Sometimes you just want to drink a martini and roleplay as Mrs. Robinson on a Saturday night, and there are few London bars that will scratch that glamour itch quite like this Mayfair drinking den in The Connaught hotel. It’s a cocktail bar that’s two parts show-stopping elegance, one part drama (of the high pour, performative peeling variety behind the bar), and all drenched in the Tanquerey gin that cruises around on the martini trolley. If you’re not partial to ‘tinis, they make a mean classic and we’re also very into the Good Fellas cocktail: a smoky-sweet balsamic and cardamom take on a Manhattan. The atmosphere is more classy conversation than party central, and there are a lot Fortune 500 dinner jacket-owners in the room, so if you’re seeking a crowd that’s more Forbes 30 under 30, head to the Connaught’s lesser-known and touch more casual Red Room.
