Thank you for entering!

Living in London can mean that it’s basically impossible to get your friendship group in one place at the same time, unless someone’s getting married or born – but what if we had a foolproof way for you to round-up the troops?

To celebrate the opening of the brand new speakeasy-style Bootlegger Covent Garden on 26th June, we’re offering two lucky winners the chance to win a £250 bar tab for you and three friends, plus welcome cocktails on arrival, plus a private area for your group, plus a night of live music, for you and all your mates. If they don’t all come flocking for a prize like that, you might need to rethink your group-chat members. 

All you need to do is enter your details at the bottom of the page for a chance to be among the first to visit Covent Garden’s newest late-night hotspot. Bootlegger Bars aren’t known for doing things by halves: they’ll be coming in hot to the West End with a fun Prohibition-style aesthetic (all the better for wearing your gladrags and taking a few pics for the apps…), live swing, blues and rock ‘n’ roll bands every night from Wednesday to Saturday, dancing, and interactive cocktail masterclasses.

Speaking of cocktails, Bootlegger Covent Garden, located just moments from the iconic Piazza, also promises daily two-for-£16 cocktail happy hours (which run until 8pm, including on Saturdays), making their drinks some of the best value-tipples in central London. The menu includes expertly crafted classics like sassy Cosmos, classy Limoncello Spritzes, and zingy Margaritas, plus some wild and wonderful house creations: think Jaffa Cake Espresso Martinis, gin-spiked strawberry and rhubarb lemonades, and Strawberry Cheesecake or Apple Crumble cocktails, complete with biscuit rims, for the sweet-toothed among your squad. Beer- and wine-drinkers don’t miss out either, with happy-hour deals across the entire drinks menu. 

If Bootlegger Covent Garden sounds like your kind of place (if you like fun, frankly, how could it not be?), head down from June 26 to join the party. And to be in with the chance of winning a very Bootlegger night out for you and your mates – and to sign-up to Bootlegger’s mailing list to receive a free cocktail – simply enter your details below. 

The only thing better than a long, boozy lunch with the best people? A long, boozy brunch with the best people. There are loads of reasons why we prefer it to dinner or lunch. A) You can indulge in cocktails and Champagne for hours and still be tucked up at a reasonable hour with no hangover in the morning – it’s almost like it never happened. And B) In the summer, it’s a chance to soak up the sun and work on your tan while chewing the fat – talk about multi-tasking!

That’s why we’re particularly excited about The Main Event at The Gun. The recently refurbished tavern and restaurant in Spitalfields is serving up a brand-new brunch menu every Saturday from 12-5pm complete with indulgent dishes cooked up using the very best ingredients and all the vibes. The Breakfast Burger is the stuff of dreams with a butter croissant loaded with a Herefordshire chuck and rib beef patty, crispy bacon, gooey American cheese, spicy jalapeños, habanero mayo and a rich egg yolk running straight through the middle. Loud, messy and absolutely the right decision before midday. Elsewhere on the new menu, there’s the French toast – thick-cut brown butter brioche with cinnamon whipped cream, maple syrup and bursting mixed berries – as well as the burrata and peach salad. WIth creamy burrata, sweet peaches, parma ham, peppery rocket and toasted walnuts finished with balsamic glaze, it’s summer on a plate. Sides are by no means sideshows, either – you’ve got to try the spiced tater tots,  padrón peppers, truffle and parmesan fries and shepherd’s pie croquettes. All lipsmackingly good! 

But what would brunch be without booze? As part of the Main Event, you’ll be able to wash everything down with a glass of Veuve Cliquot Brut Yellow Label, frozen porn star martinis and Aperol spritzes and iceberg affogatos. 

Good news, then, that you can win a Main Event brunch at The Gun for you and three of your closest pals including a bottle of Veuve Cliquot Brut Yellow Label to kickstart the celebrations. To enter, simply fill in your details below before the competition ends on 15 July and cross your fingers! We’ll drop the winner a line to let you know you’ve won, then it’s simply a case of setting up the group Whatsapp to see who’s game.
