All Bar One New Oxford Street

Welcome to your new favorite London pitstop! Tucked away on New Oxford Street, All Bar One isn't just another chain bar; it’s a destination for anyone who wants to combine work, play, and a cracking glass of something cold. Picture this: a buzzing yet relaxed spot where you can close a deal over a spritz at 3 PM, then pivot to catch up with friends over dinner. It’s the kind of place that makes your diary feel effortlessly organised.

What’s the big idea here? Versatility. All Bar One is designed to be your chameleon of social spaces. Need a power lunch? Their menu is packed with fresh, sharable plates (the crispy squid and loaded nachos are legends). Need a post-work wind-down? The cocktail list is a playground, from classic margaritas to inventive seasonal specials. The real advantage? No awkward transitions. You can arrive for a coffee, stay for a wine, and leave on a high note without ever feeling rushed or out of place.

Let’s get creative with how you can use it. Idea one: host a “Working Social.” Invite your team for a late-afternoon brainstorming session—order a round of bottomless brunch-style drinks (they do a mean bottomless Prosecco deal on weekends) and actually enjoy your meeting. Idea two: the “Pre-Theatre Sprint.” Since it’s steps from the Dominion Theatre and Tottenham Court Road, grab a quick dinner of their steak and fries before a show. Pro tip: sit at the huge window-front booths for prime people-watching while you sip your drink.

Now, for the practical bits. Timing is everything. Weekday afternoons (2 PM to 5 PM) are surprisingly quiet—perfect for a laptop session or a quiet catch-up. Avoid the 6 PM rush on Thursdays and Fridays unless you’re ready to mingle; those evenings turn into a vibrant, standing-room-only scene. Also, check their app for happy hour exclusives—often 2-for-1 on selected cocktails from Monday to Wednesday. And if you’re gluten-free or vegan, don’t worry—their menu is clearly marked and genuinely tasty, not an afterthought.

One more tip: book a booth if you’re in a group of four or more. The upstairs mezzanine area feels like a secret treehouse, with cozy nooks that make conversations feel special. And don’t be shy about asking the bartenders for a custom cocktail—they love playing mixologist, especially if you mention a favorite spirit. Try asking for a “spicy twist” on a Paloma; you won’t regret it.

So, next time you’re on Oxford Street dodging shopping bags, make a detour. All Bar One New Oxford Street is your all-in-one solution for a productive, delicious, and sociable break. Go on, give yourself the treat of three great hours in one spot.
