135 Bar & Lounge

Tucked away on Cambridge Heath Road, 135 Bar & Lounge is one of Bethnal Green’s hidden gems, inspired by our Swedish owner’s Nordic roots. Our mixologists are experts in their field, crafting some of the finest cocktails in Bethnal Green with artisanal spirits, hand-foraged botanicals, and seasonal produce, responsibly sourced from around the world. Alongside seasonal twists on classic cocktails, you’ll find a bespoke list of boutique wines, craft beers and ciders, along with a dynamic backbar featuring rare and distinctive spirits from across the world. Food follows the same philosophy—thoughtful Nordic-European small plates and sharing boards designed for social dining. From Gravad Lax and Smørrebrød to cheese boards, vegan and vegetarian options, every dish is rooted in quality and sustainability. By night, the lounge comes alive with music. Our curated vinyl collection, resident DJs, and live sessions span soul, funk, disco, jazz, and world music – all played through a rich, intimate, and environmental sound system designed for listening.
