Luxurious vibes & cocktails created by The Maestro himself

Surprise surprise, BarChick's in the naughty corner again. Welcome to Donovan Bar - a buzzing spot for decadent drinks in Brown's Hotel. You can throw an olive from here and hit The Wolseley and Le Caprice, so it’s just perfect for an aperitif before dinner. Only problem is that half of Mayfair has the same idea, so it can be a bit of a struggle getting a table. We say squeeze in and enjoy the buzz. 

Named after Terence Donovan, his photographs make the bar even more crowded with faces, but thankfully they're hot ones. Swinging sixties aside, we're more interested in the booze. There's more rums than Davy Jones’ locker, some classic bottles and a super smart wine list.  They pour the fizz at the table, the service is immaculate and the bar snacks are flowing and free! Hot date or rolling with a client? This place is sure to impress. 

Bonus points for knowing what to drink, we've got you. They're famous for their mega cocktail menus - on our last visit it was all about Our Way. This menu is all about elevating classics by combining timeless techniques with flavours that slap. Think Bellini Colada, Venetian aperitivo meets tropical getaway. It tastes like a holiday in a highball. Or give the Marimo Martini a go. It’s giving classic Bond but dry and mineral with a seaweed twist that’s more Kyoto than Casino Royale.  You're gonna love it.
