Review: Barrio Shoreditch

After a hard day of work, I was looking forward to venturing into Shoreditch to Barrio for their ‘Just A Little Samba’ event. From the second we walked into this venue, it was easy to see Barrio Shoreditch is extremely popular. The place was packed! While we’d headed to the venue purely to see the talented Taste of Brazil Dancers and dance the night away to tunes supplied by talented DJs, we also chose to indulge in some food and cocktails.

Tacos, sweet potato fries and Nachos were our food of choice and we weren’t disappointed. Spicy, fresh and full of flavour, the food didn’t last long on our plates. The new Christmas cocktail menu sounded delicious and as I’ve said before I can’t say no to a good happy hour. Two cocktails for £10! Bargain! Tequila is not always my friend on a night out but oh my, the El Grincho deserves a massive shout out! The creator of this cocktail gets a high five from me. My friend really enjoyed the Snowconut too.

While waiting for the Little Samba event to start, my friend and I took a little tour of Barrio Shoreditch. The venue is huge and just plain cool. I’m assuming this is why there appeared to be a large number of Christmas functions happening this night. Everyone looked like they were having lots of fun and as soon as the tables were cleared, the dancing began. The Taste of Brazil girls were AMAZING! Those girls can move!! Sign me up for lessons!  While security tried to hold party goers back so the girls could strut their stuff, they were having none of it. They grabbed people off the floor and encouraged them to dance along with them. It was a lot of fun.

Make sure you check out Barrio Shoreditch for your next night out. You won’t regret it.
