Welcome to the Toki Listening Bar. Music has always been a core part of the Seed Library offering. And this month, in partnership with The House of Suntory, we launch the Toki Listening Bar. Throughout November, we’ll have a menu of five House of Suntory cocktails - including three Toki Whisky serves - and a roster of DJs every Thursday (in addition to our Friday and Saturday programming) curated by My Analog Journal. And that’s not all - on November 22nd, we’re welcoming acclaimed bartender Hidetsugu Ueno, from Bar High Five in Tokyo, with a House of Suntory menu and a highball Omakase experience, created by Ueno himself. Join us every Wednesday - Monday throughout the month for an immersive Japanese experience - auditory, sensory, and most importantly – delicious.
Book NowOn Sunday 3 December, we are welcoming our final guests of 2023 - all the way from Canada - Bisou Bisou! Gregory Buda honed his trade at The Dead Rabbit, where he worked for eight years as the director of education, training manager, and senior bartender. He has travelled the world delivering masterclasses and seminars on topics from hospitality design, techniques, and menu creation to systems for operations and management. And in 2023, with his business partner Rob Weeks, he opened his own venue in the heart of Old Montréal. A small cocktail and apéritif bar, Bisou Bisou offers inclusive hospitality, highlighting low abv and spirit-free cocktails, sherry, vermouth, and brandy, striving to bring apéritif culture to life using the ingredients and flavours of the Mediterranean. Join Greg and Rob as they step behind our bar, from 5pm - 9pm, with tasty cocktails and a Canadian welcome.
We're stocked to announce that our My Neighbours The Dumplings food residency will now be live until the end of January 2024, giving you three extra months of delicious dumpling goodness!
Already a big hit in Clapton and Victoria Park, they'll also be taking over our Seed Library kitchen for a three-month stint, showcasing their signature dim-sum dishes, using fresh produce from the UK.
Alongside those, you'll have plenty of our signature cocktails to try as well as the exclusive Black Vinegar Gimlet, featuring potato vodka, peach oolong and black vinegar, perfect to pair with those limited-edition dishes.
Open Monday through to Sunday til late, with our East London friends at Diggers Dozen spinning on the weekends. We recommend booking to save a space but we’ll always try to accommodate walk-ins.
