Merchant House of Bow Lane
An imperial-looking outpost for gin and rum

The Merchant House of Bow Lane is open Monday to Saturday and is a paradise for those who love gin or rum, or both. With more than 350 varieties of each spirit stocked here, even aficionados of either drink will find something new to experience.
Its cosy and comfortable environs allow guests to sample what’s on offer while relaxing. And it’s themed around the concept of imperial trade, which was central to the success of both spirits: hence the name Merchant House.
