About this restaurant

  • Great for live music
  • Lively
  • Neighborhood gem
“A stones throw away from Dalston Kingsland Station you will find The Dalston Jazz Bar. It’s a full on restaurant up until 10 PM. They serve an array of fresh seafood as well as yummy beer from a local brewery and cocktails. The live band plays throughout the night with a few breaks. After 10 PM they clear all tables and chairs to create a dance floor and this place then really starts to rock! We don't do vegan or vegetarian food. We specialize in fish. Tuesdays are our LGBTQ night, but everyone is welcome. Tuesdays will now feature live jazz bands."

    very fun, but make sure you go with people who all like fish because you don’t get to choose your courses

    What an amazing place! Food was lovely, all seafood! The atmosphere is great, but impossible to talk as really loud with live music right next to you. Exceptional service and an overall cool concept with paying what you think it's worth.

    don’t book here if you’re a vegetarian. their menu online states that veggie options are available but i had a friend tell me to email ahead as when she went for food there they told her that she should’ve emailed in advance so they could prepare options for her (which isn’t stated online). i emailed to check and was told there were no available options for me so i had to cancel my valentine’s day meal last minute. i wouldn’t be annoyed by this if it hadn’t been stated online that there were available options for me

    Genuinely one of the BEST experiences at any restaurant/experience I’ve had in a long time. Excellent staff going well above the bar to please and the jazz band were absolutely excellent. Major ambience, major vibe. Will definitely be back and recommend this to anyone who is considering coming.

    What an incredible experience. Amazing live jazz band, intimate setting, fresh seafood (including oysters)! It feels like a local treasure and I’m so glad I found this spot. I’ll be returning soon.
