Great drinks, an elegant atmosphere, and professional waiters.
The Donovan is home to the world's oldest and most expensive drink, which packs over 700 years into a glass, including cognac from 1788, setting you back £5500.
That’s a bit too expensive for my wallet, but I enjoyed a few good cocktai
Fantastic cocktails. Great staff. Drinks are served with parmesan cheese bites and olives. Fancy. Intimate. Cosy. Loved it.
Visited on a Friday night after dinner near by. Was looking for a quiet intimate bar with good cocktails so after looking through the pictures I thought this was a good place. It is situated in a hotel and the door man was very welcoming. The bar itself is quite beautiful and the cocktail menu has a
Dropped in for an hour or two on Saturday night. Pleasant experience overall. We were quite excited by the reputation and history of the place but we felt like the cocktails were a bit of a mixed bag. Absolutely loved "Deep Blue" though and the service was on point.
Great atmosphere, with nice, sleek interiors and cool mellow jazz playing throughout. The bar team are simply phenomenal and very knowledgeable. I highly recommend a visit to London's best kept secret!
I’ve been on November…Incredible place, very satisfied about the atmosphere and the cocktails. It is a place that you can relax, enjoy nice music, drink tasteful cocktails and have a nice conversation…
Amazing staff and cocktails. We enjoyed the Alaska drink with 150 year old alcohols. Incredible selection with a lovely ambiance.
Lovely place, beautiful cocktails and fantastic service from the Italian manager.
Treat yourself to what is perhaps the finest bar experience in London. World class service, creative and diverse menu and posh and welcoming vibe. Bartender Alexander treated us very well. I think you will like it.
Lovely place to sit and enjoy the atmosphere in front of a fire. The cocktails were tasty and the cheese and olives they provided as bar nibbles were delicious
One of the coolest bar in Mayfair. Located in a quiet and elegant street, The Donovan is defo a must-try in London. Not to mention the flawless cocktails and the kindness and knowledge of Martina, who really knows her stuff and is always ready to accomodate every guest's request
Dropped in on Friday evening to celebrate a birthday and was lucky enough to meet Salvatore Calabrese. Not only welcomed like an old friend but shared some great cocktails with the ginger foam being memorable. Hopefully we will be going back soon
We arrived just before the business crowd, severely underdressed for the venue (post-jog attire) but desperately in need of cocktails. Was met by gracious, helpful, attentive, and unpretentious service. Delicious inspired and classic cocktails, elegant ambiance. Will return anytime I’m in London— li
Stumbled on this bar and loved it. The vibe was exceptional, beautifully furnished and lit. Great staff, great atmosphere.
Beautiful bar with excellent, creative drinks. Quiet on our Tuesday night visit. Drinks are a expensive but service was spectacular
Try the in-house special at the bar. You will love it. I call it head of state
As chic as it gets. Ironically the best value on the wine list is the Ruinart NV. Oh, and it's Kingsley Amis.
