The Connaught Bar, nestled within The Connaught Hotel in Mayfair, is a benchmark for luxury cocktail culture since its 2008 debut. Designed by David Collins Studio with a nod to 1920s English Cubism, its interior features rich textures, platinum silver‑leaf walls, marble floors, plush leather banquettes, and a mirrored bar backsplash. This elegant, intimate sanctuary is bathed in soft lighting and exudes Gatsby‑era glamour, yet with thoroughly modern flair . Director of Mixology Agostino Perrone has elevated the Connaught Bar’s reputation with its celebrated Martini trolley ritual—guests select from bespoke bitters, witness cocktails stirred over crystal‑clear ice and poured from height into refined glassware with expressed lemon oil. The menu, titled “Synergia,” offers around 15 signature cocktails, including the Allegro, Icebreaker, and Faithfulness, each blending classic and inventive elements. Beyond martinis, the bar showcases house‑distilled Connaught Bar gin—crafted from juniper, Amalfi lemon, mace, and Bordeaux red wine—and bottles premium spirits, rare vintages, and well curated wine by the glass via Coravin. Light bar snacks and evening canapés, like posh pizza and caviar on rye, complement the drinks. Renowned globally, it has earned multiple awards: World’s Best Cocktail Bar, repeated top‑ten status in The World’s 50 Best Bars (e.g., #5 in 2023), and recognition in industry publications. From its discreet entry by velvet curtains to white‑gloved service, Connaught Bar offers a cinematic and ceremonial experience—ideal for those who seek sophistication, ritual, and unrivalled craftsmanship.
