QuecumBar & Brasserie, Le Reviews

I went along for the 6th birthday anniversary with John Etheridge and Ritary heading up the musical line up. What a tableau both to the ear and the eyes; up to eight guitarists, double bass and violin all driving along the Jango road of Gypsy swing music with individual virtuoso performances intertwined. Wonderful venue, atmosphere and people! Well done Sylvie.

I recently visited Le QuecumBar with some friends of mine after hearing rave reviews about it. I can honestly say I was not at all disappointed. The ambience was electric, I really did not know what to expect as I was not too sure what gypsy jazz was, but it was like being transported into the heart of Paris. The decor was gorgeous and the food and wine were excellent. We all had a wonderful time and have booked to go back on Saturday evening for my friend's birthday. I have come across nothing else like this venue in London and it’s so good to see live music still being played. Well done Le QuecumBar, keep up the good work.

My partner and I went along to Quecumbar on a weekday night, having heard about it from a Jazz loving work colleague. We arrived about 7.30 so there was no cover charge but didn't know what to expect. We had the best night out in an absolute age. The staff were very friendly and efficient. We loved the thirty’s atmosphere. I am not mad about Jazz but the guy playing swing and blues on the piano just transported us. It felt very elegant and special and we were both surprised at what a difference live music makes especially played by someone with talent. There is not enough of that around London, the next time we go I am going to dress up a bit - just for the fun. We ate there as well and the food was of a good standard, well prepared and tasty. I think it could be an even better experience for a group of friends, although I did meet a couple of very interesting people - the place seemed full of them.
