*ZACATECAS - smoky, spicy, earthy. 🌵🔥*
Our new menu is officially out, and we’re kicking things off with a little taste of Mexico.
Meet Zacatecas, a cocktail inspired by the deep, smoky, savoury flavours of Mexican adobo. BBQ-infused Elijah Craig straight rye wh***ey meets Montelobos Espadín mezcal, Ancho Verde poblano chilli liqueur, fresh lime, Mexican oregano honey and epazote. A little smoke, a little heat, plenty of herbs, and a whole lot of character.
Finished with pickled cucumber sorbet, bringing a refreshing, tangy contrast to all that depth.
Inspired by the landscapes, ingredients and traditions of Mexico, this one is made for anyone who likes their cocktails with a bit of fire.
The new menu is here. Come find your next favourite. 🦅

Tuesday night. One small room. Cuban strings meet West African rhythm. 🎻🥁
This Tuesday, 22 September, Oriole welcomes back world-renowned violinist Omar Puente and his trio for one intimate night in Covent Garden.
Havana-trained and a longtime collaborator of Courtney Pine and Nigel Kennedy, Omar plays an explosive fusion of Cuban roots, jazz and classical virtuosity. One minute it’s a son montuno, the next a jazz standard turned inside out.
Joining him is a very special guest: Senegalese percussion master Mamadou Sarr. He’s the featured percussionist for Baaba Maal and Sona Jobarteh, and he has played stages around the world, including a private performance for the Obamas.
With them:
🎹 Fernando Depestre, piano
🎸 Jimmy Martinez, bass
Two musical worlds, a few feet from your table, with a cocktail in hand thanks to the event sponsors - Hendrick’s

🍽 £60 with a three-course dinner and premium stage-front seats (these go first)
