XOTO PECKHAM

Walk into XOTO and you'll immediately clock the no-nonsense approach—exposed brick, minimal fuss, maximum focus on what's in your glass. This is cocktail-making stripped of pretension; the bartenders know their craft inside out, but they're not here to perform or lecture you about obscure bitters. You'll find yourself ordering rounds you weren't planning on because the menu reads like someone actually thought about flavour combinations rather than just stacking expensive ingredients together. It's the kind of place where Peckham locals and cocktail enthusiasts rub shoulders without it feeling try-hard, and the drinks justify every penny.
