London Victoria’s best cocktail venue
Located beneath the city's largest Living Wall, recently replanted with more than 6,000 herbaceous plants to breathe life into our surroundings, bbar is a vibrant cocktail bar and South African restaurant in the heart of Victoria, London.
Our menu pays homage to our South African heritage with signature classics and new dishes given a modern twist, from Bobotie Spring Rolls to The Son of a Gun burger. Our braaibroodjie is also a must-try - a unique take on the famous South African grilled cheese sandwich.
Alongside this exceptional, international menu, we have live mix sessions and DJ sets throughout the week, as well as contemporary signature cocktails created by our resident mixologists.

The secret lies in the 'b' to our name: many of our signature recipes have been created by Red Carnation founder Beatrice Tollman, a highly acclaimed chef before she evolved into the international hotelier of today. Beatrice Tollman began her culinary journey in a small hotel in Johannesburg, South Africa.
Led by popular manager Ian Powrie, our vibrant team is always ready to deliver the bbar experience in the heart of Victoria...
