There’s only one place you can drink right now: Your home. But if you’re anything like us, the only drinks you have indoors include a six-pack of Fosters someone brought to your housewarming party last January, and a bottle of WKD whose origin story is unknown.

So here are places that can stock your bar via delivery. Even though you can’t go drink at these restaurants and bars, you can still support them (and drink something great) by ordering from them. We’ll keep updating this guide with more information - so stay tuned, and stay well.

This little Italian wine bar and shop on Leonard Street in Shoreditch have launched a new #wineonwheels service. In true Italian fashion they’re delivering across London on their trusty Vespa, with countless independent bottles to choose from. You can also get involved in their £25 aperitivo pack with artisanal cheese and ham.

Hacha is home to our favourite margarita in London. We once referred to it as ‘an astonishing delicious feat of alcohol alchemy’ and now you can get their crystal clear mirror margarita delivered to your front door. Each 500ml bottle is priced at £35 but you’ll need to get two bottles to qualify for delivery.


This spot is Permanently Closed.

Fun fact: P. Franco is one of our highest rated restaurants in London. Here’s another: they’re now delivering their wines across London from their online shop. Look out for their mixed 6 wine selection for £77.

Quality Wines has a special place in our heart. We regularly hit up this excellent wine shop and grocery for our lunch, a bottle of something nice for the weekend, or several slices of ginger loaf. Now, you can get curated cases of wine delivered every Friday. Plus, they’re holding regular virtual wine tastings.


St. John, a restaurant that we’d usually visit for any and every occasion, has got any and every one of your home wine needs covered with delivery throughout the UK. Their mixed cases range from the rosé-focused pink set to the classic St John 12 bottle collection for £215, and you can also order their surprisingly affordable boxed wines that start at £38 for three litres.


The Sun Tavern is part of the same family of drinking dens as our East End favourite Discount Suit Company and you can now hit up their online shop for everything from big bottled cocktails to a ‘lucky dip’ box of beers. Their Quarantini Kit for £30 comes with 4 large cocktail serves of either negroni, boulevardier, or old fashioned. The best part is they’re doing free same day delivery too.


There are several advantages to ordering your wine from Albertine. First up, you get to support one of the nicest wine bars in west London. Next, you get a great choice of wines, ranging in price from a single bottle for £15 through to a crate of the ‘fine and rare’ stuff for £200. Finally, you can add a wide range of choice products to your order, from fresh baguettes through to pots of terrine, and entire ready meals.


Whisky, whisky, and more whisky. If you like the sound of that then place an order with old school whisky shop Milroys. This Soho spot is not only delivering across London, but also across the UK so it’s worth keeping in mind whether you’re after a highland malt for your Friday night in or something special from the ’90s to send as a gift.


Some people (us) feel a little (very) guilty for buying a third consecutive bottle of red in a week. Lockdown, right? But now, thanks to Berkmann Wine Cellars you can feel good about ordering any amount of wine, because for every order you make, 12.5% of your spend will be donated to the hospitality industry. They’ve already raised over £40,000 and as they usually supply London’s top restaurants there are plenty of excellent bottles to choose from.


The very fancy wine folk behind Hide’s enormous and seriously impressive wine list are doing delivery. For orders of six bottles or more said delivery is also free. There are around 6,000 wines to choose from, a fully stocked spirits boutique, and even the odd bottle for around the £20 mark.


Lady of the Grapes is one of our favourite West End wine bars, and we could honestly order any one of their five curated wine boxes right now. If we had to choose one it would be their new survival mixed box at £100 containing a half-dozen bottle from across Spain, Portugal, and France made exclusively by female winemakers or couples. We’d also order their Survival Artisan Cheese Box, because cheese. Order here.


We’re already missing Crate Brewery’s sourdough pizzas but thanks to their website there’s no need to miss their craft beers. Everything from their core lagers to limited edition flavoured beers are available online, with their 20-bottle case options falling around the £40 mark.


For the first time ever, you can now buy London Shell Co’s own-brand sparkling white wine to enjoy at home. A full case is available for £117 on this website, using the password Duch3ss-sTar - very cryptic, we know. Put on that old fancy dress hat you pretend you don’t own, cook a nice piece of fish, get your flatmate to make questionable river noises, and your Wednesday night at sea is sorted.


On Top Cuvée’s website you can now order everything from a wine ‘survival pack’ that’s £60 for six bottles, to their very boozy Spread The Joy pack that you can send to your mates. There’s also a Tayer x Top Cuvée gimlet collaboration for £12.


Bar Douro is a little Portuguese restaurant in the City that we’d usually recommend for a laidback, romantic date. Now, we’re recommending them for Portuguese wines delivered straight to your front door. You can pick anything from their curated wine list to collect, or go for a six-bottle case with free delivery. Plus, for every bottle purchased they’re donating £1 to Hospitality Action.


Rock Leopard very well might sound like our dads’ inevitable Def Leppard cover band, but it’s actually a craft beer company based in South East London. If you happen to live in Bexley, Greenwich, or Dartford you can get quick, local delivery. But don’t worry, they’re also delivering across London and the rest of the UK from their online shop.


Pina Colada Swizzle is not only our new rap name, it’s also one of the many cocktails you can order from this West Hampstead bar. If you live within three miles you can get same day delivery on everything from a classic Cosmopolitan to their gin and apricot Archangel mix. Live further afield? Don’t worry, they’re shipping nationwide too.


Sadly, Small Beer isn’t producing teeny tiny beers for rodents - although honestly we’d love to see Remy the rat on the lash - they actually produce low-alcohol brews. You can order everything from a refreshing lager to a tropical-finish pale ale, or even a selection gift pack. Plus, not only are they delivering nationwide, their beers are vegan-friendly too.


If you’ve decided that your quarantine project is going to be getting into natural wines then we salute you. And we also recommend you check out Highbury Library’s online shop. They specialise in small scale producers and their natural wines have handy ratings so you can start with a more conventional 1 and work your way up to a ‘funky’ 5. Plus, you can drop them a question about any of their wines before you buy.


This Covent Garden wine bar and restaurant have released their own wine-delivery app called Drop Wines. The slogan is ‘want the power to summon wine to wherever you are?’. Our answer is a resounding, 'yes'. Chosen by experts, they’ll deliver their wines to your home, picnic, or mate’s garden. Download the app here.


Aptly named Bottle Apostle have shops in Victoria Park Village, Crouch End, Clapham, and Primrose Hill. If you happen to live in any of the above then you can swing by to pick them up between 11 and 6pm, or simply order in from delivery apps.

Vins is a little neighbourhood wine bar that, thanks to their low-intervention wines and comfortable feel, we have a proper soft spot for.

Holloway Road’s #1 wine and cheese hangout is delivering all over London. Email info@provisionslondon.co.uk⁠ or hit this link to get wine, cheese, charcuterie - the lot - straight to your door.


Low Intervention Wines

$$$$

Order before 1.30pm for next-day delivery.


The Proofing Room is a speakeasy-style basement bar from the people behind one of our favourite drinking spots, The Vault. You can now get a bunch of their cocktails delivered in batch, including a coconut butter old fashioned, their big highball, and a tequila and habanero fizz. Princes start at a tenner and if you happen to live within a three-mile radius of Commercial Street, same-day delivery is free.


The Vintner are an independent wine merchant that are not only delivering everything from chenin blancs to riojas across London, they’re also delivering nationwide - and the best part is that there are plenty of options around the £10 mark. Heads up, they’re also donating 100% of their profits to Hospitality Action if you order between now and Easter Day.


If you’re after natural wines that are not only delivered across London but across the UK - yes, you do still have to send your aunt a birthday present - then Modal Wines is your friend. They specialise in independent winemakers and their online shop is split into useful sections like ‘Rustic Italian Reds’, ‘Intro The Wild’, ‘Playing It Safe’, and our personal favourite, ‘Keeping It Cool’.


To be honest, when it comes to Tillingham Wines we’re not sure whether to drink their bottles of wine, or frame them. We have a feeling we’ll end up going for the former, but this English wine company make some seriously good looking natural wines. You can order from their online shop, which includes helpful tasting notes like ‘sexy oak’ and ‘chablis from another mother’.

40 Maltby Street is a cute wine bar near London Bridge serving low-intervention wines from select makers around Europe, and you can get those wines delivered to your door from Gergovie Wines. For £9 (for up to 12 bottles), they’re aiming for overnight delivery to most addresses in the UK. Just make sure you get an order to them before dispatch days (Tuesday and Thursday). N.b. if you order 36 bottles or more - and we don’t think you should rule that out - delivery is free, so get ordering.


As the wine brains behind Brixton’s Salon and Peckham’s Levan, Salon Wine Store know their wines. That’s why it’s totally okay by us that they’re shipping mixed cases all over south London, elsewhere in London for a small delivery surcharge, and further afield for a larger delivery surcharge. There are four options, from Fun (at £70 for six bottles) all the way up to Off The Charts (£210) which they promise contains a curated selection of six iconic, elegant, and classy wines. Order here.

Heads up, they’re covering the following postcodes: NW1, N1, NW3, NW5, NW8, WC1.

This little Dalston wine bar and shop are delivering across Hackney, Highbury, and Islington. Plus, they have a very handy ‘under £20’ section.


200 wines will likely become the name of our memoir but for now, it’s also how many different bottles you can get delivered from Newcomer Wines.

This little bottle shop and deli on Francis Road is Leyton is offering collection or local delivery on their whole range. They’re only open till 5pm, but they are open seven days a week. Give them a call on 020 8556 2444 to see what they can hook you up with.


West
