Cocktails with a theatrical edge
Down a mysterious staircase, the lucky few will find our late-night bar in the heart of theatreland. Decadent and flamboyant—just like its namesake, the opera diva Dame Nellie Melba—it is the consummate late-night experience, where the sumptuous décor is matched by the headiness of the cocktails.
Open Monday to Saturday, from pre-theatre till post-theatre, until late.


“Nellie’s Tavern, the sumptuous, flirty, semi-secret bar in the cellar of the freshly reopened Simpson’s in the Strand, designed for theatregoers, the late-night fashion crowd and, really, anyone looking for a stiff drink after dark.”
