About the space
This immersive 30-capacity cocktail cellar blends oriental craftsmanship with speakeasy intrigue, offering a warm, theatrical backdrop for intimate corporate events. The architectural style draws from East Asian influences, featuring a geometric lattice ceiling with embedded ambient lighting, wallpaper in muted gold and crimson chinoiserie patterns, and classic hanging red lanterns that infuse the room with a seductive glow. A sculptural golden dragon watches over a semi-circular back bar stocked with rare spirits and Asian liqueurs, while vintage tea sets and drawers styled after apothecary cabinets evoke a sense of mystique and ceremony.
The centrepiece is a large polished wood cocktail counter with integrated steaming baskets, hinting at dim sum rituals, surrounded by quilted leather stools. Delicate pendant bulbs and fringe-trimmed lampshades finish the scene with nostalgic glamour. An optional Asian food menu complements the cocktail offering, with refined small plates that echo the venue’s thematic roots.
Ideal for executive mixers, creative team sessions, exclusive client gatherings, afterworks, and team celebrations, this cellar offers privacy, mood, and atmosphere in equal measure, perfect for groups seeking something transportive and unexpected.
