The Bibliotheca Bar and Book Exchange

Chesterfields, bookshelves and green-hooded brass reading lamps set the scene at Bibliotheca, run by a couple of runaway Russians who know their Dostoyevsky from their Dickens. But it’s not all bookish: this is also a place to talk, sip a cocktail and come up with a gimmick for Gresham Street’s next small bar.
