Kwãnt

Erik Lorincz spent eight years as Head Bartender at The Savoy's American Bar before opening his own place on Stratton Street in 2023. Kwãnt runs an omakase-style five-course cocktail tasting through a Mayfair address that, at No. 79 on the World's 50 Best Bars, punches well above its age. Lorincz's training at both The Savoy and Connaught surfaces in the precision of each sequence, structured progressions that move from aperitif to nightcap with the pacing of a kaiseki meal. This is author-driven bartending at its most controlled.
