PAUSE Drinks: Bōkan Bar

Located on the 38th floor of the Novotel Canary Wharf,

Bōkan Bar has just launched a new cocktail menu.

This is inspired by Docklands, the local area.

With 360-degree views of London,

it offers some of the best views in town.

I jumped straight on the Monkey King,

Mount Gay Black Rum, banana, hazelnut and bitters.

I then went for their newest edition, Alexander the Great.

It’s a sweet combination of Arbikie AKS Gin, Aperol,

Cinnamon syrup, lime juice, Rosemary and tonic foam.

Although a large venue, each seating area feels intimate.

I was sat by a corner window. The happy and informative staff were

on hand to make recommendations. I rarely need advice on cocktails but

the menu is new and signature to the bar. Created by Bar Manager Peter Merheb

and his mixology team. I wish I was at that tasting!

Bōkan offers a range of bar snacks. There is also a restaurant on the floor below.

Do try and get there before sunset as it’s stunning and makes for a perfect setting for evening drinks and dinner.

I recommend for a celebration. Opened till late every night. See below for more info.
