1901 Wine Lounge

You're stepping into a proper grown-up drinking space here—the kind of place where the wine list actually matters and the staff know what they're talking about. Tucked inside the Hyatt on Liverpool Street, 1901 Wine Lounge channels early 20th-century glamour without feeling like a museum piece. The bar's done out with art deco touches, dark wood panelling and mood lighting that makes everyone look like they've got their life sorted. Whether you're after a serious Burgundy or a well-made cocktail before heading to Moorgate, this is the spot that takes its drinks seriously but doesn't make a fuss about it.
