The Golden Bee cocktail bar by Old Street had been open for a month when in August 2012 I visited on a mild Saturday evening to find mind blowing cocktails and West End flair.    Ambience and Décor  The Golden Bee is best...

Loved the Golden Bee! The roof terrace is a must for a summers evening, great music and even better cocktails. Make sure you're dressed on the smarter side of "smart casual" though to guarantee entry... Highly recommend the blackberry and vanilla Collins! Emma visited Golden Bee on 26 May 2017

Sadly the rooftop was not accessible and so it was just like any other indoor bar. Only one bar staff at the upper level bar meant slow service. Otherwise the security was very friendly. I think it was better before the refurb personally visited Golden Bee on 26 May 2017

Had my leaving drinks here which we will never return again. Doesn't even deserve one star! Rude manager and owner who kicked us out to make way for business men in suits with an open business tab. Booked table in advance with confirmation for 5:30pm until 2am but was told to 'GET OUT' by 6:30pm. Pretentious and shallow. We all had drinks and wasn't even given the chance to finish them without the manager and owner shouting at us like mad dogs. Humiliating and money grabbing place. I advise not to go there. Even the security men informed me to not let them ruin my evening and enjoy it somewhere better. meme visited Golden Bee on 18 May 2017

Dear Ms Chan You booked a table for 10 people on the 18th May. You were directed to your table and you said you wanted to sit at another table that had been allocated for a party of 40 people. Your party was in excess of 20 people and you sat on the table that was not allocated to you. The party that had booked the table turned up and you and your party refused to vacate the table. My Manager was trying to reason with you but your party were the aggressors and refused to vacate the table. I then went onto the roof as I could see from my CCTV in my office that my Manager was having difficulties with your party. I asked you to vacate immediately and I can assure you I did not tell you to get out. In fact your party said my roof was crap and that they were finishing their drinks first before vacating the table. I told you and your party to leave the table immediately and finish your drinks at the bar as the table that had been pre booked were waiting to sit down and had been waiting for some time. I am sorry you feel you had a bad experience at Golden Bee but if you had sat at the table that was allocated to you and increased your capacity to 20 instead of booking for 10 people I am sure your leaving drinks would have gone smoothly as you would have had a larger area sufficient for 20 people.

The roof terrace at the Golden Bee was a fantastic venue with a great vibe and reasonably priced drinks. The space was really relaxed with a mix of music that saw us happily through the whole evening (if only we had better weather!).

I booked very last minute birthday drinks on the roof terrace and we had a great evening. The staff were excellent in helping to arrange the booking of both the table and the food (Sushi which was very good). Although it rained on the night, the rood cover and heat lamps ensured the evening was not impacted. We made very good use of the happy hour which saw us through most of the evening ! Would definitely visit again visited Golden Bee on 03 May 2017

We booked Guest list for rooftop and after we arrived there they didn't allow us to go on the roof top . Wasted our time visited Golden Bee on 29 Apr 2017

Reply from Golden Bee

We do not have a guest list for the roof terrace only a general admission one that unfortunately does not guarantee access to roof if you arrive and we are at full capacity. We advise all our customers to arrive as early as possible if they are not booked on the roof terrace to maximise the chances.

Celebrated a friends Hen do last Saturday at Golden Bee and it was totally fab! We had a table on the rooftop and the staff were friendly and drinks were reasonable. It was a summers day and so the rooftop was perfect for what we wanted. It didn't feel too busy and we all really enjoyed ourselves. The rooftop had only recently re-opened and we felt it was so much better than it had been previously. visited Golden Bee on 22 Apr 2017

I enjoyed a fantastic birthday booking with the Golden Bee. Gosh, Raf and all of the venue staff were extremely helpful with the planning and on the night; going above and beyond to ensure my event was a success.

Great bar, drinks itself were not that expensive. Unfortunately due to the weather I couldn't have my original booking which was outside on the roof terrace, so they rearranged a table for us instead- but the placing of the table wasn't enough for 10 people and it wasn't clear that the tables were booked so people came and sat down thinking the table was free. Other than that- We will probably come again because it was a pretty cool place. visited Golden Bee on 10 Dec 2016

I reserved an area on the rooftop and I couldn't have been happier with the setup. There was a fire pit, heaters and blankets to keep us warm as well as access to the rooftop bar. I ordered sushi canapes for the party which were delicious and came out right on time. However I was mostly impressed with the staff who were all so helpful and made sure the night ran smoothly. Would highly recommend the venue if you are keen to organize an event in Shoreditch with a great atmosphere. visited Golden Bee on 12 Nov 2016

Had a short lived, horrible time at the Golden Bee. Having booked for a party of 15 on the guest list, our party was refused entry as it wasn't a 50/50 split of males/females. Whilst a fraction of the party arrived and got in, sadly the birthday person and rest of the group was refused entry. The whole needing to have a '50/50 split' of guests was never mentioned to me upon booking (both speaking to someone over the phone or in the email confirmation from DesginMyNight). Not impressed at all. Parveen visited Golden Bee on 08 Oct 2016

Reply from Golden Bee

Parveen, My name is Billie – director of Golden Bee. I would firstly like to apologise for the bad experience you had here at Golden Bee. I was actually stood on the door when your party arrived. The first group of your party arrived with 4 guys and 2 girls. We told this group that mixed groups were essential and they told us that the next group of your booking were mixed. When the second group of your party arrived, it was around 8 guys with 2 girls. We proceeded to explain our mixed group policy to your party. No decision to your entry was decided by this point as we do make exceptions on the night. It was then however the rudeness and aggression displayed by one of your party that resulted in your party being refused entry. This one guy was wearing a long coat and had short black hair. He thought it necessary to call my doorman a “F***ing Di****ad” and a “c**t” on several occasions. This is the reason your group was denied entry. He then proceeded up the road with a few members from your group. The other members of your group then apologised on his behalf and said his behaviour was totally unnecessary. The first group of your party that had previously entered then left the venue and we kindly gave them ALL a refund on their door entry. When booking here at Golden Bee whether it’s a table booking or a guestlist you must be part of a mixed group which IS clearly stated on our website. When using the booking widget from Design My Night (which I can see from our system that you used to make your booking) on our website there is a tick box which clearly says: Booking Policy: We are an over 21's venue (ID required). Mixed groups are essential. No fancy dress (including hen do's). On Fridays and Saturdays door charges apply to everyone after 9pm. I confirm I have read this booking policy For your reservation to be confirmed you HAVE to tick this box. However as stated before we do make exceptions on the night however I experienced first-hand the real reason for the second group of your party being refused entry.

I booked a few tables on the rooftop terrace for a work social event. I had a lot of great feedback from my group. They loved it! At one point it rained and we had to go downstairs for a little while. The manager was very professional, accommodating and reassuring and all the staff were friendly. The rain let up and we were back on the roof top terrace all night. Very warm and great and atmosphere. Thank you so much for such an amazing night!

Lovely bar for a warm evenings drinks on the rooftop. If you are ordering drinks and planning to go onto the roof, best to order drinks up there otherwise you have to change your glasses to plastic ones.

Thank you for your comment! Sorry you didn't have a good experience here at Golden Bee. According to our CCTV your group have arrived at quarter past nine and as it states in your confirmation email charges apply to everyone after 9pm sharp. We do allow our guest to enter free of charge form as early as 5pm until 9pm. Unfortunately rules and charges apply to everyone and it would not be fair to 17 people arriving before you that have paid the fee. We hope you have a better time when you visit us again!

We were celebrating our friend getting married and booked a table for 10 people in the bar area on Saturday 2nd July. when we arrived it was still a bit too early for dancing downstairs so we asked to be allowed on the rooftop for a few drinks in the sun. the rooftop was brilliant: not big but the atmosphere was absolutely amazing!!! after a few drinks we moved back to our table and spent the rest of the night dancing our feet off. it was a great night out, the music was perfect and the drinks not too overpriced! we all had so much fun. we will be back!

I celebrated my 40th birthday here last Saturday night (2/7/16) and I was blown away. The roof terrace is stunning, the service was immaculate, the likes of which I have not experienced in London for a long time. The prices are really reasonable, the atmosphere was great, they even gave me little heel protectors when they got caught in their decking. So nice to see service with a smile in East London. Currently looking for an excuse to go back if anyone wants to invite me!! Julia visited Golden Bee on 02 Jul 2016

I visited for my husbands birthday we came down from Newcastle unsure what to expect as there is mixed feed back. Have to tackle the reviews that state the bar is pretentious. I never found that in fact the opposite different people young, old and indifferent all chatting having a good time. We booked on to the guest list and was quiet when we got there around 2 it did become very busy but we had a seat. Drinks reasonably priced and great atmosphere . think you should get yr self there and try it for your self don't be put off by negativity we will most certainly be back soon calmityjayne1909 visited Golden Bee on 02 Jul 2016

I booked a table on the rooftop here for my birthday the other week and had a lovely time! Door staff were friendly, and despite me exceeding the number I'd booked for, they allowed everyone up. Delicious and reasonably priced drinks as well. Thanks for making my 30th birthday a memorable one! Lauren visited Golden Bee on 18 Jun 2016

We booked an area on the rooftop terrace for a joint birthday celebration and were not disappointed. Brilliant location, great atmosphere, good bar staff. The queue at the rooftop terrace bar can be quite long and the terrace is crowded but this should all be expected for this kind of location. The drinks were very reasonably priced during happy hour (which ran until 8pm). After that normal prices resumed which were still relatively well priced (although not excellent). The security staff let the staffing side down slightly and some of our guests found them to be quite rude. We were happy overall with our trip and will definitely be returning at some point. spanna3 visited Golden Bee on 19 May 2016

Cheap and tacky. Plastic bottles and glasses with pig ignorant door staff at 5 on a Saturday evening suggest a loose and rough crowd are usually expected. Zero class to the place. Jasper visited Golden Bee on 07 May 2016

Best rooftop terrace of East London! Their staff is amazing, and really helpful. I had my birthday organised there last Friday and it was lovely. We also organised a corporate event last Christmas and it was perfectly handled from start to end. I would definitely recommend this venue for any kind of event!

I needed to find a place to host my birthday, with capacity for up to 40 people. Golden Bee staff were super friendly and helpful and offered the roof top bar to book. The venue is stylish, friendly staff, and excellent ambience to create a great night. The drinks were great and the music/décor was suburb. Would totally recommend this place for having a sophisticated/chilled/fun night out! Darren visited Golden Bee on 16 Jan 2016

Excellent night out on an excellent bar/roof top bar. A group of 10 of us celebrated my wife's birthday. I contacted Golden Bee and Gosh was extremely helpful in helping me to book and make arrangements for the number of people that are coming and for a surprise birthday cake. On the night, everyone was polite and very helpful. The drinks were great. The place was amazing (music, decor). Highly recommended. 1aml3g3nd visited Golden Bee on 19 Dec 2015

Reserved the VIP area for a joint 30th birthday for my wife and I. Organiser was great as we had to chop and change numbers/dates and I generally ask a lot of questions that were always well answered! On the night I would have liked to have someone show us our area and make sure guests were welcomed in, but apart from that the staff and team were very accommodating as we had cakes that needed storing and setting up. We ended up spending a small fortune on champagne alone so it would have been nice to have been comp'd a round of shots as other places do when spending a significant amount on bottles, but we had a great night none the less. vishal31 visited Golden Bee on 28 Nov 2015

Reserved a table here for my birthday. Had a great time! Organizer was extremely adaptive, as I called back 3 times to increase the number of people and was no problem to change. Sushi was nice. Lychee Rose Martini was one of the best cocktails I've ever had. Bartenders were friendly and helpful, so were the bouncers, surprisingly. The roof terrace was the best part of the venue, heaters and blankets kept us warm. sezseb visited Golden Bee on 20 Nov 2015

Good place, nice cocktails and good atmosphere. Make sure you book for the rooftop on Friday nights. They wouldn't let anyone up there unless you had already booked a table - guestlist doesn't make any difference! A little disappointing for us, but will hopefully manage to book in future! rsaigol visited Golden Bee on 25 Sep 2015

What a great bar! I celebrated my birthday there recently. The staff were friendly, helpful and very efficient. Music was great and although the bar was full it wasn't too packed so we had room to dance and get served at the bar fairly quickly without a massive queue. I definitely would recommend this bar if you want a great night out in town without having to go to a club.

Had my birthday here on a saturday night with a group of 30 people. Was a bit apprehensive when I heard it was commercial house music on a saturday. But we ended up having a great night here and loved the music!! Very lively and a fun crowd. Would love to go back when the roof terrace is open.

I have my 30th birthday here - this was the after party to drinks at the Crown & Shuttle (highly recommended) in the beer garden. Although the Golden Bee couldn't get me an area for my friends on the roof or a table inside, they did offer me a guest list for 20 people and there was no queue to get in. My friends really enjoyed the music. We arrived at 10.30pm and it wasn't too busy, Stayed for a couple of hours and enjoyed the vibe and music. I would definitely go back but would book more in advance to get up on the roof (which closes at 11pm).

Went here for my friends birthday. We were seated in the rooftop area, I'm assuming they had a booking as others were moved from neighbouring tables. It's a nice place and when the rooftop area is closed, most people just carry on partying downstairs!

We pre-booked some drinks, which weren't there when we arrived, but that was quickly rectified by the bar staff. The manager kindly listened to us and gave us free prosecco.

Sure, the views out from the rooftop aren't spectacular (unless you're a fan of Old Street roundabout) but there's still a really cool atmosphere up there which makes it a great palce for after work drinks. Get a bucket of beers and take advantage of the great weather while you can - there's heating for when it gets a bit chillier later and then you can dance downstairs.

Impressive bar/club venue. Went as a group of 4 and was impressed by the place. Having previously visited the roof garden was abit disappointed to not be allowed up there without a booking but the area below is open and nice to chat the breeze in the summer. Drink service at the bar was well staffed and drinks were always relatively quick to get, fortunately. All staff were pretty friendly, the only improvement could be music. Didn't love the assortment of house for 5-6 hours, perhaps a bit more hip/hop, reggae, and funk to get down to. Otherwise a great experience.

Golden Bee is one of the best rooftop bars in London. Amazing value for money during happy hour. Great music, great crowd, great layout. Would recommend here for anyone planning a party. Just make sure you book in advance or you will end up disappointed.

Iv been to the Golden Bee a couple of time's now and I have to say it's atmosphere is absolutely buzzing!!. I love the diversity of the age group. The staff are extremely friendly and very helpful and most of all the owner Denise is extremely lovely and friendly women. The music is banging and the terrace view is beautiful and the cocktails are top nosh!!!! I had an amazing time here and I highly recommend all to visit. It's defiantly worth while visiting, Great night for the girl's and lad's to let there hair down. There's no hesitation we will definitely be back!. Thanks Golden Bee for a great night out.

My son invited me to this bar for his birthday drinks and I felt I was too old to attend so I was a bit apprehensive. I felt totally at ease and the doormen were great and I had a bit of banter with them on the door when entering. The roof was amazing and then we went downstairs where there was a bar and another terrace where we could smoke. No draft beer but bottled only was the only downside for me. Apart from that the venue and the staff were very friendly and I would recommend this venue.

I had a fabulous nite on Saturday with my friends. We had a table on the roof next to the fire pit and the cocktails were amazing and well priced at around £7 per drink. The staff were very friendly and the manager accommodated us even though there were more than I originally booked for. Will definitely return and book a table early as I think it will be rammed nearer the hot weather.

Dont try to call the venue after 6pm as nobody will answer the phone!! Booked an area for 10-15 people which was not suitable. Bar staff were rude and drinks were overpriced. Paid a £50 deposit to secure the table which was supposed to go behind the bar for my group but i had to remind each member of staff about it each time i ordered a drink. The bar is also above a pole dancing venue which was quite embarrassing as this was a surprise birthday celebration for my older brother so that would have stopped me from booking if i had known. Positives were very nice doormen and a stunning venue. Management should be aware that the cocky barmen and the very arrogant female bartender will prevent people from returning to the venue and give the golden bee a bad name. I certainly would not recommend this place!!!

For my first time at Golden Bee, me and a group of friends really enjoyed the vibe, the choice of room, layout, the drinks and the music too. We thought it was a great place to start off your evening and possibly even finish it there depending on your night. I think the rooftop terrace would be a great chillout spot in the summer season and cannot wait to try then too. As a winter experience, the firepit on the terrace was a great luxury and really added character to the place.

Had a really good time here and was lucky enough to experience the rooftop glory on a later summers day. It was heaving with people but having reserved a table, this didn't bother me. Overall a cool rooftop bar worth checking out.

Difficult review to write as I've had good times here but I don't think it's down to the venue. The toilets were constantly wet so even slight heels were like walking on ice... Drinks are good, but a little overt priced with quality. First time I came here we were supposed to have the roof terrace but it rained so we were told to go the smoking area instead which was horrible... Second time we were allowed on the terrace but that was a confusing experience trying to get up there and all the seating was reserved and the bar stuff kept smacking into us. A good bar, but I wouldn't go back unless I needed to.

Nice roof bar at the very top, more average bar on the first floor. Bouncers were thugs, aggressive and looking for a fight. This may reflect the crowd who frequent Golden Bee. Not a friendly place.
21 Jun 2014 by

Excellent night with great music. Yes, there was a fight - but the guy who the bouncers took outside was really asking for it. He has been harassing girls all night. Most people were glad he was removed. Stayed till the end. Brilliant!

We visited Golden Bee on Saturday for late night drinks. It may have been an oversight on our part but I had no idea that the roof terrace closes at 11pm. We arrived at exactly 11pm and the club was rammed with people that had headed down from the terrace. We paid £15 for two G&T's and crammed into a corner of the smoking area. Within twenty minutes a fight broke out between a customer and a bouncer, we watched a huge bouncer continuously punch a guy until the fight was moved outside. I've seen tons of fights in clubs but none as bad as this. A girl next to us had her foot cut open by flying glasses. I have read reviews of Golden Bee and reports of violent and aggressive bouncers and our experience only confirmed this. We left after an hour. It may be different in the daytime when the terrace is open but not sure I will be visiting again.

Staff at Golden bee before my big night have been very helpful , friendly and accommodation. I planned a night out with friends for my 31st and decided to cancel due to thunderstorm. But on the day itself (Saturday) the typical British weather was beautiful therefore called up again to ask if I can re book and they where absolutely fine. Get there early to avoid a queue. We had one more person on out guest list but they wouldn't let him in but had to queue. Very packed. No space to move. So best to hVe an area booked if your going to be staying there all night. Had a birthday gift which understandably the bouncers took off me but when it came to giving it back another Bouncer was unnecessarily rude. Over all had a pleasant experience and a fantastic night. Would defiantly go there again.

We all had a good night but make sure you book the rooftop in advance! The rooftop closes at 11pm so make sure you get there early! I personally found the downstairs bar area quite small but we were lucky with the warm weather and being able to go outside - the prices weren't too bad for drinks either, but this website needs to update the entry fees for the Golden Bee bar...!! I would definitely go again though :)

Great bar, the roof top is the best feature of this bar (you'll need to book in advance) didnt rate the DJ and the door staff were a little off for my liking but other then that it was a great night. Once the roof top floor gets closed it gets very busy and can take a while to get to the bar for a drink. Worth a visit.

Made a guest list reservation for my birthday drinks and loved it! The venue was lovely and enjoyed spending some time on the roof terrace. Unfortunately on the night the weather wasn't great, so had to spend most of my night inside the bar. However this didn't take away from the brilliant time which was had by all. Really liked the selection of house music played too.....would definitely recommend a visit to anyone who is thinking of going xx

great late night party venue, we stumbled across this place on our way through old street and couldn't resisting joining everyone on the terrace - you can see for miles! drank a couple of cocktails, danced A LOT. all in all, a good party place.

Smaller than we expected which didn't leave much room for dancing. Was reasonably priced with a great smoking area, although the upper roof terrace was shut. Bar tender were really cool and the cocktails had a great range and were really good. Try the pornstar!

A fantastic new venue – and the rooftop terrace is a very welcome addition in an area badly in need of decent open air space that doesn't mostly involve standing in the street, dodging cars and passers-by. We held our annual summer party here and despite having been open for less than a fortnight, they did a sterling job. “Best party yet” all our staff exclaimed! Food was great, drinks were strong (just the way we like them!) and the staff were friendly and couldn't do enough for us. If they keep up these efforts it will quickly become, and remain, the go-to bar in the City. Thanks everyone at Golden Bee!
