We all know Browns Brasserie & Bar for its cracking British eats but did you know its Covent Garden site houses something a little extra special? Enter Spey Bar By Quaich. Brought to you from the same brains behind Scotland’s Craigellachie Hotel, this drinking den is ideal for dreamy date nights galore. Boasting beaut chandeliers, velvet-clad seating and high ceilings, the brand-spanking new venue offers over 100 different Scottish whiskies - that's pretty neat.

Grab a wee bit of dram, and tuck into elegant British snacks. Nab freshly shucked oysters with a squeeze of lemon or if you rather split a few plates, we recommend getting the mini lobster rolls or a charcuterie spread filled to the brim. If the focus is more on the spirits, these folks do a fabulous whisky flight. Not big on the dark stuff? There’s a wide selection of cocktails from espresso martinis and mojitos to amaretto sours and more.
