Jin Bar

You're walking into the Dorsett on Dorsett Street in Shepherds Bush, past the lobby and into Jin Bar—a properly grown-up space that doesn't try too hard. The bar itself is the centrepiece, all clean lines and precision, with bartenders who take their craft seriously without the tedious theatrics you get elsewhere. They've clearly invested in their spirit collection, and the cocktails land exactly as intended. It's the sort of place where you can ask for something interesting and they'll deliver, whether that's a riff on a classic or something from their own menu.
