Sweeties

To get to Sweeties, you take a glass lift up to the 10th floor of The Standard, London hotel. As you rise, King’s Cross’ grey streets, trains, and pigeons melt away. And a fabulous world of super-sized disco balls, sequin jumpsuits, and crushed velvet sofas emerges. Mundane things don't matter here—what is laundry?—instead the priority at this lounge is getting a No Limits cocktail and drinking in the glittering London skyline. Dates in their best clothes and groups monopolising the sofas take pictures of themselves against the night sky, cheersing to a birthday. This is not a casual bar. This is somewhere to go big during happy hour and celebrate a special occasion with tasty, creative cocktails.
