Discount Suit Company, Cocktail bar in Tower Hamlets, London, United Kingdom.
Discount Suit Company is a basement bar in Tower Hamlets located in a former tailor's storage room. Exposed brick walls, vintage furniture, and close seating arrangements create an intimate setting for drinks and social gatherings.
The space originally served as a tailor's storage area reflecting London's garment trade history. It was converted into a bar in 2014 while keeping its industrial character.
The venue celebrates Northern Soul and vintage rock music culture through carefully curated playlists, themed events, and retro interior design elements that honor musical traditions alongside classic cocktail craftsmanship and presentation styles.
The bar opens on weekdays from 5 p.m. and stays open later on weekends past midnight. Book ahead if you visit during live music events or busy periods.

London houses a notable number of unconventional drinking establishments and concealed bars that extend well beyond the ordinary pub experience. In former Underground stations, converted Victorian lavatories and behind unassuming facades, resourceful operators have created spaces that transport visitors to different eras and worlds. These venues often require a degree of discovery: entrances hide behind refrigerator doors, in apparent detective agencies or through small red doors that only the informed notice. The range extends from historic vaulted cellars like Gordon's Wine Bar, which has existed since 1890, to themed concepts such as Cahoots, housed in a disused 1940s Underground shaft. The Attendant uses a former Victorian public toilet as a café, while bars like Evans & Peel Detective Agency guide their guests through a role-playing scenario before granting access to the actual establishment. At higher elevations, Duck & Waffle and the bar at Heron Tower offer views across the city from the 40th floor. Most of these establishments concentrate in neighborhoods such as Soho, Shoreditch and the West End, where traditional pubs sit alongside experimental cocktail bars and specialized coffeehouses.
