  • I visit here once a week or so and although the selection of beers and cocktails are impressive unfortunately the service and the quality of the food and cocktails is a bit hit and miss. Some nights it is spot on but all too often when it gets even a little bit busy the quality of the food and drinks slips. £8 for a cocktail is pretty fair, but don't use watery half-melted ice to make them and don't simply throw a few spirits together half-arsed like just because there are a few people waiting.

  • It seems no one bothers when they have something nice to say! Well, yes a vodka and diet coke ( who the hell drinks vodka and coke, let alone DIET, let us first point this out) is £6... But it is a double. A standard, 25 ml spirit and mixer is half that price I believe. who drinks singles?? ;) All of the delicious cocktails are made with love, and a lot of booze, so says that happy feeling you call drunk. As for the service- if you are nice to bartenders, they are nice to you. If you havent noticed this phenomenon in a bar or restaurant before then maybe you should try their job. Sip, shoot, enjoy!

  • Really like this place when it's not too busy. Staff are always really friendly. It's not cheap (although bottled beers aren't bad) but is the only place on Broadway Market that does real cocktails.

  • Disgusting service. The folk who run the bar are a bunch of arrogant posers . Once cocktails use to be good, now they don't even bother anymore, they are only worried about £££. Classical example of a place that started well and now has sold his soul. Don't go.

  • Awful service, would not recommend to anyone! My mate booked a table for her birthday several months in advance and paid a £50 deposit. We turned up at 8 (the time of the booking) to be told "oops we've double booked you" no effort was made to accommodate us or compensate us for the massive inconvenience. We later found out that the group sat at our table were friends of the manager.Talking to others in the bar it was clear that this was not the first time! I would never go back to Off Broadway after the way they treated us! DO NOT BOOK TO COME HERE!

  • Yeah, it not cheap, shot what is these days is Hackney. I go to weathersp**n if I'm broke, but can only take so much of that till i need to be stimulated with some passion and proper cocktails. Off Broadway, is a great hang out during the week, the barmen are a bit out of their minds, but that is a good thing, at least they are fun to chat with. I think the Mexican food is great and total authentic. Plus I get a nice warm feeling with two of their cocktails. This is an American bar for sure, it almost makes me want to tip them - almost ;)

  • Yeah but their beer is imported from the states, and not standard tasteless US fizz along the lines of Coors or Budweiser either. I found the selection of everything there, especially the myriad bottles of spirits, pretty impressive considering the size of the place. In comparison with the staff of most places, the people behind the bar seemed engaged and funny and most importantly happy to be doing their job. A new favourite!

  • Rip off!! A pint is £4 and vodka diet coke £6. Add the two burritos which arrived wrapped in tin foil as all good food does and the total bill was £30. Come on! We're in Hackney not Mayfair. Show some respect to your customers and stop overcharging to maximise profit. What's happened to Broadway Market. I used to enjoy it down there but now they're all about the money as everywhere else. You used to be different. Not worth the effort anymore.
