The Hoxton Pony

Love this place - it's the epitome of everything that's right with Hoxton these days. At first I was reluctant to go to the bar for a friends birthday but I was proved wrong by my fears and had the best night out.

Even though East London recently has been flooded with the 'lads on tour' variety of visits, there were none whatsoever to be seen in The Hoxton Pony. In fact, they were all very well-mannered lads and really sexy girls.

I've been to over clubs where you leave and there's people swaggering down the street, drinking and snarling - yet this is the most politest bunch I've ever encountered when drunk.

The neon blue and purple lights were a perfect touch for all the girls who had spent the time to get dressed up. Everyone looked fantastic, walking around looking like part-time models and film-stars.

The Hoxton Pony is the ideal place to take the 'glamour' of the West End yet without the headache you usually have to endure. The idea of bottle service is great, especially if you're in a group who want to sit and catch up first before a dance.

Music wise was great. There was no Taio Cruz, no Pussycat Dolls, and definitely no David Guetta! Thank God!

I wish they'd paid me to come here!

Came to the Hoxton Pony for a bite to eat and a few drinks with an old friend. We had a starter/snack each and were very impressed with the food, ended up both ordering a main course afterwards, washed down with a few beers. Went for the Pork Belly sandwich and it was delicious, my friend had the burger and was equally happy!! Highly impressed to have such a standard of food alongside being a great cocktail bar and club. Definitely worth having a meal and a drink here, I'll certainly be coming back! 4/5

My friends and I went to the Hoxton Pony for NYE and we weren't disappointed at all, moreover we were very much impressed and satisfied with hospitality this club offers. It was definitely the best place to be that night. Food and drinks were amazing, music played there was fabulous, friendly and attentive staff was around. Thank you the Hoxton Pony for being so amazing!

The Hoxton pony is a very cool bar-club with the best design. I love going there with my friends and just alone. You will never feel there alone anyway, because all people there are very friendly and you meet someone new and interesting every time. Huge choice of yummy cocktails doesn't give you a chance to stay sober :)

I found the Hoxton Pony by chance this weekend looking for a place to spend the evening. honestly I'm too happy to have found this place. A really stylish atmosphere (special mention for the birds behind the bar). The team is just great and make you go funny moments. The cocktails are good too and we're never too tired to drink another and another.

I have already booked to return in a month and I am more than ready.

Thanks to the Hoxton Pony i had the most amazing 21st birthday! I booked a table for about 10 people and we all got a queue jump when we arrived!

The gorgeous waitress sarah escorted us to our seat right by the dj boothe and took an amazing care of us, we couldn't have enough of the amazing cocktails the venue had to offer and made my night soo special.

Also to top things off there was a night in there on the friday called Birthday party where everyone come and celebrate whether it is their birthday or not. It had a flamboyant host and the music was just to die for and the crowd just looked like they were having the blast of their life!

I have got to admit i don't usually fall for places like that but after having such a great time there, my friends and i have gone and bought tickets to go back there new years eve and can't freaking wait!

I went to the Hoxton Pony last Saturday and it just rocks. Music was amazing and it was my best mate's birthday, we treated her with Infusion jars and that was just great. We all loved it had to order more of those. They look amazing and we felt special, tasted like heaven, we got so pissed because we just couldn't stop drinking them... not into glasses but ........... teacups how funny!!!!

The waitress who looked after us was great, nothing to say, always there when we needed, we even be shown to the table on arrival, you know what... I WILL BE BACK

Thumbs up!!!

I went to the Hoxton Pony last weekend and decided to book a tea party. I had read the reviews on here and was a little bit worried but I thought they may be better now!

I went and they had our table ready for us, all the food was brought out on little tea stands and the infusion jars were pre made and the tea cups were soooooo cute!!!

I had a really good time and enjoyed the tea party so much, and so did all my other girly friends.

The music was really good and the service from staff was brilliant.

Will be going back soon :)
