Reverend JW Simpson "Welcome to my house, please make yourself at home."
- The Reverend "Welcome to my house, and please make yourself at home.
(261)

My disciples Kelley, Antoine, Alex and Marco are all budding experts in their fields, and together with lead disciple Mikey, they are well-prepared to take you on a journey through the world of convivial libations, spirits and wines. I've always had a particular affinity with bartenders and the like. My early life was spent traveling the world, sometimes for pleasure, other times for duty. From my

time in New York, where I once lived above a bar and passed time in conversation with the staff and colourful patrons; through to my travels around the globe; I have supped and spoken of – and sometimes even witnessed the birth of – cocktails and mixed drinks that were to become the classics of the modern world. Before my latter years as a cleric I considered myself privileged to peak behind this veil in all its glory - From an Aviation to a Zombie, I've tried them all. Now, my disciples are bridging the gap between the traditional and the classic with the modern and cutting edge in order to bring you interesting and innovative beverages for your imbibing pleasure. We very much look forward to entertaining yourself and your friends over a drink and an anecdote or three, and becoming part of your omnibibulous adventure."

Please welcome to the stage...
"Clearly a Twist" our twist-less martini
V.J.O.P
Lemon Drizzle Gin
Homemade English wine vermouth
homemade ultra citrus solution
Regan's Orange bitters
Strega rinse

A martini of contrasts, with visual simplicity hiding a clean yet complex palate, and celebrating our drive towards sustainable service. Our vermouth is made from English wine that could no longer be served, fortified with Somerset cider brandy and flavoured with hand foraged wormwood and discarded citrus trimmings alongside other botanicals. Our ultra citrus solution is an intense flavour bomb giving a second turn around the sun to garnish trimmings from other elements of service.

A clear winner!

Need we say more?
A cool oasis under London's baking streets, filled with icy drinks and a warm welcome.
Take advantage of the lack of football to indulge in a mid-week cocktail or 3 from our Iconique menu.

Every menu at is a labour of love. From the arduous task of tasting delicious products, to the utter trial of putting together said products in stunning glassware in a beautifully air-conditioned bar, we suffer so that you can sip away at our newest creations! Our “Iconique” menu takes drinks that have made bars, brands and bartenders icons in the drinks world and beyond, and approaches them from a new angle- either with modern techniques and palates in mind or from the singular approach to drinks, flavour and sustainability so beloved of the team!
With stunning serves featuring some of our favourite booze, including , , , , , and amongst others, it’s time to rediscover London’s best-kept secret!

It’s been a long time coming but our new menu “London Calling” is available here at the Reverend!
Taking inspiration from our fair city and showcasing some well trodden and iconic spots alongside alcoholic looks at some less travelled locales, our new list is everything you’ve come to expect from the team!

It’s International Women’s Day and high time we celebrated the superhuman that is Alex Turner. She keeps the unseen plates at the Reverend spinning; filling tables, arranging bookings, parties and tastings, and keeping our team firmly rooted in their task of providing great drinks, day after day, menu after menu! This would seem like an epic task on its own but not for Alex. She took lockdown by the scruff of it neck, starting her own business, driving it from strength to strength, winning public and professional plaudits for her innovative and entertaining dance classes. Again that would seem more than enough for one mere mortal to handle, but not for our dauntless hero! She’s been planning for the Reverend’s future by expanding the bar team, one baby at a time!
Please show your appreciation for Alexandra Turner - force of nature!
