About this space

London’s first police station turned gastropub, near Leicester Square, features The Gin Bar Terrace to celebrate a work Christmas party under a covered terrace to protect you from the weather.

The Gin Bar & Terrace is beautiful spot to have your special events!

Located on the first floor with its own dedicated bar, covered outside space (not to be confused with our rooftop!) and hanging plants, our Gin Terrace is great spot to drink or dine whatever the weather. We take gin pretty seriously with over 30 varieties all with their own hand selected garnishes and tonic.

Why not organise your perfect day here?

The space you are referring to is equipped with a semi-private bar, which means it is shared with other customers. This arrangement allows multiple guests to enjoy the amenities of the bar area while still maintaining a certain level of privacy.

In addition to the bar, the space also provides access to a restroom. This ensures convenience for all customers utilizing the area.

However, it's important to note that the bar located within the room has specific operating hours. It will be open until 22:00 (10:00 PM). After this time, the bar will close, and no further services will be available. This closing time ensures that noise and disturbance are minimized during late hours, allowing guests to have a peaceful experience.

By sharing the bar area with other customers and having a set closing time, the establishment aims to create a balance between providing a social atmosphere and maintaining a comfortable environment for all guests.

The bar located within the shared space has closed at 22:00, you have the option to head to the bar on the ground floor for more drinks. The establishment provides an additional bar facility on the ground floor, allowing guests to continue enjoying a variety of beverages and socializing after the closing time of the bar in the room.

Cute bar area, friendly staff, tasty food, very good location
Had to ask for plates and cutlery for the buffet food. Would help if a sign or area roping could be provided to make clear the Gin Bar was booked for a private function. Some other patrons kept wandering into the area, creating awkwardness.
