Tucked away behind an unmarked door at 180 Shoreditch High Street, Bar Lina is a sleek Italian aperitivo bar offering a perfect blend of old-school glamour and modern sophistication. Located beneath the renowned Lina Stores Shoreditch, this hidden spot is ideal for intimate drinks in a luxurious setting.
A Chic, Intimate Escape
To find Bar Lina, enter through a discreet side door or head downstairs inside the restaurant—just push through the unmarked door. Inside, deep red walls, dim lighting, and a striking marble bar set the mood. Velvet sofas and hidden alcoves make it the perfect date-night spot, while the semi-private booth in the old bank vault is ideal for small groups.
Italian Cocktails, Reinvented
Bar Lina focuses on Italian spirits and house-made ingredients, from prickly pear syrup to coffee butter. The menu leans heavily on Negronis (six variations, including one with chamomile liqueur) and Spritzes, like a rosemary and honey-infused Campari with grapefruit and Prosecco. Signature creations include the Figlet, packed with fig liqueur and vanilla, and the Basilico, a gin martini twist with clarified milk, salt, and basil.
The Perfect Night Out
Pair your drinks with Italian bar snacks, or head upstairs for a full meal at Lina Stores. Whether you're after a romantic setting or just a damn good cocktail, Bar Lina is a must-visit for any Shoreditch nightlife lover.
