| Last reviewed: May 2026 The room that gave the world Harry Craddock's Savoy Cocktail Book has spent the post-war decades quietly outliving every wave of fashion that washed past the Strand. Art Deco walls, a resident pianist, a bar team that has held a permanent place on the World's 50 Best list, and a list that still treats the dry martini as the room's load-bearing column. The Istanbul guest who spent the 90s in Beyoğlu with cigarettes and Negronis recognises this room on sight.
Editor's Tip
No reservations, arrive 18:30 if you want a banquette before the theatre crowd. Order a Hanky Panky and ask for the current signature menu. Smart casual is enforced; collared shirt for men.
