A stylish, art deco hotel bar in Holborn offering solid food, attentive staff, and live music, with a few service hiccups and moderate prices.
Atrium Bar & Restaurant delivers reliable dining anchored by exceptional art deco design and atmosphere and strong staff attentiveness, but inconsistent food quality and recurring service delays—particularly during busy periods—prevent it from reaching higher territory. The classic British grill menu and cocktail program are competent rather than distinctive, making it a solid choice for hotel guests and local occasions rather than a destination venue.
One caveat: Service speed is a recurring issue, especially for drinks and during busy times.
