New Forms - Review - Chelsea - London - The Infatuation

"New Forms is hot. The Chelsea hi-fi bar—words that shouldn’t work together, but do—is a scene every weekend. Suede boots totter about outside, the front pavement becoming the go-to spot for cigarette-swapping with strangers and failed attempts by security to make room for curious onlookers to walk by. ‘Happy Birthday’ is likely to be crooned out of tune and a rogue Collie that got roped into going ‘out out’ with its owner sends SOS signals with its doleful eyes as it’s petted by a group of girls with matching denim skirts and blowouts. video credit: Sinéad Cranna video credit: Sinéad Cranna video credit: Sinéad Cranna photo credit: Sinéad Cranna Pause Unmute It’s happy, messy chaos. Made even happier and messier by absinthe cocktails and Made In Chelsea-lookalikes—it’s not them, they just have good hair—darting back inside when the ‘untz untz’ of a DJ set strikes up. New Forms works best as a stop-off to kick, not ease, you into a big night (it closes at 11pm), via sexy, low-slung sofas and vinyl. Start here, then stumble towards the King’s Road. We can’t promise you’ll find a cooler bar than this, though." - Sinéad Cranna

Great vibes, music and staff. Came here to work remotely for the morning and it’s quietly tucked away just off the main road with great music playing in the background. The old fashioned was quality!! Will be passing through again if I’m in the area, what a cheeky hidden gem this is 🎶 🥃 💻

Underwhelming…I was really looking forward to visiting this new vinyl /cocktail bar in Chelsea and hearing the quality sound system…What a disappointment! An incredibly underwhelming experience personally. The ‘sound system’ sounded like any other shop system - the big speakers were definitely on and working but sounded well below average. A reasonable selection of vinyl well displayed, good coffee and really nice staff couldn’t compensate for a very run of the mill interior - sorry the carpet! Really stained & nasty - wouldn’t look out of place in a cheap 80’s offices space. Disappointed! 🙄

New Forms is a real gem in Chelsea, the bespoke sound system is incredible - state of the art with next level acoustics. The cocktail menu is creative and delicious, with plenty of interesting choices (a nice selection of beers and wines too). The atmosphere is relaxed and welcoming, and THAT interior — sleek and cinematic, like stepping straight into a Stanley Kubrick film — ties it all together perfectly. Highly recommend!

Ended up at New Forms by chance over the weekend and really liked it. Intimate place with a chilled, relaxed vibe. Cocktails were great—interesting but not overcomplicated. The wine list was really well curated too, with some nice picks you don’t always see. Staff were friendly and happy to recommend things. Unmatched sound system.

New Forms is an absolute gem tucked just off the King’s Road - part bar, part record store, all great vibe. Brought to life by the team behind Next Door Records, it’s the perfect spot to sip something tasty while listening to their impressive bespoke Hi-fi system. Thoughtfully curated, effortlessly cool and already feeling like a local secret. This will undoubtedly be my new local!

Absolutely blown away by New Forms. Chelsea has been crying out for a spot like this. Tucked just off King’s Road, it’s the perfect blend of laid-back cool and hi-fi sophistication. The sound system is unreal…seriously next-level speakers that make you want to stay all night, whether you’re into vinyl or just good vibes. You can tell they’ve really invested in proper hi-fi quality rather than just background noise. The cocktails are spot-on (some of the best I’ve had in the area) and they’ve got a great selection of natural wines too, which is rare to find done well in most bars around here. To top it off, the service was faultless: friendly, knowledgeable, and totally unpretentious. Already planning my next visit. This place is going to be big.
