At Homeboy we are all about Modern Irish Hospitality, that’s the warm welcome you would expect from any great Irish bar paired with the skill and knowledge that has seen us be nominated as one of the best cocktail bars in the world. Home comforts and delicious drinks to a soundtrack of hip-hop and RnB. Modern Irish Hospitality without the twee!! Established December 6th 2018 by Dublin born and raised Aaron Wall. Aaron with a background at the helm of award-winning bars and cocktail bars in Paris, Dublin and London, such as London Cocktail Club and Callooh Callay, brings his passion for hospitality, great guest experience and great product together to deliver a bar that embodies Modern Irish Hospitality. A local bar with an international reach. Since opening, Homeboy Bar has been critically acclaimed and most importantly become a community hub in Islington.

With a focus on celebrating Irish producers, the cocktail menu is composed of three pillars: Irish Whiskey, where the drinks showcase the versatility that once seen Irish Whiskey as the top selling spirit in the world; Contemporary, utilising modern techniques to create unashamedly delicious drinks; and Classics, paying homage to some of the modern classic cocktails of our time. And of course we are also known for serving the Best Pint of Guinness in London!!

Our Drinks Menu The Set List: Volume 1 - is a setlist for your evening starting with Disc 01: The Intro, drinks we're well known for and easy going drinks to start your night; Disc 02: The Crescendo, we dial it up with more playful drinks and rich flavours and Disc 03: The Finish, for when you've decided you'll have just one more, we suggest you finish with one of these drinks.

Homeboy’s simple food offering includes sinful snacks such as Garlic Cheese Fries and Beef Chilli Nachos, or for a more substantial meal try our Cheese Burger with our signature Spicy Mayo or an Irish classic, the Chicken Fillet Roll. Also on the menu are the homemade home comforts of Beef and Guinness Stew, served alongside Soda Bread made using Aaron's Da's recipe.

    I visited in July 2023. Came here for the first time with my wife and was not disappointed. We were met with this warm and welcoming experience, despite being a quiet late midweek afternoon, we were served with the classic Irish hospitality. The bar itself had this funky vibe with a classic hip hop twist. The drinks were really good. We decided to try something new and were recommended PEACH, which came in a dog shaped ceramic cup. The prices were reasonable and space was comfortable. We were told there was live music in the evenings.

    Was here for a friends birthday and had the best time. They had the end of the bar reserved so we had a good amount of space. The atmosphere was great and everyone (whether friends or other customers were having a great time). We had food coming out and it was delicious. Loved the curry sauce that came with the chips. The staff were great and really friendly. Watching them balance trays around busy areas were impessive. The place was super busy but service was really quick. I had margaritas all nice because they were delicious. Incredible bar, will be back.
