The Gallery West Hampstead

We recently visited The Gallery, a charming bar just a couple of minutes from West Hampstead tube station. The atmosphere is intimate, relaxed, and cosy, with soft lighting and a mix of sofas, tables, and bench seating. One of the highlights is the interior balcony, which offers a great view of the whole bar, though it only has four tables. If you can, I’d recommend sitting there. The décor, featuring vintage-style photos and candle lighting, makes it a perfect spot for meeting friends or going on a date. Prices for drinks are reasonable for London, and they offer a great variety of craft beers, wines, and cocktails. Though we didn’t try the food, the efficient and polite staff made sure we were never waiting long to be served. One downside is the street outside, which often has open rubbish bags, detracting from the overall experience. Still, The Gallery is definitely one of the best bars in West Hampstead, full of personality and worth a visit if you’re in the area.

I wasn't happy with the staff that was so possessive for wanting us to charge £10 for us to stay in the bar even though we there earlier buying food and drinks. Also being conned by staff for to pay for a free drink that was included for the new year's eve party A place like that just shows that it's pure greed and extortionate even in these hard times. Roll on 2024 for very expensive greedy bars, I won't be coming back here again. 5 month's later after there review.... So I get my explanation and I am supposed to be persuaded by a  stupid price offer of small plate and a house drink??? To be honest I wouldn't want that stupid offer even if it was free!!  so really your just insulting my intelligence with your arrogant  Kill them with love policy/attitude which tells me that I won't ever be returning ever! as there are cheaper and better bars that dont treat people this way. For a cocktail bar that  looks very expensive, neet and tidy it's very difficult for anyone to believe you are struggling with customer's and very  high prices whilst cheaper pubs survive. I am sure that same as other critics of this place that  you  assume we all all stupid but like I said better places to go so happy summer to you and looking forward towards your closing down signs.

I’ve been for drinks/snacks a few times and always a cool vibe. Today I went for lunch with a friend and my 2 young kids. We had an excellent experience. The waiter was extremely helpful and accommodating to our many needs, the service was super speedy and excellent, the food and drinks were delicious and we overall had a really enjoyable time. Can be hard to find a nicer place to take children during the day but this is definitely it for us and we will be back! Thank you!
