Best Happy Hour - Simmons Camden

Margarita Mondays! and 2 other offers

Quite simply, the home of the happy hour, Simmons have had a blinding year. 2015 saw multiple openings and renovations, and to top it off, they've gone a scooped the Best Happy Hour in London award. Proving that you don't need to compromise on quality when enjoying their crazy-generous happy hour, guests of their outposts can enjoy £2.50 beers, 2 for £10 cocktails and plenty more treats, six nights a week.

Best New Venue - Flight Club

We'll be honest, when we first heard there was a 'darts-based-bar' opening in London, we had our doubts. But against all odds, Flight Club in Moorgate did the unthinkable; it made a game once only associated with smokey regional pubs, genuinely cool again. Using state-of-the-art technology - combined with delicious food and quirky interiors - Flight Club beat off tough competition in the public vote to be crowned as London's Best New Bar

Best Cocktail Menu - The Cocktail Trading Co.

Though recently upping sticks and making the move from Soho to a bigger plot in the Brick Lane area, The Cocktail Trading Co still managed to win the Best Cocktail Menu award in this year's coveted honours. Offering innovative boozy combinations, served in all manner of quirky vessels - this cocktail haunt has made an international impression over the last year, and if their new opening is anything to go by, the only way is up for these guys. 

Best Bar - Nightjar

Since its opening in 2010, this innovative speakeasy-styled bar has been winning international nightlife awards left, right and centre; so it will come as no surprise to many it was voted as London's Best Bar in the DesignMyNight Awards 2015/16. Combining expertly mixed drinks - all inspired by different historical eras - with a subtly-unique interior, Nightjar is a must-try London bar, well worth adding to your bar bucket list.

Best Pub - Aeronaut

Promising comedy, live music, circus acts and one of London's most impressive beer gardens, this multi-facing outpost in Acton is a well deserved winner of London's Best Pub. Known for their weekly circus evenings hosted from their big-top space, Aeronaut is a safe bet for great food, home-brewed beer and an unparalleled entertainment roster.
