Optional underground tours of Brunel's Grand Entrance Hall to the Thames Tunnel. Perfect date night or evening with mates. Fri/Sat 8,9,15,16,22 and 23 December. 5pm - 7.15pm or 7.30pm - 10pm. Booking essential. Only 40 seats per session. 

Voted one of London's best outdoor pop-up cocktail bars since 2012, it specialises in lovingly prepared seasonal botanical cocktails round a campfire made by Midnight Apothecary founder Lottie Muir AKA The Cocktail Gardener. The garden was built in 2012 as an oasis where guests are invited to cuddle up, watch the sun set surrounded by friends, lovers and local wildlife. 

This candle-lit rooftop oasis is situated at the Brunel Museum above Brunel's historic Thames Tunnel just steps from the river. Ingredients are grown in the roof garden or foraged close by to infuse and garnish the drinks with the menu changing frequently based on what's in season. 

The alcohol is carefully sourced using local brews and spirits where possible e.g. Jensen's gin, Hiver Honey Beer, Anspach and Hobday and Kernel Brewery. There is also plenty of fizz and wine available, including new additions from Sussex-based Rathfinny Estate, as well as non-alcoholic mocktails. All the proceeds from our Roof Garden tickets goes directly as a charitable donation to the Brunel Museum. 

Alongside the bar there is always a streetfood option down on the Terrace, this year Japanese fusion streetfood from Banzai Kitchen. 

They are the best kept secret in Rotherhithe and you can expect enjoy a unique, rustic atmosphere with a delicious drinks menu, firepits for hire, hot rum and whicky toddies, streetfood and marshmallows.
