Nancy Spains

If you're on the hunt for your new favourite spot in Shoreditch to enjoy a creative cocktail and listen to some live music, then you're going to want to make a note of Nancy Spains. This Irish pub celebrates the rebels among us, with its Prohibition-style interior merged with an East End charm, and offers an escape from the bustle of the city. Its tipples are inventive and moreish: think espresso martinis made with honey whisky the ironically named Oscar Wilde, a fruity tribute to the late writer. Visit for its 2-4-1 happy hour every Sunday to Thursday and stay for an array of entertainment and good vibes. 

Portside Parlour

A hidden gem characterised by its dark green leather booths and original east London artworks, Portside Parlour is the perfect spot for date night. There's expertly made cocktails, a neat and tidy tapas menu and a very exclusive range of spirits that are available to purchase by the bottle.
