Review of Wine Club #1 - A Greek Party!

Overall rating: 5 Verified review

This was a great event with good food, wine and music. The roof garden is very tastefully decorated, the sommelier had chosen four really interesting wines to taste, the food selection was really nice and the live music got everyone on their toes dancing the night away until midnight - would definitely go again!

Review of Drinks with a View. BAR OPEN!

Overall rating: 2.5 Verified review

Not sure why I had to pay £6 a ticket as no one checked them until we overheard someone asking another customer if they’d had their complimentary drink . Drinks were not the best and quite pricey - snacks were not the best either

Review of Jacobs Roof Garden

Overall rating: 1.5

Went for the NYE party expecting it to be fairly classy having paid £42 for tickets but it felt like a kids disco in a village hall, there were some cheap decorations and everything felt a bit thrown together. There was a constant queue for 3 shared toilets and the sink wasn’t working so you couldn’t wash your hands, only hand sanitiser was on offer. Only one patio heater was working so outside was very cold, appreciate the time of year and blankets were on offer. Staff were polite and friendly. Just wasn’t worth the money and wasn’t what we expected.

Review of New Years Eve at Jacobs Roof Garden: Dancing in the moonlight!

Overall rating: 3 Verified review

After paying £42 a ticket we were expecting more for our money. This was an expensive NYE event compared to other venues. I'd previously advised that a member of our party was a Coeliac and was told there'd be GF options available. When we arrived we were told GF options 'may' be GF. Also the toilets weren't sanitary as the sink wasn't working to wash hands. One of the outdoor fires also wasn't working which meant many of the guests were freezing cold outside. Venue would be nice in the Summer but I wouldn't recommend this NYE event to others given my party' s experience.

Review of The Winter Rooftop Garden - With Live Jazz band.. BAMZU!

Overall rating: 2.5 Verified review

It was too cold. Not enough heaters. I think kit would work better in the summer with the bank outside on the terrace

Review of Babylon ~ No Love Lost (Evening Session)

Overall rating: 4.5 Verified review

I think if your 18 -25th old great, but being over the age of 30 (my daughter) and 47 (me) we both felt to old. It would be good to promote this to 30+ somethings in order to get the place fuller with a much better atmosphere. The rooftop was only a quarter full. Great music with a lot of covers from the 1990 and early 2000s .
