Blind Pig: Inventive with a touch of the classic
This bar above Jason Atherton's Social Eating House is worth a trip on its own merits, says David Ellis

Jason Atherton's bars are always first rate – in fact, some are better than the restaurants they're attached to. Social Eating House is excellent, mind you, but Blind Pig is worth a trip on its own merits. It's all vintage feeling, low ceilings and darkness, cocktails are expertly made, managing to both be inventive with a touch of the classic. It's usually quieter midweek, at least these days, but you'll often need to book. Great bar snacks, too.
