The 411 London

Serious cocktails in Clerkenwell with a no-nonsense approach and a bartender who actually knows what they're doing.

sophisticatedintimaterelaxedrefinedcocktail bar
Walk down St John Street and you'll find a narrow, unassuming entrance that leads to one of London's most respected cocktail bars. The 411 doesn't do novelty or Instagram theatre—what you get instead is craft-focused drinks made by bartenders who treat their work like it matters. The space itself is intimate and stripped back, the kind of place where conversation flows naturally and the person behind the bar remembers regulars. It's become a proper neighbourhood fixture in Clerkenwell, packed most nights with people who know their way around a martini but aren't precious about it.
