A hidden gem of a basement bar with maximum soul, a relaxed, low-key atmosphere and a reliably excellent music policy.

Vintage funk, sweet soul and reggae are typical here. Events include Heads High Music, Black Rabbit and Elevate. It's applauded by converts for providing a sanctuary in the Shoreditch barrage of chrome, coolness and slamming electro.

More like being at a mates house party than out in the 'Ditch, Three Blind Mice is a real find - if you can find it.
