This small storeont on the eastern end of Old Compton Street Soho was once Lab Bar, a groundbreakg pneer the craft cktail renaissance om the 1990s. There was much anxiety over what would bee of the space when shuttered, but the bi-level Swift has been embraced by cktail snobs and sual drkers alike. Upstairs, the bright space is an aperif-foced, early eveng bar; slk to the speakeasy-like basement later the night for whisky and appropriate nversatn. There’s live jazz and blu every Friday and Saturday eveng, too, if you n out of thgs to say.</p><p><strong>Cool. So who’s there?</strong><br/>Old Compton Street is one of London’s nghtit strips, once full of gay bars and illic drkg ns. The crowd that throngs here remas eclectic and mischief-seekg, pecially once the pre-theater typ have downed their oysters and martis and head out.</p><p><strong>How are the drks?</strong><br/>The upstairs foc is on low-ABV aperivi: try a classic sgroppo, a glass of prosec wh a dollop of lemon sorbet as a floater. Downtstairs, the emphasis is on heartier drks, albe wh an Italian accent, featurg Campari and bter orange Solerno.</p><p><strong>Worth orrg somethg to eat, too?</strong><br/>The food is limed to a few bar classics: rock or native oysters, Welsh Rareb, and steak tartare—all ial pre-theater appete-slakers.</p><p><strong>Did the staff do you right?</strong><br/>Bobby Hiddlton and his wife Mia Johansson, the bras behd this bar, worked at inic bars like Milk & Honey London and New York’s award-hoggg Dead Rabb before butg their own space. The service is as flawls as you’d expect, given their bluechip bartendg crentials.</p><p><strong>Wrap up: what are we g here for?</strong><br/>It’s the perfect date-night spot. Start upstairs the more formal, lighter bar, and head downstairs if that date is gog well.</p></div></div></div></div></div></div><div class="GridItem-buujkM cAxvBn grid--em grid-layout__asi"><div
