"The re-vamped, new version of Dandelyan Bar by Ryan Chetiyawardana. With a cocktail menu built around five proprietary ingredients, including a green sauce liqueur; oyster honey; and an iteration of curaçao made from pig blood, it’s another testament to Chetiyawardana’s ability to combine seriousness with sparkle." - Emma Hughes, Anna Sulan Masing, Richard Godwin

"This botanical bar that crowns the Mondrian's Sea Containers on the Thames is stewarded by mixologist of the moment, Ryan Chetiyawardana. Besides his innovative cocktails—many made with high-tech techniques all his own—the Tom Dixon-designed space is plushly outfitted, and there are unparalleled views of the Thames both on the top floor of the hotel, and downstairs."

I visited Lyneass Cocktail Bar while staying at the Sea Containers Hotel, and while the staff were polite, friendly, and lovely, I wasn’t overly impressed with the drink. It was heavy on the ice and tasted mostly like spirits, though maybe I missed something as I’m not a big cocktail connoisseur. It wasn’t too busy on a Friday night, so it could be worth heading there for a drink if you're in the area, but I wouldn't say it's the best spot for cocktails in London.

Great cocktail spot by the Thames with views on St Paul’s Cathedral. The bar has an extensive menu of non-traditional cocktails, so definitely inventive and fun. The ambiance is quiet, modern and spacious. Waiters were very friendly too. Average price per drink around £20, but would say it’s worth it!

Wonderful ambience, amazing drinks. Superior service provided by the friendliest staff we have encountered during our stay in London, and that includes visits to two other five-star hotels. Sea Containers and Lyaness are now our favorites!

A truly excellent bar, perfect for a cold winter evening - comfortable interiors and fantastic view of the river. The cocktail menu was varied and offered multiple options to go boozeless, my favourite being the Kentakki Fried Cocktail. The snack options were also great, especially the Sea Bass Ceviche Taco.

The atmosphere was excellent, and the service extraordinary. The food was good. As a cocktail enthusiast, I appreciated the creativity behind the unique cocktails made with rare and exclusive ingredients. We tried four cocktails—two were exceptional, with a perfect balance of flavours and originality. The other two, while not as bold, might appeal more to other palates.

Great cocktail bar right on the Thames offering amazing views and mostly delicious cocktails and snacks! Fish tacos, hotdogs, chicken bites... The cocktails menu is extensive and original, and there are many alcohol-free options. All cocktails were very well presented and tasted lovely (a lot of subtle flavours). Not crowded for a Saturday night and great staff! Can't wait to visit again and try more drinks.

What an absolutely amazing bar. Our third visit and every time is a delight. We WERE going to walk to the National Portrait Gallery but when we walked past Lyan-ess we saw open seats and decided to change our plans. We sat at the bar and enjoyed some of the best cocktail programs in the world. Don’t come here to order a Jack and Coke, come to experience some of the fine offerings on the cocktail menu. Mind bendingly delicious. And the staff were all amazing and friendly and we got to know the bar staff over our short time there. Also, the fries are never to be missed!
