Great atmosphere and a good bit of fun. Not the cheapest cocktail bar but given the location reasonably priced. Really fun atmosphere and they’re competent with drinks on and off their menu. The nibbles are full of flavour and reasonably portioned. The escape room looks like great fun too. Definitely coming back, probably with more company.

We completed the escape rooms as a couple. This was a great experience really fun and the hosts were really in character and engaging. 2 cocktails include great value for money.

A great experience at Control Room B and the associated escape room experience. The welcome cocktails and selection made available during the experience were fantastic and the game was challenging and enjoyable. Special mention to our hosts Sophia and Romer who were fantastic! If you’re planning on coming here make sure you do try book the experience, lots of “drinks only” customers had the look of FOMO on their faces!

Fabulous cocktails, all tasty and well-presented (keep an eye out for the one in a mini Battersea power station mug). Both our waitress Sophia and the manager gave us and our little doggie such a warm welcome, we decided to try the audio tour. Highly recommended and great fun all around!

This is the most adorable cocktail bar I’ve ever seen. It has a vintage power plant vibe, gave me fallout videogame/tv show vibes. I’m obsessed with the menu which looks like rolled up blueprints in a tube, the staff are all wearing jumpsuits and it’s just the best vibe! We ordered a Battersea Power Plant which is a signature cocktail for 2 served in a ceramic miniature of the power plant. The drink was sweet and fruity and so good! We also ordered rosemary mixed nuts and stuffed peppers and both were great bar snacks. This is definitely a cocktail bar I’d go back when I’m in the area. In fact it was such a fun place with good drinks I’d go out of my way when in London to have drinks here!

First visit to Battersea Power Station and this bar. Extremely interesting preserved control room from the days of it being an operational Power Station. 10:30am was too early for cocktails so we just had cider!
