Babble, Mayfairback to pub details please note - reviews on this site are purely the opinion of site visitors, so don't take them too seriously.
trendy place, expensive drinks, not enough room to stand in when busy so all in all a typical central london bar/club.
downstairs music is good and atmosphere relaxed but upstairs, due to the lack of room to move, some people can get a bit aggressive.
one to go to after beeing somewhere else and turning up for a drink fulled dance downstairs.

The interior resembles a brothel in mourning, the drapes, sofas and �chandeliers� all in shades of black and decorated with diamante. All of it overly ostentatious and devoid of taste. The bar staff, when they got round to serving you, were quick but their surly attitude made you feel as though you had somehow wronged them deeply, as if you had killed and eaten a beloved family pet.
The beer was flat, even from bottles freshly opened. This is quite a talent. The music was awful. That said, it may have been the best music in the world but the venue seemed to have only installed sub-woofers rather than the full gambit of normal speakers.
I would rather undergo invasive surgery without anaesthetic than return.

Decent enough trendy wine bar if that is what you're after. No real beer obviously, and the bottled stuff is expensive.
Sort of place you'd go to impress your young lady, not for a beer with your mates if you catch my drift.

This is a small trendy wine bar with only Staropramen on tap, not that the clientele could care less as they were all drinking white wine.
This is one to avoid if you have a personality or enjoy pubs.

Terrible place - absolutely soulless, foreign speaking bar staff (as usual) who couldn't understand a word I said and everyone inside spent their time looking at other people. Don't go here - save your money and go to The Coach and Horses round the corner.

Babble is the perfect venue for an all out night. With a chic and elegant bar upstairs, and cozy booths surrounding the dancefloor downstairs, Babble can please a variety of people.
