Gordon's Wine Bar
This cosy, cavernous, candlelit cellar is London's oldest wine bar.
Overview
London's oldest wine bar has been pouring fine vino since 1890. Gordon's is a no reservations type spot with traditional hospitality from a dedicated team, many of whom have been at Gordon's for years. Sip al fresco or beneath the vaulted, wine-cave ceiling, its walls covered in rustic paint and history. The wine list benefits from the close relationship the Gordon's team have with many vineyards in various regions around the globe. They have everything from Old World stalwarts to New World wines, natural and biodynamic wines, award-winners, and even port and sherry barrels. Most of their sizeable selection is available by the glass, and they've got snacks, charcuterie and more than 15 cheeses to pair them with. A must-visit for any vino aficionado.
