The Mayor of Scaredy Cat Town
12-16 Artillery Lane Spitalfields E1 7LS
Another East London 'Speak-Easy', this one requires you to head through the Breakfast Club, announce to the waitress (after booking ahead) that you are, 'Here to see the Mayor', climb through a fridge door (yes, really) down a back staircase and voila – you're in a dingy little basement cocktail bar! It's a good laugh, but the cocktails are slow coming, expensive, and the whole thing is a lot of faffing about really. Worth one trip for the amusement though.
