So someone does the courtesy of calling you back on an enquiry, you refuse to find a quiet corner to take their call, and they're at fault for your rudeness? Franke Lambe got one fact right at least, sheesh.

Not been in a while, my girlfriend won't allow it as we first hooked up there and she was the last in a lucky streak I only ever seemed to enjoy inside this place. Must be the low lighting. Glad it's still going strong as it was one venue where even the bouncers took the time to treat you as an individual not a cash cow.

Went there for the first time in about 3 years, and all I can say is its still one of the best places in Islington by a mile. The bar has had a lick of paint and there’s a downstairs which I can’t remember from before. The music was good and the beer price was average. The next time I’m in north London I see you there.

I visited the embassy on Saturday night and had one of the best nights out for a long time. It was a friends birthday and the staff couldn't have been more helpful!!

Everything from the drinks, the atmosphere, the friendly staff - special mention to Frank who was fantastic - and even the DJ was superb, and really made for a good night out!!!

Without doubt, if you visit this venue, you won't be disapointed

“I have not had the misfortune of visitng this establishment but would like to let you know how I got on when attempting to reserve an area. I sent an email to Embassy (along with several other bars) to check availability for my birthday. I received a phone call from the "Director" Franke Lambe who I could barely understand / hear on the telephone because of the volume of noise in my office. I had to ask a couple of times where he was calling from, obviously having enquired at a few venues I wanted to be sure who I was speaking with! Anyway, after tiring of his aggresive tone and general rudeness I said "Don't worry about the enquiry thank you" to which he responded "Get your facts straight you stupid b1tch" and hung up. Nice! Wonderful customer service... I certainly won't be visiting this bar and will be telling everyone I know not to either.”
