A good time with friends has never been more appreciated this summer. We all want to make the most of the long warm nights, and luckily, these London venues are on-hand with the best food, drink, and entertainment the city has to offer – with a complimentary cocktail on the house!
Each of the following incredible venues is offering a free cocktail to make sure your festivities get off to the best possible start.
These truly are four of the best venues London has to offer, and there really is something for everyone…
Vinegar Yard
A great day out in London doesn’t always have to begin when the sun sets, and if you’re looking for a fantastic lunch in London, Vinegar Yard is a top-tier choice. With stunning city views of The Shard, it’s ideally located next to London Bridge station.

Some of the eateries include the Bad Boy Pizza Society, Nik’s Kitchen for Asian-inspired street food, and Sugo UK, which specialises in Italian street food. Something for every pallet!

But Vinegar Yard won’t just leave you with a happy belly, it will also quench your thirst as you sit outside and enjoy the London sunshine. Why not wash your lunch down with a Red Bull Tropical before going to another food stall for seconds?

Whether it’s the bacon cheeseburger that takes your fancy or the black bean chili dog, every item on the menu is perfectly accompanied with a delicious Watermelon Cooler.
The impressive American-style menu also boasts plenty of plant-based and vegetarian options to cater to every dietary requirement.
Finish off your meal with a No-Nonsense shake, one of their many desserts, or if you’re still peckish, get stuck into other mouthwatering delights like deep-fried mac and cheese bites or salt and pepper fries.
Another must-try on the MEATLiquor menu is the Game Over cocktail – a delicious concoction of spirits that’s not for the faint of heart.
