Purgatory Bar

You'll find Purgatory tucked away on Cambridge Street in Pimlico, a neighbourhood that doesn't shout about itself but rewards those who know where to look. This is the kind of bar where the bartenders actually know what they're doing—they're not muddling fruit for Instagram, they're thinking about balance and technique. The room itself feels lived-in and unpretentious, the sort of place where you can have a proper conversation without shouting, and where a cocktail costs a fair few quid but tastes like someone genuinely cared about making it.
