The Goring Cocktail Bar is located inside The Goring on Beeston Place in Belgravia, close to Buckingham Palace and Victoria station. It provides an elegant but sociable setting for drinks before dinner, Champagne after a meal or a longer evening in the hotel lounge.
The bar team prepares established classics as well as original creations, using its knowledge of spirits, flavour combinations and presentation to tailor the experience. Guests can choose from the listed cocktails or ask the team for guidance when looking for something suited to their tastes.
Signature drinks pay tribute to people connected with the hotel. The Garden Negroni updates the classic with vetiver and sakura, while Thank You, Your Majesty combines raspberry, yuzu syrup, gin and Champagne in an expressive celebratory cocktail.
Live music in the lounge includes piano performances, bands and vocals on selected evenings. A lounge drinks list and food menu allow guests to extend their visit beyond cocktails, with daytime dining and evening service making the space useful for several different occasions.

The Goring Gin
The Goring Gin is an exceptionally smooth London Dry Gin that has been influenced and infused with botanicals grown in the Goring Garden. A classic zing of juniper gives way to a beautiful citrus heart that comes from our lemon verbena, we use apricots grown in our gardens to give our gin a wonderful fruity end notes which lingers on the palate. All smoothed using honey that comes from rooftop hives kept around London.
