The Peony bar is Opium’s hidden gem, nestled somewhere within our labyrinthine corridors, behind the red curtain on the second floor. Peony has very different feel to the rest of the venue – it’s the Yang to Opium’s Ying and is often considered the most romantic room in the building.

Great service from the team who were very attentive throughout our booking, especially as we were a big group. Cocktails, drink and food were all delicious and we all had a great time! Some of us stayed at the bar a bit later and were able to keep the same area. All in all a fantastic night!
The bar itself got very warm as it was a small space but we asked the air con to be turned up which was obliged.
