The Last Tuesday Society & Absinthe Parlour

You'll find yourself climbing the stairs of a Victorian townhouse on Mare Street, greeted by mounted animals and oddities that set the tone immediately—this isn't your average Hackney cocktail spot. The Last Tuesday Society blends genuine cocktail craft with theatrical eccentricity, and they take their absinthe seriously without being insufferable about it. The staff actually know their stuff, the drinks are properly balanced, and there's something genuinely intoxicating about the whole atmosphere that keeps people coming back.
