Within walking distance from Upper Street and Cross Street, The Embassy Bar remains popular with the party hoppers, friends or colleagues keen on catching up on an after-works drink. A frantic atmosphere is guaranteed on weekends at the downstairs lounge, with pulsating dance tunes and DJs spinning a blend of soul, funk, hip-hop and house.

The menu revolves mostly around pizzas, from the classic margharita to the pepperoni, jalapeño and chorizo version, but the drinks line up is worth noting. The wine list offers plenty of choice by the glass from the plummy red Eguren Epico Tempranillo 2004 to the citrusy Domaine Montrose Rose Vin de Pays; there's even the highly-esteemed Dom Pérignon available by the well-chilled bottle. The cocktail section reveals a lemon meringue martini, raspberry mojito and berry delicious.

The Embassy Bar's diary of events includes live music slots for both up and coming and established artists.
