  • "Amazing place with a great service.. best choice for summer parties and gatherings, has such a summery feel, feels almost like being on holiday :)"
  • "The location itself is great; a stone’s throw from the tube, rooftop, and not remotely cramped."
  • "Cool bar with a good location."
  • "It's really nice and beautiful there."
  • "Had an amazing time at Lost! Would recommend to anyone - was quite quiet at the beginning of the night."

  • "Good for a few drinks :) music was okay and staff were nice."
  • "Nice place next to the toilets in Brixton Village. Decor sort of like an enchanted forest."
  • "We visited during the day, so we didn't get to experience the full atmosphere, but what we did see was amazing, very well decorated."

Cons:

  • "One thing to note is that the toilet isn't actually in Lost in Brixton, they are just outside the entrance, and they can get very busy."
  • "Cool place but should decide on whether it’s a food court, bar or club."
  • "The music is far too loud in there, considering that there is no dance floor and instead just seating everywhere."
  • "It's a fun bar, with an open roof.. There's no air conditioning so it does get very warm as the temperatures rise, with no wind to cool off."
  • "It’s a cute place to go for drinks at the weekend. It’s a tad loud so you have to do the usual shouting if you want to talk to people."
  • "Music is too loud, but the space has potential."
  • "Disappointing! Average space just a rectangular area with a bar at the end."
  • "Profoundly underwhelmed upon entry, and throughout the whole visit."
  • "Loud music to the point you can’t even speak to the person next to you."
  • "Very minimal options of where you can order food from which caused enormous delays and waiting times for our meals."

  • "We came over on Tuesday, just for a few drinks. We was served by Shabs. He was an absolute lovely person."
  • "The security staff were unnecessarily heavy handed with one person in our group leaving us all feeling unwelcome so we left within 45 minutes of arriving."
  • "Service was ridiculously poor. Manager said there is a 40 min wait for drinks after waiting an hour already."

  • "Had my own personal grievances with this bar but was willing to give it a go as a friend had booked a table for their birthday."
  • "Staff are rude they wouldn’t even accommodate adding more toilet paper into the women’s toilet and when questioned we got kicked out. Completely unjust!"

  • "We visited for a friend's birthday and had the most disappointing, shocking experience."
  • "I am sorry but this place is just a big no."
  • "Had to wait 40 mins for drinks when ordered online, asked where drinks were twice to no avail, rude staff and had to ask for manager for proper apology!"
  • "Customer service is terrible. Booked two tables for a big group. When we arrived they were separated."
  • "The security at the venue were extremely rude and aggressive."
  • "Disgusting service, manager doesn’t know what he is doing! 40 mins for a bottle of sparkling rose just to have it refunded!"

  • "You can also order food from one of the many different food shops located nearby."

  • "The drinks are quite overpriced and I do not recommend getting a bottle of wine from here."
  • "Music is good but it’s too loud to have conversations - then again, the place is too much of a restaurant/bar to focus on the music only and be more of a club where people dance."

  • "The bar looks great but there literally isn’t a toilet so you need to go into the market and queue for 20-40 mins to wee in a disgusting unisex toilet."
  • "Did not enjoy it at all :/"
  • "Drinks were ok, but the food menu is way too difficult to figure out."
