What a great bar right in the heart of Soho. Went to see the band who played for 3 hours. Pit pricey but it is London and no admission charge so all in all well worth the visit. Great selection of beers and spirits.

Very crowded and overpriced venue that has excellent live music. A wonderful place to catch up with acquaintances you don't want to speak to, but are obligated to socially hang out with. I discovered this place because one of my best friends from the US of A wanted a taste of what blues in London sounded like. I would recommend staying away during the weekends though - the entry criteria in itself is a rip-off.

Small pub in the very centre of Carnaby. They do live music (Blues, Jazz, rockabilly..) so if you enjoy this music, the place is a must. The only complains are that the place turns in a bit small during concerts, so if you feel bad in small and crowded places you are not going to enjoy. Anyway looks like they try their best to avoid this problem by limited access control. Beer is a bit expensive, but this is London downtown, so prices are also quite inevitable.

Neat little pub with blues bands playing. Really friendly and really low key. Liked it a lot. It's a bit grungy looking in parts but I guess that adds to the overall charm. I'm sure it must be getting quite crowded at times in the evening.

Live and free blues next to Regent Street.

Live and free blues next to Regent Street.
Check their program on the web. Jams are free, consert are a few pounds. Always packed when music, you have to push your way through and hold your pint high;-). Local bands change every 20 min or so at jams.

It is free admission weekdays but problem is on weekends. I paid for a guy who asked bouncers to get into free because he had no money but want to listen some blues. Bouncers should know the spirit of blues.

Nice place, small so go early for free music (went before 19.00) Ideal before going for dinner or after. Great ambiance. The drinks (gin & tonic) were expensive but maybe its the normal price now in London

The band who played here during my visit was great, and the bar has cool decor. The place was however way too crowded to be enjoyable, which also made it very hard to get to the bar and order drinks. Ended up leaving and going somewhere else due to this.

Arguably the best place in Central London for a blues jam session. A chance to stay just centimetres away of the musicians, and enjoy real people playing real instruments in a relaxed environment. It gets pretty packed, so if you want a seat come early, but it has this intimate feeling.

When we arrived there was live jazz music and everybody was enjoying themselves dancing.There was a great vibe in that bar and it was late open on Tuesday night which is a win-win! Very very nice drinks!

Nice place! Good music

Amazing energy and the band was amazing, had never been to a blues bar before but will definitely be going back. The only problem was it was a bit too small as the bar is situation really close to the stage.

I had a best experience visiting this place! The band was super, and the atmosphere just great. My best recommendation for jazz experience. (Just take to consideration that the place is very very crowded)

Best blues experience in London. If it looks packed then just hang around for 30 minutes because people move out pretty regularly. Managed to get a seat at the front and so worth it. Crazy good jamming and sets from all the musicians

An unsuspecting find on an otherwise restaurant street but once in, you are transported to deep south America, complete with a rotating band to keep things interesting. Lovely, cozy and small setting, however you would not want anything else. Its worth noting it gets really busy!
Drinks reasonably priced.
If you've not been it's a must!

I showed up there late after late show at Ronnie Scott s which is about a 5 minute walk from there, place was packed and it is a small venue, real good blues vibe band was great and interactive( my style), only issue was very few tables or places to sit, but the vibe was down and dirty blues so all is good, next time I m around I will stop by earlier, I may try the live blues jam, they have them there on Sunday at 4pm

Mention the name Aint nothing but to most Londoners and they will be able to tell you about this narrow haled bar that serves up a contagious mix of live blues music and pub price drinks. With a 7 day a week schedule (including a extra Sunday lunch performance) the bar serves as a great spot for catching live music in central London. Covered wall to wall with blues posters it serves both the blues connoisseur and the keen novice however though the music and drinks no ones noticing.

Really good fun, liked the vibe, some awesome bluegrass group was playing and everyone there was good spirit and in a good mood, the bouncer was a decent, friendly guy as well. Only downside was the amount we drank, but your mileage may vary - give it a go and see if it's for you!

Amazing music and athmosphere! With gigs every day...

Amazing music and athmosphere! With gigs every day of the week, mostly free! Sunday and Monday eve is jamsession night with a very nice and approachable international community of musicians. Rest of the week is on calendar with some great surprise of huge blues men.
