About Rhum Tavern

Rhum Tavern is a nautical cocktail bar on Margaret St in London, near Oxford Circus, styled as a pirate ship with a Goonies theme. Barrels line the walls alongside drapes and memorabilia, and an 80s rock playlist runs through the room. The drinks list draws on films, with cocktails inspired by The Goonies and Pirates of the Caribbean, including Dead Men Tell No Tales. Seats at the bar let guests watch drinks being made. The food menu adds rum ribs and corn ribs. The bar opens daily, evenings only. Even the lavatory follows the theme, with skull toilets.

Customer Review Summary

Cocktails draw the most praise, and Dead Men Tell No Tales is the one reviewers name as a favourite, with one calling it a must try. Drinks are described as imaginative, strong and tasty. The menu includes serves inspired by The Goonies and Pirates of the Caribbean, though one reviewer notes a regular martini is available just by asking. A daiquiri and a Chester Copperpot also get a mention. Close behind is the staff, described again and again as warm, welcoming and friendly. Several reviewers say a particular host or bartender made the evening, and one who sat at the bar enjoyed watching the drinks being made. Food gets less attention, but the rum ribs that fall off the bone and the corn ribs are singled out as really good. Reviewers also enjoy the nautical, Goonies-loving decor of barrels, drapes and soft lighting, the 80s rock playlist, and a terrarium-making masterclass. Several finish on the skull toilets as a surprise.

    “I had the best experience for our date night at Rhum Tavern this week! The cocktails were 10/10…my favourite definitely had to be ‘deadmen tell no tales’ which is a must try! My boyfriend and I also really enjoyed the ribs! We sat at the bar, which was a great experience seeing all of the drinks being made and service from Patrick was incredible. His enthusiasm really made our experience! Will definitely be going back here.”

    “What a gorgeous spot. The decor is amazing and so carefully thought out! From the barrels on the walls to the skull toilets. Loved the 80s rock playlist, it really added to the overall vibe! The cocktails are imaginative, tasty and amazing to look at! The food we had was outstanding. I am currently obsessed with corn ribs and had a portion - they were really good! And the rum ribs fell off the bone! Can’t wait to go back!”
