Drag the strip
After eleven
Velvet Eleven is a cocktail lounge behind a heavy curtain: forty seats, deep red booths, a long bar lit from underneath and a sound system that was clearly the first thing we paid for. The drinks are serious. The room is not.
Come at golden hour for a quiet martini and a plate of olives. Come back after eleven when the lights drop, the records get louder and the bartenders start pouring things that aren't on any menu.

The pour

Gin, black fig and smoked rosemary, stirred and poured over one clear block of ice. The drink the bar is named for.

Muddled mint, cucumber and tonic, built tall. Zero proof, all the ceremony.

Three small pours side by side: a martini, an old fashioned and the house sour. For the undecided.

Tell us a spirit and a mood. We'll make something that isn't on the menu.
This week
DJ Nyla digs through crates of seventies soul and funk. Records only, all night.
Live trio from eleven. Standards, slow-burners and the occasional surprise request.
Marco Vee on the decks, deep house until the lights come up.
Slow jazz on the speakers, candles on every table, and the quietest pour of the week.
Every day, five to seven: golden hour. Half the lights, half the noise, the best seat in the house.
Private hire
Birthdays, launches, engagements and leaving drinks. Book the back booths for a group or take over the whole room on a quiet night. We'll write a short cocktail list just for you and keep the playlist on your side.
Small room, big sound. Booths are first come, first served; the bar is always open to walk-ins.
| Mon – Tue | Dark |
| Wed – Thu | 5pm – 1am |
| Fri – Sat | 5pm – 2am |
| Sunday | 5pm – midnight |
Before you come
No. Booths are first come, first served and the bar is always held for walk-ins. Groups can book the back booths ahead.
Dress like you're going somewhere. No suits required, no sportswear after nine.
Small plates for sharing: olives, truffle fries and a cheese and charcuterie board for the booth.
Our zero-proof list gets the same care as the cocktails. Ask the bar for something off-menu and they'll build it.
Curtain's open
