Reverend Jw Simpson

A gem in the city. Excellent cocktail bar with cosy and characteristic atmosphere. By looking at the menu, you can already recognise the care, the knowledge, and the passion of their offer. Drinks were all interesting and superbly made, and requests are welcomed by the bartender who has an interesting collection of liquors. Definitely recommended 👌.

I have been bartending for 18 years. Every time I think I've reached my zenith in the craft of mixing booze I come here to see Rhidian putting out drinks that make my best efforts effortlessly look amateur. I wouldn't mind if it were once but over the last few years this damn genius has given me a high water mark to strive for again and again. One day I will be his equal. Until then I insist you come try his inconceivable potions for yourself.

Please please please please if you're looking for cocktails in the area go here to indulge. On the northern line heading towards Leicester square and covent garden, very accessible and well placed for pre theatre or pre dinner drinks. Owner and head bartender Rhydian is turning out some of the most thoughtful and downright delicious drinks in London right now. An ever changing menu of accessibly (date I say it, for London cocktails, aggressively) priced concoctions that feature selections of unusual and often home and hand made ingredients that absolutely shine. Cocktails will generally be around thirteen pounds a go. This won't compete with a happy hour absolut espresso martini, and if that's your gig fair dinkums. But if you're looking for a brilliant drink, well located and in comfortable environs, I stress again, please please please give the reverend a thought. You will be handsomely rewarded.

A quiet and intimate local favourite which deserves wider renown. Run mostly by a solo bartender, this is exactly what a cocktail bar should be: full of passion for the drink above all else. The service is personal and knowledgeable, and the bohemian interior is perfectly suited to the stripped-back and friendly atmosphere. The cocktail list is scintillatingly imaginative, with unusual spirits and rare mixers combined to create some truly amazing themes. Perfect for a date, friendly get-togethers, and everything else in between!
