"Jazzy Cocktails with Bite The cocktails at theNightjar are as spectacular as anything you’ll get in London—wittily designed creations like Beyond the Sea, which arrives in a giant seashell with a side of yuzu salt, or the Toronto, which comes with a stick of smoked candyfloss. They’re served in a mirror-and-onyx art deco basement that makes you feel you’ve stumbled into the 1920s at the height of its glamour. And if that wasn’t enough, they also have live music every night, showcasing some of the best acoustic music in London from gipsy swing to Caribbean jazz. There really is no excuse not to go."
