Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

The Chapel Bar was the perfect choice for our running club party which I organised in July 2023. We booked the whole venue for around 120 people and it worked really well - everyone loved the variety of different spaces with the outdoor terrace, upstairs...and downstairs bar, and dance floor. We pre-ordered some canapés and the BBQ menu, which was ideal for our group. The venue staff were very friendly and accommodating, and were particularly good at organising the alternative menu options for people in our group with dietary requirements. The bar is well-stocked with a great selection of cocktails, shots and other drinks, the pricing is reasonable for central London, and overall the venue offers a fun atmosphere for this type of private event. I received lots of positive feedback from the guests and would definitely recommend for similar parties!More

I’ve just celebrated my 35th birthday at The Chapel Bar and it was amazing from start to finish. I ordered the canapés for my guests and we all absolutely loved the food! It went down really well rather than having a more traditional menu. The...staff were excellent on the night, I didn’t have to worry about anything, they completely took over the arrangements and carried out everything exactly as I wanted. I couldn’t have asked for a better venue to host my party and would highly recommend The Chapel Bar to family and friends! Big thank you to you all at The Chapel Bar!More

We hired the Terrace room and garden for a surprise 30th birthday party. Our event went so smoothly, the manager Luke, helped us every step of the way, as well as Ollie and John on the day, can’t thank them enough. The food was great,...we had the BBQ, menu, highly recommend this, as well as the vegan options too. The venue is quite spacious for dancing and the garden is perfect to sit and chill but still be part of the celebration. We will look back with happy memories, thanks again to Luke Ollie and John for a very memorable day. Highly recommend this gem in Islington.More

Brilliant venue! I hired the terrace out for my 25th birthday and it was fabulous! The bar staff and manager (John) were so great on the night and everyone said how much they loved the venue. Even though the venue was clearly very busy in...the build up to the event they are quick to respond so you are able to make all the arrangements you could want. Would highly recommend!More

Booked Chapel bar for my wifes 40th based on previous reviews. From the start of organising the party with Luke to the party day itself everything was perfect. All the staff were super friendly and hard working on the evening, the food canapes were lush...and the whole layout of the venue was perfect for my wife to have an amazing night with her friends. Would highly recommend anyone considering this venue to book! (even if you havn't visited the venue like i hadn't)More

We booked The Chapel Bar for our wedding reception. The venue was incredible. Extremely accommodating and professional. Clean and well organised. The food was superb and the whole night was a total success. They helped us find a DJ who was terrific, their door staff...helped keep everything private. All our guests were complimenting the venue and the food the day after. We had such an amazing experience! Thank you to everyone involved you made our day truly memorable!More

The Chapel Bar is a lovely size venue and well laid out. It was decorated beautifully for Christmas. The organisation was great, they sourced a karaoke machine for us and were flexible in the packages thy offered. They even allowed us to change dates after...train strikes were announced. On the evening, the staff were fantastic. We had finger food which was ok. We really loved the atmosphere and would definitely return.More

We had our wedding party at The Chapel Bar and it was amazing! The design of the venue was exactly what we envisaged – lots of space but with an intimate feel. 2 floors, with 1 bar on each, plenty of space for chatting and...relaxing, an upstairs outdoor terrace and a separate dance floor (with DJ booth and disco lights!). From the very beginning, Luke was highly responsive, accommodating to our requests, very helpful and easy to work with – we knew that everything was in safe hands. Luke and his team did a great job on the day and everything ran seamlessly – they really helped make the evening memorable and special for our guests! The food was great – the canapes to start, the BBQ dinner, desserts and the late night snacks, and, the full bars offered our guests anything they could want. We had an amazing night, and danced until 2am. We received many compliments from our guests and would highly recommend The Chapel Bar! Thanks so much!More
