Kingly Court is like Soho’s food court, with every type of restaurant you could wish for. The latest addition – a bar – is doing something a little different however: an evening at Cahoots is a mind-blowingly well-executed immersive experience. Descend into the “Underground” to the sound of an old fashioned London Transport tannoy, drop […]

The Palomar opened last year on a nondescript street in London’s West End, and ticked all the boxes so completely that it was seemingly all anyone could talk about! The Palomar does have a smart restaurant area at the back, […]

Cocktail Bar Find: The Sun Tavern London
Posted by Nina Fitton on February 26, 2015 · Leave a Comment
With the success of Spitalfields speakeasy Discount Suit Co in mind, it was with great excitement that I watched the same team of drink aficionados unveil The Sun Tavern in Bethnal Green.

Matt Whiley is a bit of a cocktail celeb here in London. With bars such as Talented Mr. Fox and Purl under his belt, he’s known for his experimental approach to mixology. In fact it’s common for his bars to look more like science labs, with bottles and potions bubbling and steaming behind the bar, […]
