We ♥ Dirty Martini – Bishopsgate

By Hannah @Hannah_Beraud

Hello there ! As cocktail week is reaching to an end in London, now is time to let you know which bar we headed to for drinks :D And as this article’s title suggests, we went to try the newly opened Dirty Martini in East London! For this new venue, the Dirty Martini team chose one of the trendiest and growing area of the city, Shoreditch. And the atmosphere you’ll find in the room is definitely in line with all the local creative and hipster spirit ;)

Everything from our arrival in the bar to the end of the evening went smoothly and perfectly: we were welcomed by a crowd of both city boyz and fashionistas, all celebrating cocktail week – or just enjoying a regular Thursday night out :) We started off with 2 martinis, followed by skinny cocktails and a delicious seafood platter:

Finally, we ended our evening with a few bubbles for the road:

What makes this 3rd location way different from the 2 other ones in Hanover Square and Covent Garden is definitely the area in which this one is located. People are more outgoing, want to let loose and get cray-cray after a day of pressure at work. Nothing was left out when thinking the concept through – even the interior design is amazing with great wall decorations, paintings and mixed colors. We were really impressed by all the efforts the team put into this bar! Well done and keep on rocking the #spiritedsophistication.
