Let’s be honest – we’ve all heard of London’s famous bars and pubs and always wanted to visit one. Let’s be honest again – we don’t usually have the money to drop by the bar stand and casually order a £10 cocktail. Well, the good news is, lots and lots of bars all over London have quite attractive offers for their Happy Hours. So, here is a handy list of bars and pubs in different parts of London with their Happy Hour offers!

The Abbey Tavern

  • Drinks: Cocktails

Drinking in the Abbey tavern will look more like gathering at a party thrown by an old, but estranged with time, friend. A simple interior and brick walls are organically combined with the colourful bunting. Best to come at 12-4 pm time, when they offer two drinks for just £10!

The timeless bar and kitchen

Trapeze

Bar story

  • Drinks: Cocktails

Easily confused with an entrance to the service facilities, the door/gate to the Bar story doesn’t wave at you to enter.

Their cocktail prices go as low as two for £8 during their happy hours from 6-7 pm daily. 

Rum Kitchen (Brixton)

  • Drinks: Cocktails

This Caribbean-themed bar serves not only delicious cuisine but also the fresh breeze of the salt wind and the echoes of the pirate songs. The best addition to this atmosphere will be their £5 and £6 cocktails, served daily until 7 pm.

The drunken oyster

  • Drinks: Cocktails

The quirky name doesn’t correspond to the look of the bar. Large wooden bar stand and lightbulbs, hanging from the ceiling create an industrial, yet fashionable atmosphere. If you, as the author of this article travel majorly by Oyster card, you’ll still be able to afford the drinks there. Thanks to £5 spritz, £10 for two cocktails, which they offer daily, from 4-7 pm.
