Doghouse Distillery

The award-winning Doghouse Distillery is officially planting its flag at 10 Clapham Common Southside, bringing a bold, grain-to-bottle ethos to the neighbourhood’s social scene. The venue is the brainchild of residents Katherine and Braden Saunders, who have successfully bridged the mile-long gap between their Battersea distillery and this new flagship bar.

The space offers a striking dual experience: guests can sip spirits upstairs amid the industrial charm of 40 racked whisky barrels, or descend into a low-lit honky-tonk speakeasy that transports a slice of Nashville to South London. By day, it radiates the welcoming warmth of a proper local’s pub, but as evening falls, the lights dim and the energy shifts into a buzzing cocktail destination fueled by live music and expert mixology.

At the heart of the experience is London’s largest Old Fashioned menu, showcasing the distillery’s diverse portfolio, including the Renegade Gin, Baller Vodka, and the trailblazing Debt Collector Moonshine. Because the spirits are produced just down the road, the bar avoids the middleman, offering premium cocktails at an accessible £9-£12 price point.

The menu is a love letter to craft, featuring whisky tasting flights served on authentic barrel staves and a focused food offering of gourmet toasties, charcuterie, and signature picklebacks.

Whether you’re there for a freshly pressed apple juice and corn whisky, a pint of local craft beer, or a honky-tonk night, the Doghouse Distillery Bar delivers a meticulously curated, independent spirit that is unique to the capital.
