Upper House Islington

I recently threw my wife a baby shower in the drawing room and it went really well. Emily was really helpful during planning, and everything was prepared as discussed before. The bartender we had dedicated to the room was a star. She was super helpful and readily avalable to take orders. The food was amazing, we mostly enjoyed the chicken and waffles. Prices are reasonable and location is convenient as well.

Parking was available down the road, and street parking on the side roads after 1:30pm.

Will return just for the food!

A very interesting place, with a bit of a dark decor. It is kinda unique! That particular day we were with a friend in a place near by, we had some horrible cocktails and we were quite disappointed. And then we thought that this place looked interested, and we went in. We were a bit sceptical... But then we ordered mojito and this amazing dead rum punch (photo is added). The bartender is AMAZING, he was so focused, so perfectionist. He was not just making drinks, he was making art! He was adding different drops of different liquids, those are not your typical cocktails, those are next level! I am amazed! I am gonna go back just to watch him! Really it is worth to go only for the cocktails! It's an experience! I have told about that place to all my friends and acquaintances! Just go and you will love it! Try the dead rum punch!

🐾DOG FRIENDLY & FABULOUS 🐾
Upper House is our favourite place to Brunch, Sunday roast and hang out on a school night! They have a great pub quiz every Wednesday where they offer a delicious burger meal which includes fries and an alcoholic drink for a tenner and their weekend bottomless brunches are 👌🏽The staff are friendly and welcoming to all hooman & furbabies 🍼🐶

We had christmas party there. It's a great place, really nice staff, but not a great selection of beer. We were at the top floor.

Friendly service. Comfortable environment. Brunch was filling and very very very tasty.

We hosted our engagement party here in The Library and everything was perfect. The room was the perfect size for our drinks and our bartender Nadine was excellent! She was very personable, made great drinks and nothing was too much of an ask. Emily was so helpful with the entire booking process from start to finish. We had great communication from her throughout. The door staff were also great, they were friendly and we had no issues at all with our guests getting in. Would definitely recommend this space for a private event!

We put my wedding dinner in their hands and they were absolutely incredible. Service was quick, accurate, and delicious. Could have literally no complaints.

The house is also beautifully decorated. Really stylish and looks great in photos.

100% would recommend.

I came to The Dead Dolls House with 11 friends, and I'm more than impressed. We were seated straight away, our drinks arrived promptly and service was great. Staff were considerate and friendly and everyone enjoyed their Sunday roast. Compliments to the chef! Will definitely return. I highly reccomend this trendy restaurant and bar to students like myself looking for a fun/chill evening out.

We hired the Ballroom pretty last minute for our office's summer party. Nadine was great at helping me organise it and explaining everything to me. They were very flexible with our various dietary requirements and also with how we paid for the event, they were able to adjust to suit our processes which meant that we were actually able to go ahead with the event.

I had been worried the food might not be enough for everyone but it definitely was, everybody also thought the food was delicious. The staff on the night were very helpful and went out of their way to make sure our night went well and everyone had fun and this was definitely noticed and appreciated amongst staff.

Everybody said they had an amazing time and they loved the venue and food, I can't recommend this venue enough.

My eldest son had his wedding reception here. The food was excellent and plentiful. Service professional, timely and friendly.
The room was beautifully decorated and a fantastic time was had by all. Just be aware that converted town houses have steep stairs!

I thought best to write a review as we almost didn't go here because it has quite mixed reviews. We did the bottomless brunch for £20pp and it was definitely good value for money. Quick, polite contact via email with the restaurant whilst booking, friendly staff, cool decor inside. The offer meant you could pick one main and a side and one bottomless cocktail for £20. I saw past reviews saying the food was average - the food is actually really good. The chicken and waffles was amazing as well as the fish burger; I got two patties of fish in a bun when they could easily give me one. Mushy peas were terrible however but tartar sauce was good. Almost had a hiccup at the end when we started to be ignored when we were half an hour before our 2 hours were up, and our glasses were clearly empty. My friend went up to the bar as we had been waiting 10 mins and the waiter said 'I'll just check'...I'll just check what exactly..we then caught another waiter who gave us not one but two more bottles of mimosa and we were allowed to stay after our 2 hours, so he saved it! Would recommend!

We recently hired The Ballroom at Upper House for a corporate leaving party on a Friday evening. The venue was perfect - intimate and buzzy at the bar but with enough tables and seating to be able to network too. The food was delicious, and praised by many guests. All of the staff were extremely helpful throughout the entire process from my initial enquiry until the end of the night. Thank you for having us, will definitely recommend to colleagues.

A friend and I had our birthday party at the Drawing Room and it couldn't have gone better - the venue management was extremely friendly and accommodating throughout the entire organisational process, as well as on the actual night itself. All of our requests were met without any problems, staff at the door and behind the bar were very friendly and competent as well. We will definitely be returning to this venue, we had a great night!

I booked the Drawing Room for a private party, the team from start to finish were great. Booking the room was easy and Emily was super helpful. The team on the night were great, there when we needed them. I couldn't have asked for a better night (well a bit cooler would have been nice!). I would definitely recommend for a special occasion.

A really relaxed and cosy environment, the staff is very friendly and welcoming.
They also have an amazing happy hour, a d it is on also on Saturday , which us very rare!
The atmosphere is nice and late in the evening there is a DJ as well.
We also had food and portions were really generous!
An absolute YES!

We had our wedding reception here and it was the perfect venue for us! The staff were attentive, helpful and friendly throughout the planning process and on the day itself. The Ballroom was perfectly presented and everything ran smoothly. Would very much recommend for a London venue! Really loved having our day here. Thanks so much!

After a quick viewing I booked the Ballroom for my 30th on a Saturday night. The night was brilliant - staff in the run up to the event were great, I had several requests and they helped suggest plans for the night. Food, music and drinks were great - especially the cocktails for a private bar. a huge thank you to management and the staff on the day, everyone was helpful and made the night brilliant!

Came for bottomless brunch and had a great time! Service was great and prompt (we came for the last slot at 3pm). The food was excellent - I had the sweet potato hash stack. Everything was great value as well - will come back!

Hosted a Wedding Reception at The Dead Dolls House few weeks ago and everything went absolutely amazing. Food was great including excellent vegetarian options and the staff was superb. I would like to leave a huge thanks to Emily who helped us with the organisation and certainly contributed to make our Reception a very special occasion. Highly recommend this venue

Couldn't rate this restaurant/bar enough. The food was excellent, if you are carnivorous or vegetarian they cater for all your needs. The ambience was cozy and kitsch and the service was impeccable. Angela tended to all our questions and requirements. Definitely worth a visit. I will definitely be returning 😁
