Despite its claim to fame as the spiritual homeland of Mr Ian Fleming’s ever-suave and improbable spy, Dukes Bar has much to recommend it beyond its collection of 007 paraphernalia. Legendary bartender Mr Alessandro Palazzi shakes, stirs and creates alchemy in this cosy little lounge, and those in pursuit of the perfect martini won’t be disappointed – work your way from Mr Bond’s classic vesper to a lively truffle infusion and everything in between.
