CellarDoor Description
CellarDoor is featured in these Guides:
There’s something ever so exciting about being underground in dim lights.
It’s even more exciting in a quirky bar when there’s live burlesque and jazz.
And if you have a penchant for tobacco, you can even try a little snuff!
Cellar Door is the type of bar you’ll want to get cosy in, and as it’s an extremely intimate space, for once it’s easier done than said.
Among the quirks of the establishment are the toilets – doors that are transparent but steam up during ‘business’ hours.
Cellar Door is an extravagant and quite fabulous bar hidden in the depths of a public toilet in
The selection of cocktails and champagne is great.
Usually, they have DJ nights and interesting performances.
The atmosphere is definitely unusual and full of surprises.
The Cellar Door is perfect for starting the night with friends, and also maybe for a more romantic rendezvous.
The bar is unquestionably an excellent find with no tourists in sight.
It is advisable to book a table if you are planning to stay for longer than one drink.
Entry to the bar is free! Now that’s exciting!

“Wow, what a night. The atmosphere at CellarDoor is second to none. The staff are hardworking and so very friendly and helpful. You are made to feel welcome and almost like an old friend. With no dress code, you will never feel out of place, whether you are wearing old jeans or a cocktail dress. The drag artist is wonderful and the burlesque dancer is sexy and very entertaining. The toilet doors are rather cool too. Whether it be just for a night out or a celebration, CellarDoor is a must. I will certainly be visiting again. ”

“A great first date bar. Small, cosy, good selection of drinks, quirky, right in the West End, and there's always something happening so it will keep the conversation flowing. That said, my first date hasn't called me back yet. Maybe I'll take my next date here then.”

“Superb subterranean cabaret bar in a rather unlikely location of a loo under the Strand. Secluded and perfect for illicit affairs with bum shaped banquettes, kiss me/lick me bar stools, and the sexiest toilets around, this place oozes cool in a space barely bigger than your front room.
The cocktails are fabulous, but the nightly live jazz is where CellarDoor really comes alive. Kitty La Roar and Nick of Time on Thursdays always get everyone going with crazy, mixed up renditions of grunge hits and swing classics.”

“Cool underground bar - very small but what it lacks in size it makes up for in
imagination with free text jukebox, translucent loos doors that mist over when you
lock them, amazing cabaret and burlesque acts every night from 9pm and table
service from fallen angels (complete with wings). But above everything else the bar
staff are friendly with none of the snotty attitude you get in lots of Central London
bars. The cocktails are great and, although they're not the cheapest in the West
End they're very reasonable - especially as there is no entrance fee even for the live
acts”
