Review of Bevendi/Consummate Cocktail

This could well be my new favourite spot in Shored...

This could well be my new favourite spot in Shoreditch! From the fabulous flintlock pistols on the door, to the bowler hat-wearing T-Rex skull on the bar, this place packs a ton of old world charm into a small space. My partner and I enjoyed a lovely early evening here, trying numerous options off the menu as well as a few off-menu requests, all of which were brilliant. After a recent trip to New Orleans we were keen for some classic hurricane cocktails, which the bartenders whipped up in authentic style, just one sip transporting us right back to the Mississippi! Seriously, they were as good as the best Louisiana can offer.

In fact, we loved the bar so much that we returned later in the evening with friends for another round.

The cocktails on the menu all have really creative presentations; clearly the staff take great pride in their art and it s just such a pleasure to find a place like this where so much love and attention goes into the drinks. One of the cocktails even came in a cardboard Chinese takeout carton, topped with crispy noodles. When the staff are having so much fun with the drinks, how can you not have fun as a punter?

We go to Shoreditch fairly often and from now on I suspect we will always be stopping in here.

Oh and I love the Chemical Brothers reference on the doors downstairs.
