5 London Bars That Are Still Delivering Negronis
We all know Negronis are fantastic. A single sip is like being slapped around the face by Campari, before getting a big old hug from sweet vermouth. During the summer, you can pretty much drink them anywhere. On your balcony. Out on a sunny terrace. In the bath. Okay, maybe that last one is just us, but if that’s not ‘self-care’ then we don’t want it. And the good news is, that if you’re not quite ready to hit up a bar for your Negroni needs or just want something special for a park reunion sesh, you can order this classic cocktail for delivery from one of these great London bars. Just don’t forget to buy some ice.
All of the options below are delivering nationwide.
The Spots
Did you know Negronis were accidentally invented when a count decided he wanted his americano to be stronger? That’s sexy. Why no one has named our attempts at making beer stronger with a shot of Gordon’s, we just don’t know. But we do know that Bar Tincture on Brick Lane are delivering their zero-waste cocktails, including a double serving of Negroni for under twenty quid.
You were robbed of that trip to Italy. Absolutely robbed. Sure, you never actually booked it or anything but whatever, you still deserve your consolatory Italian piazza experience. Make it happen with an order from Top Cuvée’s online booze sanctuary, Shop Cuvée. See what they did there? Anyway, not only are they delivering bottled negroni from top London bars, Three Sheets and Scout, they’re also doing a two-litre bag for a casual £80.
Did we develop a quarantine tradition known as Noon Negronis? Well, that’s between us and our houseplant. But the point is no matter how many Negronis we consumed during lockdown (82,000 litres and counting), we’ll still always be down for a delivery from Heads and Tails. This chic West Hampstead bar is delivering their batched Negronis via online booze shop, The Drop Store. Live nearby? You can opt for express same-day delivery too.
You might hear ‘Peckham Cellars’ and instinctively picture an episode of Only Fools And Horses where Del Boy tries to brew natural wine from a bag of dried apricots. But that would be a mistake. No, when you hear ‘Peckham Cellars’ you should immediately think of great Negronis. More specifically, their £12 three-serve pre-mixed negronis that they’re delivering nationwide. If you’re a Peckham local, please forgive the Del Boy joke and know that you can also get express delivery or opt for click and collect.
Short of providing actual sunshine, The Sun Tavern has got pretty much all of your socially-distanced summer needs covered. Picnic hampers? Check. Aperol Spritz kits? Check. Our one true alcohol love, the Negroni? Absolutely. Their quarantini kits are 30 quid for a pair of four-serving bottles, with the added bonus of being able to mix and match your choice of cocktails. Or you can just go for two bottles of Negroni. Because, Negroni.
