This Mayfair haunt is the ultimate hotel bar, stately-home luxurious and warmly welcoming. The drinks cost a fortune, but they’re so strong you can’t have more than one without slipping into a coma. And the bottomless bowls of nibbles are a meal in themselves.
Do you like having to yell at your friends when you go out drinking together? Fine, it’s your shout. We like to cater for everybody, so we’ve put together a list of ten places where talking is easier – ideal for those quiet catch-ups or maybe even date night. Of course, any bar can get a bit noisy if there’s a large and rowdy crowd in. But these places are all top bets if you don’t want to run in a hoarse-race.
