Formerly called The Legion and run by the people behind the Social, this late night bar is now called Be@1. Part of a growing chain of terribly named shiny cocktail bars, this one describes itself as having "an edgy, underground feel", where you can you "hang out with the East end cool crowd". A depressing sentiment if ever there was one, any place which has to promote a bar on the premise that it is filled with the 'East end cool crowd', is more likely to be filled with anything but. And indeed it was exactly like this when we popped in on a Friday night - a tedious bar filled with City workers and Leicester Square refugees, all necking drinks to make the most of the Happy Hour. Despite becoming more mainstream over the years, there are still many interesting venues to visit in Shoreditch. B@1 isn't one of them.
