Quill Wine Bar

Description

Quill Wine Bar brings an elegantly eccentric charm to Borough Yards, transforming a former railway arch into a whimsical haven for wine lovers and cocktail chasers alike. Its atmospheric, higgledy‑piggledy interiors - complete with chandeliers, spiral staircases and a mezzanine tucked beneath vast brickwork - strike a balance between curated chaos and chic sophistication. The venue is part of the stylish Fables & Company family, and it proudly sports a golden quill above the door, guiding guests in from the cobbled walkways near the river. With its sprawling heated terrace, it’s also a prime people‑watching perch in the heart of SE1.

On the food front, Quill more than delivers. Chef Rob Wade - formerly of Michelin‑starred Chez Bruce—has crafted a broadly British menu featuring generous plates such as tea‑cured Scotch eggs, buttermilk fried chicken with burnt honey and tamarind chilli glaze, and the signature ‘golden boy’ grilled cheese that’s quickly become a favourite. The drinks offering is just as lovingly curated, showcasing bottles from across the globe with a strong emphasis on English wines, alongside standout cocktails like the Inkwell and an extensive non‑alcoholic list

Quill’s playful spirit extends beyond its food and drink. Expect interactive evenings, from anonymous ‘Secret Notes’ passed between tables to complimentary tarot readings and classic game nights that add an extra sparkle to the experience. It has also earned a Travelers’ Choice accolade on Tripadvisor, reflecting its warm service, inviting ambience and consistently glowing visitor reviews. Whether you’re after a late‑night glass of something special or a feast shared over flickering candlelight, Quill offers that magical mix of sophistication and mischief that makes a night out feel like a story worth telling.
