    A bar situated next door to the New Street Grill. The bar is fairly small with a few low couches and tables. We ordered drinks which unfortunately took more than half an hour to arrive which was quite disappointing as we only had an hour to spare before our dinner date. We also had to wait quite a while for our bill too. There appeared to be a shortage of waiting staff on the night. The Manager did apologise for the delay when we raised this with her however for a Saturday night 1 barman and 1 waiter appears to be insufficient. We have visited the Old Bengal before and will probably visit again. Hopefully there will be sufficient staff and no long delays.

    Didn’t have any food but the app wouldn’t let me progress without giving a score for it! Nice little spot, staff were friendly and attentive. Drinks were nice - great selection and reasonably priced for the location.

    Lovely bar, really cool inside and felt private sitting outside too, secluded. Staff were really friendly and fun, just took look to order. Didn’t want to fault this place, so I won’t. It’s a great place to go with anyone, friends, a date, business. Good bathrooms too.

    Didn't honor the booking. Apparently there was a private event.

    We had a late Sunday lunch here and were very impressed by the bar; the outside terrace has a table football machine and comfy sofas ideal for drinks, as well as the tables for diners, and the inside bar is elegantly decorated with the toilet entrances concealed in the mirrored wall at the far end. Although it is so close to Liverpool Street, it was calm and relaxing and wonderfully cool on a very hot day. The burgers we ordered were enormous and very good and I can recommend the cocktails. On a Sunday they also do a great offer where for £10 you can drink as much prosecco as you like. Quiet at first but it filled up later; bound to be lively on weekday evenings. The service is impeccable. I would definitely go back.
