The Slaughtered Lamb is a really great pub near Farringdon and Clerkenwell. Located on Great Sutton St, just off the Clerkenwell Road, The Slaughtered Lamb is a large spacious pub often frequented by those working nearby or on an evening out. So it’s got a really nice buzz, especially mid-week. A serving suggestion is the Rhubarb Float: to create Cawston Press’s homage to rhubarb and custard chews, spoon a scoop of quality vanilla ice cream into a glass and top with Sparkling Rhubarb. What do I not know and who do I know that may have the answer. There are some things you can’t anticipate but the last 12 months have taught me to ask every question and to think through every aspect. It’s also worth asking yourself why you are doing this. If you are genuinely passionate about what you are doing it makes it easier to keep going and to deal with harder days. Our aim is to preserve and uphold the expertise and love that went into creating the flavours of our favourite spirits and to be able to experience them in a new way.”

Marston's brings in new CEO, as Andrea departs Arriving in June in its top three flavours – Sparkling Rhubarb, Cloudy Apple and Elderflower Lemonade – the fizzy drinks are simply sweetened with pressed fruit. According to KAM Media (which also provided consumer insight on soft drinks during the session) one in four customer visits to pubs and bars do not contain any alcohol. That’s equivalent to 329m visits per year – so the big question is, are venues doing enough to maximise this opportunity? A classic destination for those working in and around Clerkenwell and Farringdon, The Crown Tavern is pretty iconic. It might not be the fanciest, the cheapest, or the most impressive, but it’s got a buzz. A buzz from years of those living and working nearby visiting, enjoying (and braving) the outdoor tables, or huddling inside.

Thank you!

To help you find your next social meet up point or after work drinks location, here are selection of the best pubs in Clerkenwell, Farringdon, and near by. The Best Pubs In Clerkenwell And Farringdon The Merry Harriers in Hambledon, Surrey, has been bought byrestaurant operatorsAlex Winch and Sam Fiddian-Green.With a Tequila and Mezcal mixer joining the Sekforde Drinks range soon, it seems the company’s penchant for new kinds of mixers is going strong. Located (quite literally) next to Farringdon Station, The Castle is great little pub at the centre of the area and frequent stopping off point for those working in the area. Staying open till quite late (usually 11pm), The Castle can get a bit busy at peak times, with a commuters often going in with friends and colleagues for after work drinks – or for “one last one” on their way to the station. One of the other major differences between Sekforde Drinks and other mixers brands was that gin was never the primary focus. White explains that Tom is a keen chef and applied the same skills to crafting mixers. White says he took an almost culinary approach to deciding on the botanical blend, looking into the characteristics of whiskies and rums to find complementary flavours using food grade aromatherapy oils and just simple sugar and water.

Given that so much of a drink’s success is down to how much it stands out on the shelf, Talula’s simple, eye-catching design probably served Sekforde wonders in its first year. Standing out from the crowd:With vegan-friendly, natural ingredients, Good Earth Good Energy is a very different tasting drink to the norm. For a natural boost of feel-good energy, each can contains 80mg of natural caffeine, equivalent to one cup of coffee, sourced from guayusa, a celebrated Ecuadorian leaf. Good Earth Kombucha is an ambient product, so does not need fridge space and has a shelf life of 12 months but is best served when chilled. And that’s precisely why Pub & Bar has teamed up with some of the brightest and most exciting soft drinks producers in the market, to make these missed sales a thing of the past. From organic energy drinks to botanical tonic replacements (plus one drink that was so new, it arrived quite literally straight from the production line) – a panel of expert buyers from some of the UK’s most esteemed operators tried and tested six drinks in our efficient virtual tasting webinar.
