Perfect Afternoons at Lyaness

Situated on the ground floor of Sea Containers and offering scenic views over the Thames, Lyaness is the pioneering flagship cocktail bar of maverick mixologist Ryan Chetiyawardana, aka Mr Lyan. With numerous accolades to its name – including being named as World’s Best Bar in 2022 – it’s an essential visit for any Londoner with even a passing interest in mixology. And there’s no better time to do so than a sunny weekend afternoon, when you can sample its new Perfect Afternoons menu, offering two delicious drinks and two bar snacks for just £30. Spending a lazy afternoon on the Suoth Bank? Stop by to sample inventive concoctions named after neighbouring landmarks, including the Tate Shandy – featuring Compass Box Orchard House whisky, ‘double’ lemon and hopped kombucha – or the BFI Bellini – tequila, rhubarb and nitrate bubbles – alongside equally innovative light bites, from Space Raider devilled eggs to oysters with blackcurrant mignonette. Afternoons really don’t get any more perfect than this!
