The Twisted Bar Pop-up under Absurd Bird in Spitalfields


Social media feed Twisted is launching a pop-up bar for a month under the Absurd Bird restaurant in Commerical Street, E1.  Open daily from 4th October to 5th November 2018, it will feature a range of Instagram-friendly cocktails, plus 'sharers' cocktails including a whole Espresso Martini Cafetiere.  There will also be live events, DJs, board games and more.

"Kicking off London Cocktail Week with a bang, social media food phenomenon turned delivery-only restaurant ‘Twisted’ is taking another step into offline experiences, launching a Twisted Bar Pop-Up on 4th October in a brand-new speakeasy setting, hidden underneath the Absurd Bird at 54 Commercial Street in Shoreditch.
The Twisted Bar Pop-Up promises to be quintessentially Twisted: against-the-grain and a lot of fun. The cocktails will be inventive, Instagrammably on-point and, most importantly, great to drink. Followers of Twisted Bar may even recognise one or two of them from their newsfeeds.
The menu will be comprised of eight eye-catching cocktails including a Lemon Drizzle G&T, Black Forest Negroni and a Cookies & Cream White Russian as well as four ‘Sharers’ including an Apple Pie Sangria and Espresso Martini Cafetiere.
Avid Instagrammers can film their cocktails changing colour before their eyes with the ‘Colour Changing Mojito’ or match the colour of their drink to suit the tone of their Instagram palette with ‘Taste-The-Rainbow Sour’ where the mixologist will let customers choose the colour of the Skittles used.
All cocktails are priced at £8.50 each and all Sharers at £25 each, with every Sharer sold donating £1 to Action Against Hunger. Happy Hour will run all week, starting at £5 from 5pm and up by a pound each hour until 8pm when they will go back to regular pricing (not including Sharers or food) whilst bar snacks and Twisted London fries will be on offer for hungry bellies.
The month will be peppered with exclusive events, featuring live music from established, London-based DJs on Friday and Saturday nights and on quieter nights guests can play board games or get a group along for the weekly quiz night.
Co-Head & Head of Food at Twisted, Tom Jackson, commented: “We’re excited to have another opportunity to take the Twisted brand offline. The cocktails we’ve created really reflect what Twisted is all about, they’re off-beat, don’t take themselves too seriously and of course, they’re delicious. We can’t wait for people to come to the bar and party with us!”
Co-Head & Head of Production at Twisted, Harry Bamber, said: “We really wanted to bring Twisted Bar to life and to allow people to interact with the brand they know from their screens. We felt this pop-up was a perfect opportunity to get like-minded people together, to have some fun and grab a few drinks”.
Private Booths will be available to hire for up to 10 people from Sunday - Thursday with a deposit of £5 per person required to hold the booking, which can be made via designmynight.com."
