When we first went to ching a lings, we were surprised how dead it was just our group and a few in the bar. but when we went on, we realized that the party was outside and we were only there at 930 o'clock. waffel fries with aioli $10) long inseln great service at the bar and a hyped atmosphere. Unfortunately, the waffelfries we had ordered lasted so long and we had to go to the bar to remind them, but the bartender was so accredited and apologised, even gave us “Vakzine” dishes as an apology. yet good moods and a good bar to get to the oxford street.

Drinks are kept fairly basic with spirits, champagne, beers of all sorts, including long necks, plus a few wines. The limited choices at the bar means that the turnover is quick, even when Ching-a-lings packs out: and this will happen. As the crowd grows, expect a number of people to start dancing in front of the DJ area at the end of the bar. Yes, it is a small bar with a dance area.

Blink and you'll miss the small doorway entrance to this funky little small bar on Oxford Street, not via Little Oxford Street anymore, which has only been open (or is that reopened) for 2 weeks. Nice feature lighting including a cage full of light bulbs
