    My friend and I stayed across the street at the Pan Pacific and stopped in for a cocktail after we had checked out, after saying for days we would stop in. The vibes here are amazing, and the drinks and food were delicious. We got the Garden Spritz and duck baos and they did not disappoint. Shoutout to Yovani for the great service as well!

    I had a fantastic experience at The Drift. It had been quite some time since my last visit, but it effortlessly matched my recollection. The service was remarkably swift, and the food choices and their quality were exceptional. I was pleased with the generous portion sizes, and the polite and attentive serving staff added to the positive experience. Impressive was the ample seating available both upstairs and outside. The quiet location made it perfect for enjoying the pleasant London summers while standing outside. Additionally, the cleanliness of the toilets was noteworthy. If you’re visiting with a large group be sure to reserve a table in advance.

    Delicious cocktails and nice vibes. My friends booked an area upstairs here for their engagement party and it went great. I especially liked the new york sour. The cocktails weren't outrageously expensive for central london, around 13 each. We also ate a few nibbles which were good.
