The Bloomsbury Club

One of the city's most gorgeous hotel bars is also home to one of the gothest cocktail menus in London. Sat just shy of Bloomsbury Square, this luxe watering hole comes decked out in leather and velvet, but it's the drinks that really lend it some gothic credence. Paying homage the work of bohemian occultist Pamela 'Pixie' Colman Smith, their 14-strong selection takes influence from the mysterious art of tarot reading.

The Lost Boys & Croque Monsieur

Inspired by the greatest vampire movie to come out of the 80s - (a narrow miss for Once Bitten) - The Lost Boys pizzeria is known for kitsch charcoal-crust slices and pun-titled tipples. But hiding downstairs in the crypt? It's not the coffin a historic monster, but rather a bohemian basement bar serving up some of the most sensational goth cocktails in London - think an absinthe-misted Corpse Reviver #2 and lurid green Grasshoppers.
