St James Bar

6 of London’s coolest cocktail bars that only the locals know about - SilverKris

"An intimate, Coco Chanel–inspired salon where cocktails are presented as individual works of art and the atmosphere is gorgeously elegant. Signature concoctions include the St James Reviver — Ketel One citron vodka with Chamberryzette strawberry liqueur, elderflower syrup, citrus and soap bark — and the inventive Passport menu that lets guests sample globally inspired drinks such as the Shodo (Roku gin, black cherry syrup infused with green tea & apricot, lemon, egg white, Suze bitters) and the Mekong (Mekhong Thai spirit, Koko Kanu coconut rum, lime, basil, homemade earl grey tea, spicy syrup, Peychaud’s bitters). Note that the venue has been temporarily closed at times due to pandemic restrictions, so checking current opening information is advised." - James Wong
