Time Out has teamed up with tastelondon to offer you a fantastic one month free trial
Lost Society is one hell of a bar. You probably won't manage to witness all its charms on a single visit - not if you give the cocktail list the level of attention it deserves anyway - but whichever of the six rooms you end up in, you'll find the same sense of stylish decadence. And repeat visits are a given. Like the fantasy country-house party of your dreams, Lost has something of a roaring twenties feel, with aristocratic opulence at every turn, art deco touches, high ceilings, chaises longues and a crystal-bead light shade above the main bar. Drink offerings have suitably glam appeal: a mind-boggling array of bottled beers (from Brahma to Badger), cocktail recipes of yesteryear (juleps, mai tais, pina coladas, £6.50), whole bottles of spirits with free mixers (Mount Gay Extra Old, £95), carefully selected wines galore. The garden out back has a hidden, secret garden feel, DJs spin a crowd-pleasingly eclectic mix and Tuesday night cocktail classes (8pm, £22.50 per person) offer an educational excuse for getting wasted on a 'school' night. No wonder this place is rammed every weekend - there's nowhere else like it for miles.

Went to Lost last thursday afterwork with my girlfriends for a few cocktails. It was spectacular! The Fondue Thursdays is unique! Wasn't expecting to have such a big night out in the mid-week. The cocktails were fabulous! A mere 4,50 for my favourite Singapore sling! Superb! The resident djs added up to the vibe! The staff and customers made a real effort, all dressed up in 80's outfits! Not to forget to mention, we also had a delicious fondue with all the trimmings! A must!
Went to lost society when it first opened, had a great time, moved away from london. Went back to Lost last weekend for a friends birthday.....they still got it!
We had dinner before heading upstairs for more cocktails and dancing. The food was fantastic, the drinks delicious and the people very friendly and unpretentious.
The main thing i remember from my first visit was the staff, for all the right reasons, some of those faces were still there, thats a great sign of a good bar.
Well done!
