This Victorian-themed cocktail bar opened in 2011 and has spent three consecutive years on the World’s 50 Best Bars list with its historically themed cocktails, albeit ones executed with avant-garde culinary techniques and accompanied by traditional British fare.

Also on offer are classic cocktails, draught beer and an extensive range of wine and spirits, including more than 80 varieties of gin.
