London certainly has no shortage of fantastic and award-winning cocktail bars, but if you're looking for the absolute best, it looks like you'll have to head to Bethnal Green. Renowned cocktail bar Satan's Whiskers is no stranger to winning awards but at the 2024 CLASS Bar Awards it was crowned Best Bar in London & the South East as well as Bar of the Year, beating off contenders from across the UK.
The trendy bar is known for turning preconceptions about cocktail bars on their head, serving up a hip hop playlist and quirky decor including taxidermy and retro posters on exposed brick walls. The drinks list changes every day so there are always fresh flavours to try.
The awards took place at Battersea Arts Centre, honouring leading bars all over the country across a number of different categories. Other London bars to have won awards on the night include Nobu Bar Portman Square, Connaught Bar, and Kwãnt, which won New Bar of the Year and Bar Food Menu of the Year. Check out all of the winners on the CLASS website.
