Roll up food lovers, this is one you won’t want to miss! For one night only we’re thrilled to welcome Zaw Mahesh Head Chef of Burmese hotspot Lahpet into our kitchen. Zaw & our Head Chef Gus have created a menu in collaboration - fusing the flavours from our Latin-inspired menu with the best of Burmese street food.
Tickets are £35 for four courses of delicious taster plates including silken truffle tofu, ginger salad tostadas and dreamy cassava coconut cake. We’ve sampled th...ese dishes and they are quite a taste sensation!
Places are limited (*there are only four tickets left!) so we recommend booking in advance using our Lahpet Supper booking type.
*Please note we will be running our normal cocktail service with our full menu for all other guests & bookings!
From 9pm, there will be live jazz from 9pm from the excellent Baraka - a London-based jazz band, creating and performing their own material. You'll hear sounds and influences from South African swing, Caribbean shuffle and Brazilian beats, all fused in London's musical melting pot.

Oriole & Casamigos House of Friends
presents
Copita Club
... This summer, we're hitting up the dance-floor! For a limited series of very special, one-off evenings, we'll be turning Oriole into a swinging, luxurious cocktail World Music discothéque. Evoke the world of the Copacabana in '59 or Whisky-a-Gogo in '60 and enjoy the rare delight of world-class cocktails & music together while dancing into the wee hours.
Up first, the Copita Club in partnership with George Clooney’s tequila of choice, Casamigos, will be a deliriously decadent Mexican fiesta held on Cinco De Mayo. We’ll be serving up our Chihuahua and Quintana Roo cocktails along with margaritas, sangritas and traditional copitas to sip that mezcal from. Splash out and enjoy decadent seated table service in our lounge area with a group of friends (including a complimentary Sharing Cocktail for the table!) or don your dancing shoes and swing down for a standing ticket for cocktails & dancing.
Line up:
9- 11pm / Live music by the Voodoo Love Orchestra
Harking back to the big band sound of 1960s Latin America via the back streets of New Orleans, the infectious, maverick and irresistibly swinging street music of Voodoo Love Orchestra will have the crowd baying for more. This is more an invasion than a performance, with a euphoric riot of musicians weaving in and out of the throng. Delving deep into the heart of the tropics, this globe-trotting ensemble play a whole range of pan-Atlantic sounds: Colombian Cumbia, Cuban Comparsa, New Orleans Jazz + Mississippi Blues. The musical melange of relentlessly syncopated beats and squealing trumpets is an abundantly joyous salute to the roots of carnivale!
11pm - Late / Set from the reknowned DJ Dom Servini
Dom has been filling dance floors since the early 1990s with his beautifully blended, open minded mix of music steeped in soul, jazz and funk. From the early days of his Brighton residency with DJ Snowboy, his infamous late 90s Mouseorgan club events, to a decade and a half DJing under the Wah Wah 45s banner, Dom has become something of a clubbing institution. Dom’s sets are best extended and forward thinking, taking in latin, disco, jazz, electronica and everything in between.
There are two ticket types:
Standing
Lounge Table (Seated)
* Valid Goverment ID
* This event is open to public 21+
* Dress Code Smart Casual

Hello gorgeous 👋 This Cantabrian Anchovy on Crystal Bread has to be tasted to be believed 👌 Crystal bread, or Pan de cristal, is a Catalonian version of ciabatta and is deliciously thin & crispy - that’s why it’s called glass bread - and has pockets of air to catch that tasty anchovy & olive oil. It’s the perfect salty bar bite to accompany a cocktail or three 🍸🍸🍸

Well done, Guys!

One of the best entrances in the world leads down the stairs to this magical "speaky tiki" bar. Although I only had a very short visit, I was enthralled by the experience up at the bar - with two world class drinks, presented beautifully on the best coaster in the game. Props to Luca Cinalli and his staff! I will definitely be back on my next trip.

Nice place and amazing cocktails

User

Love everything about this place from the exotic cocktails, to the live performances, to the very attentive and friendly staff. I will ALWAYS pay this place a visit when I go to London!

User

Had an exceptional experience at the Oriole on my birthday. Extraordinary cocktails and amazing service with great music. Would recommend it to anyone.

User

Great service from all the staff. Very attentive to all our request. Music was great and wonderful atmosphere. Drinks were quite expensive though. Definately recommend.

User

Five stars for everything: guy on the door, bar, taste of the cocktails and the most important ... GARNISH ���

User

First visit to Oriole and absolutely loved it. The cocktails were spot on. especially The Skyfall which is a must try. Classy place but didn't feel pretentious. Service could have been a bit quicker.

User

Best cocktails you can get in London (and the rest of the world for that matter).



Excellent knowledge about the drinks but even more important: always friendly service with a big smile!

User

Best bar in london. Cocktails are out of this world and relatively reasonably priced considering the extravagence of them. The atmosphere is relaxed and chilled. The music is usually extremely good with high quality of musicianship. You cannot do anything but love this place.

User

An absolutely amazing bar with unique cocktails and superb service. A huge thank you to Titto for his inner passion to exceed expectations. Thank you for making my birthday so special!

User

Amazing place and amazing cocktails.

Mihai the bartender was nice and knowledgeable. we really enjoied and will be back for sure

User

After a grandiose entrance - up to London Meat Market standards, you will enter a fine quirky bar, with lovely staff, fantastic cocktails and the live music just makes it a hot spot in town.

User

Very good music, interesting food and cocktails.service and staff were very good. Would go again.

User

Fabulous atmosphere, live music was great. Just went for cocktails and only criticism is the menu is in the smallest print and the place is dark. However... you don't need it. Just tell the waiter your likes and dislikes and they came up with some super drinks for us. Definetly be back.

User

A very classy joint - more formal & spacious than its sister bar 'Nightjar'. The cocktails are world class - I savoured every mouthful - and the snacks delicious. For me, the relaxed intimacy of Nightjar has more appeal, but Oriole makes for an upmarket alternative if you fancy putting your glad rags on and making a night if it. Very expensive but (mainly) worth it x
