Four floors.
Endless excuses to stay.
Two minutes from Liverpool Street, and a world away from a boring Tuesday. Cocktails, wine, and the kind of night your group chat won't stop talking about.
about us
Spitalfields' favourite cocktail & wine bar — ask anyone on Commercial Street
Tucked just off Commercial Street, a few minutes from Liverpool Street station, 68&SHANGHAI is four floors of very different energy under one roof.
Old Shanghai nightlife spliced with East London's don't-take-it-too-seriously spirit, a cocktail masterclass, a hidden wine cellar, a lounge that feels like a secret, and a £5 happy hour that's basically legendary round here.
Come for one drink. You won't leave after one drink.
IT'S TIME!
