Dirty Martini (Covent Garden - London)

May 29th, 2007 · 2 Comments

Dirty Martini

Dirty Martini is another of these basement bars which populate the lively London area of Covent Garden. It tries to pass itself off as another very private very exclusive bar displaying black banners outside and burly bouncers to ward off the “Riff Raff” of which there is none in Covent Garden.
