WHY WE LOVE THIS BAR...

This little basement bar on the corner of Old Street roundabout doesn’t look much from the outside. It maybe even looks a bit dodgy (which is hard to achieve these days), but once you’re in, you’re in for the night and it’s easy to get comfy in a dark corner in this Prohibition-style cocktail den. There’s live music every night from 9.30pm which is great, and they’re keen that no one loiters at the bar so it never feels too crowded - also great. The drinks are award-winning and always look real fancy so this is a great place for a special occasion.
