staff is always top notch and our bartender, Denise was really nice. I had a delicious petite steak sandwich and my wife truffle pizzette which she talked about for days. We were so happy to return to this lovely bar!

I love this place became my favorite , amazing cocktails and the staff is very friendly all the time with everyone, you should visit here for a cocktail and classic atmosphere also if you want to be treated .

The most amazing place to experience the most outstanding service, atmosphere, food, drinks.

Live the new Vesper Bar at the newly renovated The Dorchester Hotel in London

A very professional team and a quality place for a g&t

The service level here is unparalleled and the best professional level you will find - everything is managed very well.

Simply fantastic. We visited for my girlfriends birthday - just for drinks. Booking was simple, but on a Thursday evening I would say it wouldn't be necessary. We were greeted with two complimentary cocktails - absolutely not expected but really appreciated. A very nice touch. The complimentary snacks were also delicious and again, a great touch. The staff were incredibly good, attentive but not over the top. Refilling your drinks and snacks when they become empty without you even noticing. The cocktails were good, but not exceptional. Really flavourful but lacked the real "spark" you would expect for the price. The setting is exceptional with the music at the correct volume and the décor plush and comfortable. Perfect when you want to push the boat out a little for drinks, but I would say the prices were reasonable all things considered. Would definitely visit again.

Enjoyed an evening with friends down at the Vesper Bar, the renovation is simply stunning and service second to none! We enjoyed a round of Sipsmith Martinis which were absolutely exquisite (a must try in my opinion), we’ll be back soon.

Excellent service, great venue. Meet with friends for pre-dinner drinks.

Haven’t been here since some time We waited till the bar opened at 16:00. Enjoying our drinks ( Jonny Walker Black Label ), Amaretto and Spicy Virgin Mary Service is excellent as usual

Great place, great drinks! Thank you Lucia & Andrea

Shaken not stirred Vesper had a licence to kill. Blew my head off. Good vibe great service.

Great place and excellent service + exquisite food

Loved the place, service and ambiance, but the music the DJ was playing just doesn't vibe well with the place. It was monotonous and boring, we left after 1 round.

This was our first visit to the recently renovated Vesper Bar. Beautiful decor, comfortable furniture, subdued lighting. We had champagne which was served with olives and breadsticks. I had mentioned that it was my wife's birthday and the team came up with a sweet treat to surprise her. A very nice touch. The service was impeccable from beginning to end. My only issue is, too many tables and chairs, makes the bar extremely claustrophobic. I hope Richard the director of food and beverage will take notice . We shall return.

We booked into the Vespar bar for the evening however we didn’t stay. Initially we were put onto a tiny bench like seat in front of the DJ booth which was really tiny and not relaxing. We asked to move to a table with chairs, which the staff kindly supported. The problem was we were then crammed into the main part of the bar with a large group directly next to us. It was so close that a man at the other table behind kept banging me in the arm/shoulder and I am a petite lady! There seems to be far too many tables and chairs in this bar which made it very crowded and quite claustrophobic. We asked if we could move into the Artists bar and the staff kindly arranged this. The artists bar was the complete opposite. Plenty of space, totally relaxing and beautiful music. We had a bottle of VC and some gorgeous sushi. It was super. We can’t really rate Vespars due to our poor experience but Artists we give 5/5 too and will return.

The refurbishment of this bar is excellent and very well designed. Making much more space than before. The drinks and food are excellent. Best tempura prawns 🍤. Excellent friendly helpful service . Looking forward to returning .

I love this place so much that I visit 2-3 times a week. Highly recommend. The staff are so friendly and service is amazing.

Fantastic service as you would expect.

Lovely classic modern bar with a lovely atmosphere. We chose 2 glasses of the Giato Rosso Nero d' Avola Centopassi 2020. Very nice and smooth taste , very enjoyable. The service was excellent and friendly. We chatted to one of the staff about my Grandfather being a regular there. When he was on business in London from South Africa. in the 60s to the 90s.

We tried the temperance drink “listen to the music ” and “let’s go back to the time”. I would say “music” is nicer, and I can picture a lady with a drink enjoying her night. “go back to the time” the presentation was fun, but not sure it actually brought you the childhood memory, the taste was bit lacking the naughty part.

We are here over the Christmas period. Last night, Christmas Eve, we booked a table at The Bar. Absolutely first class. First class service. First class cocktails. First class food. The staff were super attentive and friendly. The atmosphere was warm and friendly. I cannot believe we have not been here before. Highly recommended for any occassion.

Pure Quality for venue staff service

I booked a table for my wife & myself. When we arrived we were kindly greeted and shown to our table. Service was prompt and pleasent. A good selection of cocktails, spirits and wines. We ate some light bites which tasted amazing. Service was impeccible, occasionally we would look and then you briefly after you would get one of the team look at you and smile, just looking to ensure you are happy and content, it was a nice tough. The ambience is relaxing with some nice music in the background, highly recommend and would return.

We had a dinner at the roof top, it was such an excellent evening, the food is divine and so much of it, the staff are attentive and friendly, we were made so welcome. I know this was a pop up, but of they do it again we are there.

Had our drinks dropped on the floor but staff were great and drinks were even better.

You wont get better service anywhere the staff are truly amazing the Bar is one of the best in London

Amazing cocktails and service and the food is fantastic coming back anytime best regards to the employees who make it so lovely

Absolutely stunning in every way. A must for a visit when in London

I always pop into the Dorchester bar as its my favourite bar in the area, it is cosy and vibrant at the same time. You can have a chilled conversation but theres still a buzz. The staff are always attentive and the canapes are always wonderful.

Excellent range and with knowledgeable staff to guide and advise.

We save the Dorchester for special occasions and it was my friend’s birthday. We managed to get a table upstairs in their Terrace restaurant. Not a pleasant experience ;-( It was very windy and blustery / no table cloths / very informal but VERY expensive for what it is / small food portions and the sharing concept does not really work. I expected such an establishment to get it right but this terrace is a real disappointment. Everything we ordered ( starter / main beans sides) arrived within a few minutes of each other not really allowing us time to savour the food. So of course some items were cold when we came to eat. I queried if they were adhering to social distancing rules as we felt tables were far too close to each other. Honestly we couldn’t leave the dining area fast enough!!! I resented the approx £180 bill for 2 mediocre lunches. I certainly will not be going up there again (but I would still return to Alain Ducaisse or The Grill). Not up to usual Dorchester standards to the point of being a rip off. They have cut huge corners to open an outside restaurant & it is not in keeping with their reputation.

Tasty cocktails but nothing special.... 3 stars are to much..

Beautiful cozy bar to go to see and be seen. We had a couple of old fashions to rest our feet on our way back to our hotel. Great spot.

This was my first time at The Dorchester, had event in the Bar. Absolutely loved it! Great music and atmosphere. The canapes were the best I ever tasted. The staff were very attentive and the evening turn out to be just fabulous!

Warm clean good atmosphere and an array of cocktails mixed by really efficient bar staff. I was here to kill an hour whilst visiting in Park Lane, it’s a warm welcoming place : enjoyable but a bit pricy, but on special occasions well worth it.

I've had a stop for a quick cocktail, and I can say that the hotel itself, the bar, their staff the design and everything was outstanding. Definitely, I will return with my family for an afternoon tea and a stay as well.

The care that Guiliano and Simon and the bar staff team offer is unparalleled. Nothing is too much trouble, we wanted some sandwiches that were not available on the bar menu, no problem they just sorted what we wanted. Wonderful customer service and atmosphere, can’t...

I work NYE so decided to do something special the day before. The cocktails here are great, the service solid but a little stiff for my liking. The negroni I had was incredible and the attention to detail with the cocktails are what set them...

Absolutely outstanding beautiful food the art deco is out of this world beautiful defo be back ♥️xxx

We went for cocktails Our server Denise was amazing, she was friendly, polite and had amazing cocktail making skills She made our visit totally worth it, with one cocktail we even got a lip gloss Definitely worth a visit

Four of us met here for bubbles before lunch at Alain Ducasse along the foyer. The bar has a lovely comfy, almost cozy feel. Highly professional staff are on hand to look after you and serve wonderful nibbles as a matter of course. Expect to...

I bought my husband hair for his birthday and we had a snack lunch in the bar. He is fussy and they always always help getting the food he likes

Located in the Dorchester hotel but open to non residents. Elegant art nouveau/ art deco styling tho I did feel that the carpet and soft furnishings were a bit of an aquired taste ! Cocktails served with a lovely dish of olives and nuts which...

This is the place to relax and have a quiet drink with friends. It can get very busy, but it is a fascinating place to hang out. But beware, the bar bill can soon rack up.

If you ever wanted to see what the ultimate hotel bar looks like, go here. The staff is excellent ant the have nice remedies.

This is a bar with a touch of royalty in all aspects from the floor to the ceiling, from the entrance to your seat. Properly positioned in the hotel near the entrance, it exudes the comfort and proper ambience with its mainly red colour. It...

As you enter the welcome is friendly. Soak up the decor and the history. The cocktails and nibbles were divine. Felt completely at home in this quite relaxing haven away from busy London. Cannot wait to go back .

Great place to get off the busy streets and enjoy a cocktail. We had a lovely time. Thank you guys. We’ll come back

It's 5:00 o'clock somewhere! This is a great place to pop into and had a martini. The service is excellent!

nothings to much to ask for . they have recently changed their menu but we are plain eater. No problem we asked it arrived no fuss

We had been for Afternoon Tea as a birthday treat and had a little time to kill and a cocktail seemed the perfect answer. So we adjourned to the Bar and were welcomed by the thoroughly professional and polished bartenders. A brief discussion regarding some...

Nice decor, friendly staff and good selection. I especially liked the drinks served in tea cups, which was a nice touch.

I went last week to meet my daughter and a friend for a cocktails in the bar.. the staff were unfriendly, condescending when asked for some advice on the bar menu and generally rude. Yes it London but ridiculous prices... really £29 for a glass...

My wife and I came here on a Sunday afternoon to celebrate my 60th birthday. We sat at the bar and drank (too many) cocktails, expertly made for us by the friendly and helpful Denise. They were not cheap, but they were excellent - no...

Amazing ambiance and awesome drinks! Will be back!

We called in for a couple of drinks on a Friday late afternoon/evening and found the bar buzzing. I have to say that this is the type of bar that I love – elegant, without being OTT, but cosy and comfy too. We didn’t have...

We had drinks in the bar area a couple of years ago, and it was the most amazing experience. There was 4 of us, me my mum and two daughters who were 13 and 17 at the time. The service was outstanding and i was...

Visited early afternoon and very impressed with knowledge of bar staff (outgoing Manager and Simone). Lots of history and knowledge of drinks and pairings. Great snacks! Perfectly polite, gracious, attentive service.

You will see an artisan at work. Men must wear a jacket, but the martinnis are the best you will ever have. That said, only have one.

A good test of any mixologist at any bar is to ask him/her for an Old Fashioned and see how it turns out. they certainly don't get it wrong here. A generous chunk of Makers Mark and just the right balance of bitters/orange produced an...

Beautiful, classy, adult, worth the $

A very high end and luxurious bar where the staff remembers what you like to drink and the ambiance is plush and intimate. The martinis are delicious and served in the most amazing stemware. A nice stop before dining at the Grill or China Tang.

The Bar at the Dorchester is becoming one of our “go-to” bars, and we were back on a gloomy November morning (well, early afternoon), for a few glasses of Montrachet. We were seated along the wall (toward Park Lane), and across from the beautiful bar....

My husband and I had just had lunch at The Intercontinental as it was his birthday. We walked past The Dorchester and both said 'lets go for a drink in here'. I've always wanted to go in here but felt I couldn't as wasn't staying...

We had coffee, eggs, croissants and danishes and everything was amazing. One of the best coffees in London. The service was amazing. The waiter was Italian and had the typical Italian charm to tend to the guests. I am sure it is as good or...

Enjoyed pre-dinner drinks at the Bar. It’s a beautiful room, and the staff all have that special Dorchester friendliness. Cocktails are well mixed and nibbles are endless. Recommended.

Classy bar with amazing decor and cocktails out of this world. This is definitely high standard mixology. I do utterly recommend. The cocktails in the picture: The Dorchester Of London (left), Corpse Reviver “2 (right) The Islay Cure (middle- small glass)

Very pleasant atmosphere. The manager is extremely professional and makes sure that customers get the best possible experience.

Felt very welcomed when we arrived for a few drinks. Staff seemed very nice and attentive. Expensive drinks but no different to anywhere else nice in London.

Other than the caption in the title, I don't have very much more to add. The bar is as good as you would expect, any drink that you can think of is available - quite rightly - and light bites are available, without having to...

Unbelievably good cocktails, but they do not come cheap. There are some old favourites that they do exceptionally well then a host of surprises. All served in beautiful glassware and an ample supply of olives and nuts. Service was impeccable. My only criticism - the brown decor. It looks extremely tired and dated, not expecting modern chic and I can’t place the look but it doesn’t exude old glamour.

We started our lunch experience at The Bar, the Perfect 10 and The Vesper were just exceptional. Accompanied by a mixed nut selection and olives it was a perfect start to our lunch at Alain Ducasse.

Such a great location in one of the most beautiful areas of London, had drinks in the bar.. absolutely wonderful, professional Bar man who knows how to make a great martini.. stunning hotel defining pure old fashioned charm and character that the modern hotels in...

The veritable book of choices is a delight. Their standard drinks menu makes each drink an occasion.

I came to the Dorchester by myself one Tuesday night as I had been wanting to try their signature drink, The Dorchester of London. Giuliano talked me through the making of the forbidden fruits liquer that they use and also showed me the cocktail book...
