East London Liquor Company

A whisky and gin distillery in Bow Wharf, this industrial-look bar has huge date night potential. For starters, it’s a distillery so you can do the maths on how good the cocktails are. Secondly, a lockdown rotisserie chicken specialist from the team behind Leroy, Royale, have moved in and are providing scotch bonnet sauces, crispy potatoes, as well as great little snacky items like olives, prosciutto, and chickpea fries. Basically, it’s the ideal place for a couple of martinis to turn into a full-blown meal complete with a side of PDA or for a moody, intimate birthday where you demand someone shoves a candle into your 10/10 rotisserie chicken.
