Run by the same crew as The Lost Angel in Battersea and Citizen Smith bar in Putney, this is one of south London’s longest-established bars, which in the 1980s was known as the Tearoom des Artistes. Its evergreen appeal is clear: a louche vibe, a great music policy, affordable drinks (£4.50 for some cocktails) and friendly staff.
The list covers classics, mojitos, martinis and sours, plus a few of the bar’s own more leftfield creations. Part of the premises have been rebranded as the Blind Tiger, a supposedly ‘secret’ (give us strength) restaurant (in reality, heavily promoted by Lost Society) which also has its own bar and has been decorated in – you guessed it – a wacky, decadent speakeasy style.
