Yo. We're a cute basement cocktail bar just above Soho, with neon that usually works and not one but two pinatas. Any questions?

Welcome

Making a Murder

We’ve been running cocktail bars a good while, and we’re getting the hang of it, so this is how we plan to go - great drinks, not over-complicated but with that spark of intrigue. Inexpensive, but not short-poured. An outrageously experienced team who still actually enjoy their jobs. A bar that’s sexy in a way that can only bespeak beauty and filth combining in harmony.

    JK, we’re not that naff. This is actually here so we can just toss out valuable SEO terms, because sound business sense. Don’t, like, read it or anything. Weird.

Cocktail Masterclasses

Cocktail masterclasses are great, right? Sure…sometimes. In short, we think that classes which teach you one or two specific drinks you’re clearly never making again are bullshit. The good news, though, is that when you’ve been making cocktails a loooong time, you’ll start to see the rules, the basic hoops to jump through to make things taste good. So that’s what we teach, and it's a lot of fun. BUT - Murder's a real small spot, hence why we basically built a space up the road specifically for classes - she's on top of the Royal Cocktail Exchange (5 mins away), and you can learn more about her classes here.
