Control Room B

Embark on Retro Cocktails and Adventures!

Nestled within the iconic Battersea Power Station, Control Room B offers a retro-chic escape that skates gracefully between being an inventive cocktail venue and an exhilarating escape room experience. The bar’s decor, replete with original control panels and enigmatic machinery, nostalgically evokes a bygone industrial era while serving as a vibrant backdrop for social gatherings. Walking into this lively setting sometimes feels like stepping into the workers’ quarters of the 1950s, yet the mixologists—many donning vintage-themed attire—keep the cocktails distinctly modern. Hefty praise is heaped on the friendly staff, especially frequent mentions of servers like Riccardo, Pravs, and Sophia, whose attentive service elevates the ambiance.

Beyond its spirited drinks menu presented as blueprints tucked in a cardboard tube, the venue perhaps shines brightest through its bespoke "cocktail escape room." With playful hosts such as Romer at the helm, guests immerse themselves in a world of intricate puzzles balanced by the delights of expertly crafted cocktails. This unique fusion of drinks, puzzles, and immersive theater is an energizing nod to something decidedly different—a realm where the discovery of the perfect margarita is pursued with the same fervor as the solving of a riddle. Such innovation, coupled with hearty endorsements of the amiable staff, solidifies Control Room B as more than just an eclectic bar amidst a cavernous historic monument; it’s a must-visit destination that weaves together the tactile past and engaging present—perfect for both casual midweek meet-ups and extravagant weekend soirees alike. — Audrey Al Dente
