Nestled at the heart of The Rosewood Hotel is Scarfes Bar. With roaring fires, comfy leather sofas, velvet armchairs, and book shelves lined with over 1000 antique books chosen by a specialist dealer, Scarfes Bar oozes sophistication. But the real draw here are Gerald Scarfe's satirical illustrations (highlight of his career so far) lining the walls and the creative Scarfe-inspired cocktails. We can see why Scarfe describes the Rosewood bar as his 'personal art gallery, where you can see [his] life on walls'.


There's a fruity Ali G inspired margarita called Booyakasha, which contains grapefruit and dried mango among other potent ingredients, but the concoction with the real X factor has to be the cheekily titled High Wasted – a smouldering blend of Glenfiddich IPA, tobacco, hopped grapefruit and coco and leather soda inspired by Simon Cowell.


As the sun sets, the bar shifts up a gear with a fabulous programme of live jazz. Sip your Zingy Stardust, snack on top-notch sharing plates and soak up the artfully vibrant atmosphere. It's also a great spot for a date!
