from Lush Life

Some birds sing at dawn to wake us up, but today we’re celebrating the birthday of a certain nocturnal songbird whose award-winning cocktails, wonderful hospitality, and sultry nightly soundtrack have been keeping London warbling for 15 years.Today we’re turning our attention to Nightjar, the Shoreditch bar that rewrote London’s late-night playbook. Joining me are the brilliant duo behind it: Roisin Stimpson and Edmund Weil. Long before Nightjar became a fixture on the World’s 50 Best Bars list, the Top 500 Bars, and every other list, Rosie and Edmund had a dream and the drive to create a place that brought together all their passions.All their bars, Nightjar, Oriole, and Swift, hold a special place in my heart, and you will see why.
