The Piano Works Covent Garden

The Piano Works bars and restaurants in London provide a refreshing twist to live music entertainment, letting the audience choose the songs that are played and craft a unique playlist every night.

Billed as “London's only non-stop audience-led live music restaurants and bars”, The Piano Works are also one of the largest employers of independent musicians in the country. The highly skilled professionals boast not just talent but also an exhaustive repertoire of popular tracks, evergreen favourites, the latest hits and anything else you might want to hear. Request slips are available for you to write your choice on, and if you want to skip ahead of other guests in the queue, you can leave a tip.

Along with the entertaining spin on live music and DJ requests, The Piano Works serve dinner and drinks, with an assortment of culinary favourites such as burrata, tuna steak or pork ribs to choose from. Set menus, including pre-theatre options, are available at the West End branch, and classic brunch options are served on Saturdays as well. Drinks span a broad range of classic and inventive cocktails, as well as fine wine, spirits, beer and other tipples. The latter come in especially handy after dinner at The Piano Works in Covent Garden, as the location has a pronouncedly clubby vibe, with the dance floor going strong late into the night.
