The Mayor Of Scaredy Cat Town

Due to its popularity, speakeasy-style cocktail bar The Mayor of Scaredy Cat Town, is now one of the worst kept secrets in London, but it's still one of the best bars in Spitalfields Market. Hidden beneath the Breakfast Club on Artillery Lane, you enter through a fridge door and head down into a swinging throwback to the 1920s, serving prohibition style cocktails and laced fruit punches. It's fun, quirky and definitely cool. Just tell them you're there to see the Mayor!
