This 007 pop-up is running for a limited time only.
With the festive season fast approaching, the capital will transform into a wonderland of sorts. But before things get all Christmasy with hues of red and green, London's giving you a chance to sip on your favourite drinks in try spy style. Burlington Arcade is transforming into a James Bond Bar with a limited-time 007 pop-up.
Running until 31 December, this James Bond Bar will pay homage to 007 on the 60th anniversary of Goldfinger. Walking through this shopping street, you'll be greeted by three golden sculptures suspended overhead, giving the nod to the classic Aston Martin DB5 — Bond's ride of choice. If you look down, you'll find a custom-made carpet etched with quotes from Goldfinger, setting the scene for what lies ahead.
Inside the arcade, two stylish bars serve cocktails inspired by Bond's well-known tastes. Featuring spirits like Belvedere, Macallan, and Bollinger Champagne, the bar aims to transport visitors into the glamorous world of espionage. Whether you fancy a Vesper Martini or want to try something crafted just for this pop-up, the cocktails reflect Bond's signature style—sophisticated and bold.
But the experience isn't just about the drinks. The 007 pop-up allows Bond fans to explore a range of exclusive memorabilia, from Oddjob's deadly hat to Goldfinger's actual golf shoes, many of which are being displayed for the first time ever. Props like Fort Knox gold bars, the spy-hole clock from Goldfinger's private plane, and Omega timepieces will also be on display.
For those looking to take home a piece of the Bond legacy, head upstairs to the 007 boutique. Here, you'll find a range of exclusive, limited-edition items.
So, if you're ready to live like Bond for an evening, head to the 007 pop-up in Burlington Arcade. And remember, when you order your drink, it better be shaken, not stirred.
