NINE LIVES BAR

Nine Lives is the latest neighbourhood bar to grace Bermondsey's streets, behind the doors to an old Victorian basement you’ll find a ‘tropicalifornication’ vibe & cosy décor. The concept behind this spot is simple; great tasting drinks in a comfortable environment all made in an ethical way. With the sustainable theme proving to be popular among bartenders and chefs, many of London's newest spots

use this as a core principle. The team at Nine Lives looks at this concept across the venue from the products they use & the recycling of waste through to the sourcing of equipment & furniture from vintage & second hand sources. All the waste that is created is sent to the venue's compost system, where it is broken down and then used to fuel the venue's herb and vegetable garden. Their music is as obsessed over as their drinks. In keeping with the ethos of salvation, their sound system is repurposed from a beautiful rig which until 3 years ago powered London Bridge’s legendary club, Cable. The sound it rewards them with is rich & warm, perfect for some after-dark drinking & dancing. Every Saturday, Nine Lives host a weekly party with a selection of DJs from some of London’s hottest labels - you won’t hear sounds like this on a sound-system like this with drinks like this anywhere else in London.

Something Funki is going down… 👀
Stepping in as the newly appointed General Manager of Nine Lives is industry legend, SERGIO LEANZA Sergio Leanza, aka the father of one of London’s most beloved cocktail bars, Funkidory.
Sergio is no stranger to Nine Lives. He was here when we first opened back in ‘17 and now, as we step into our ninth year, he’s come full circle and is back where it all began.
Bringing his drinks magic, big vision and exceptional hospitality to the bar.
We’re bloody lucky to have him with us for this next chapter so please come down, say hello and give our guy the welcome-back he deserves 🤝
