bbar
Victoria, London
Victoria’s best cocktail venue
Located beneath London's largest Living Wall, recently replanted with more than 6,000 herbaceous plants to breathe life into our surroundings, bbar is a vibrant cocktail bar and restaurant in the heart of Victoria.
Our new menu plays homage to our heritage, with dishes that beautifully reflect the flavours of South Africa with a playful twist, from Boerewors Eggs Benedict with chilli chutney biltong to The Gatsby Sub, a Western Cape pulled BBQ short rib of beef.
Alongside this exceptional new menu, we have live mix sessions and DJ sets throughout the week, as well as contemporary signature cocktails created by our resident mixologists.

Family & connecting rooms
For a family weekend break or short stay, a Superior King Twin room is ideal – it sleeps a family of four in comfort and offers all those thoughtful touches that make our hotel experience so special. These rooms are spacious enough to accommodate a king-sized bed, which can be made into two single beds, as well as two extra beds for children under 12 years old, plus an en-suite bathroom.
We offer two pairs of interconnecting Superior King Twin Rooms, ideal for families with teenagers or for larger families. This gives you a variety of flexible options that allows you to include additional family members.
Dining options
Children under 12 years dine for free when ordering from the children's menu and dining with a paying adult. Our team understands that eating in a restaurant with children can sometimes be a challenge so we're also happy to provide adapted seating and special cutlery so that everyone can relax and enjoy their dining experience.
Executive Chef Helder has created a special Duke and Duchess Afternoon Tea for our younger guests which includes some of their most popular treats. They can also enjoy cupcake decorating, a complimentary activity for families where children can decorate their own cupcake with one of our chefs and receive a certificate in cupcake decorating to take home.
