Blind Spot Review

Top 10 things you need to know about Blind Spot:
1) Tucked away at the back of the ground floor of the St Martins Lane Hotel in Covent Garden, Blind Spot is just that: a blind spot. Accessible only behind a tea counter façade via a secret gold, hand-shaped door knob, this hidden cocktail bar is not easy to stumble on - but worth it when you do.
2) An extensive cocktail menu alludes to the tea trade of the British Empire. The Camellia is delicious: black tea infused Belvedere with Chambord, Aperol and raspberry purée. The mixologists certainly know what they're doing.
3) Bring a date, or someone to impress. Lit by candlelight, the low light gives a sexy, 1920’s speakeasy vibe.
4) The waiters are endlessly helpful. Whatever you like in a drink, they'll be able to suggest a perfect cocktail for you with surprising accuracy.
5) The bar menu is full of Asian-inspired nibbles to soak up your cocktails. Try baby squid with jalapeño mayonnaise, or scallop and pineapple carpaccio. Whilst the price tag is slightly above your usual bar snacks, there's a good reason why – don’t settle for pork scratchings ever again.
6) The crowd is a real mix. On a typical evening, expect to see gaggles of suited businessmen, friends congregating over cocktails, as well as a few dates. You'll be able to play everyone's favourite game – spot the Tinder date (there'll be a few).
7) Although upmarket, the bar is also seductively comfortable. Choose a cosy booth at the side of the bar, or relax in armchairs in the middle of the room.
8) Blind Spot wants to entertain you; expect a programme of live music throughout the week. Every Tuesday, you'll be serenaded by a live jazz trio who, believe us when we say, can play you anything.
9) With the buzz of Covent Garden and Leicester Square moments away, the bar is a refuge from London’s busy streets. It's worth paying a few extra pounds to not fight through the crowds for a drink.
10) Once you know it's there, you'll be racing to go back with anyone you can persuade to go with you. With cocktails priced from £13-£14, it's a pricey destination, but somewhere you'll want to go every time you're celebrating, or when someone else is paying....read more
