Really nice atmosphere, friendly and knowledgeable staff and good cocktails in a basement in Covent garden, London! We came in a happy hour on monday before 8pm and cocktails were 7 pounds each. Toilets looks really nice and works ok. Bartenders knows how to do proper drinks and you don't have to worry about getting a good or bad drink. 😋 Go and drink here!

I’ve been to Dirty Martini on numerous occasions and have always had a great time. The food has been plentiful, the atmosphere on point, and the staff consistently attentive and friendly. However, on this occasion at the Covent Garden location, my experience fell short.

We were there for a friend’s milestone birthday, and the service, though decent and attentive, couldn’t make up for the delays in the kitchen. The food took over an hour to arrive, and when it finally came, it wasn’t worth the wait. To their credit, the staff handled it well and didn’t charge us for the additional food we had to order, but it’s disappointing that the food quality and timing weren’t up to the usual standards.

Dirty Martini is such a great place for a bottomless brunch or drinks, and it’s a shame to see standards slipping when it comes to the food—especially when both food and drink are key to the experience. Sadly, this visit didn’t live up to expectations, and I’d rate it a 2 out of 5 based on this occasion.

Just loved the cocktails, espresso martini very good, could have stayed all night, staff know their stuff and quick. Music a little too loud for me and wouldn’t recommend to an asthmatic a layer of dust to everything up high, toilets not very clean either. Not the easiest place to find due to being in the basement and the next door establishment covering the signs with their exterior umbrellas.

Spent a lovely afternoon with friends, drinks and food were very enjoyable. A Huge shout out to Shane, who bless him was on his own but made sure we were looked after, offered great service with a smile.

Our waitress was amazing, food was tasty & plentiful. Cocktails were free flowing, I haven’t stopped recommending it since we left to others coming to London! £75 for 2 people was an absolute steal.
