Time Out crowned it the Best Bar in London for 2025, and the industry followed. Carina Soto Velasquez runs a Hackney Road space where restrained elegance meets outsized flavour—try The Flor, an olive-oil-washed vodka drink with fino sherry and distilled tomato water.

Equal Parts earned its One to Watch nomination from the 50 Best Cocktail Bars list and carries the trajectory of a bar heading for major global recognition.
