7th Mar 2015 - Archer Street, Soho, London

Approx 2:30pm - 3pm
Archer Street

3-4 Archer Street, London W1D 7AP

Archer Street is a very well kept - and lovely smelling - bar within the confines of Soho, and is decorated stylishly and lavishly...


...as the pictures display. What the pictures also display is how quiet it was. At this time on this Saturday, there were more bar staff than customers. This meant that the service was quick and attentive. All of the tables had reserved signs on for later on in the evening, so it must pick up later on.

The cocktail menu was interesting, but a little pricey. I decided to go for the Zacapa Don't Preach, which is strong in taste, and in alcohol! The absinthe mist was more prominent in the smell than the taste. 

Zacapa Don’t Preach

Zacapa rum stirred down with cognac, brown sugar syrup and barrel aged bitters, with an absinthe mist

Overall, I liked the decor, but at this early time I felt it
lacked atmosphere. I'd like to visit again on another day, but maybe book a table for the evening.
