The Drop

A neighbourhood wine and beer bar set within the Grade II listed 1850s coal drops, brick and cast-iron structures with attached rail viaducts converted by Heatherwick Studio in 2018. Relatively intimate rather than voluminous, but the exposed Victorian masonry is genuine and close at hand, with seating under the arches or outside on a festoon-lit terrace. Walk-in only, from the same group as Barrafina and El Pastor a few metres away.
