"This is the kind of bar where you wouldn't go if nobody told you that it's great. Hidden behind a worn-down facade, Satan's whiskers is actually an awesome classy and quirky cocktail bar. Old ads and bizarre stuffed animals make the interior. The cocktail menu is changed everyday, so you wouldn't get bored and the staff is super friendly." - Mélanie Hubert-Crozet
"A favorite among bartenders for its flawless technique and encyclopedic command of the cocktail canon, this bar eschews trendy theatrics for surgical accuracy. The menu rotates daily, and if you don’t see what you want you can request virtually any classic—no matter how obscure—and watch it be produced from memory. It’s the go-to place for rare or traditional cocktails such as a Ramos Fizz, a Firing Squad, or a Brandy Alexander." - BySam Stone
"Go to Satan’s Whiskers to lean across a table to get closer to your date, under the guise of talking over loud hip hop but really so they engage with your pheromones. At this fun, busy Bethnal Green bar, the potent Old Fashioneds are excellent and soft, sexy lighting makes everyone (and the high volume of taxidermy) look great. The bartenders take their cocktails seriously without any pretension. While most nice east London bars have ‘foraged this’ and ‘infused that’ in their drinks, the menu here sticks to the classics—all executed perfectly." - heidi lauth beasley, jake missing, daisy meager, sinead cranna
"Fat Joe sang that love’s about us, and it’s about trust babe, and you’re more than likely to hear this in Satan’s Whiskers. This trendy Bethnal Green cocktail bar is an easy choice on Friday and Saturday nights, thanks to the winning combination of a bop-worthy hip hop soundtrack and cocktails under a tenner. Be aware that it’s pretty much perma-busy, more often than not with couples staying until the 12am closing time before asking the inevitable, “yours or mine?“." - heidi lauth beasley, jake missing
"Satan’s Whiskers is where you go to lean across a table to get closer to your date, under the guise of talking over loud hip hop but really so they engage with your pheromones. At this fun, busy Bethnal Green bar, people order another round of excellent and potent Old Fashioneds just because. Soft, sexy lighting makes everyone (and the high volume of taxidermy) look great, and the bartenders take their cocktails seriously without any pretension. While most nice east London bars have ‘foraged this’ and ‘infused that’ in their drinks, the menu here sticks to the classics—all executed perfectly." - heidi lauth beasley, jake missing, daisy meager
