Rank 558. Milroy's of Spitalfields
Cocktail Bar
Four floors of whisky obsession in the shadow of Spitalfields Market, with a thousand drams on the ground floor and a basement cocktail bar, The Proofing Room, named for the bakery that occupied the space before the war. The cocktails lean on the original Soho location's Vault recipes, so the Coconut Butter Old Fashioned travels well. Above it all, a private members club with a cigar terrace, for those who like their evenings to escalate.

Rank 558. Square Mile Distillery and Bar
Cocktail Bar
The copper and steel stills behind the glass wall are not props. Each one was carried down the stairs by hand, and they all still run, made by German craftsman Christian Carl with the kind of dials and levers Jules Verne would have sketched. This City cocktail bar leans hard into gin, with a menu built around it, though other spirits and a few beers are there if you insist on ignoring the obvious.

Rank 558. TT Liquor
Cocktail Bar
A three-floor East London cocktail bar with a liquor store stocking over a thousand bottles, many of them rare, which already tells you something about the clientele. The cellar bar is the heart of it, candlelit and genuinely subterranean, while upstairs fills with masterclasses and tasting sessions most weekends. It sits on Kingsland Road, where the bar scene runs deep, and holds its own among stiff competition.

Rank 558. Without Papers
Italian
The menu arrives as a passport, which tells you more or less everything about this Kingsland Road bar. Three Italian founders turned a loaded piece of American slang into a name for the place they built after moving to London, and the concept holds together better than it has any right to. Expect an Italian-leaning wine list, draught beer, and food to go with it, all in a Shoreditch room that takes its own backstory seriously without losing the plot.
