For the next season of Nessa’s Salon of the Unruly, we’re collaborating with Campari to turn Thursday nights into something worth talking about.
From 4 September, 7pm to midnight, for eight weeks only, we’re hosting Nessa’s Negroni Lounge – a series where music, cocktails, and Soho’s restless energy collide. We’re bringing together British artists, DJs, and three exclusive British‑inspired Negronis, created with Campari and crafted by our bar team.
Alongside the Lounge, we’re also hosting a series of complimentary, intimate Negroni masterclasses and artist-led workshops, in partnership with Campari. Held just upstairs at 1 Warwick (our private members’ House), these one-hour sessions go deeper into the art of the world’s most iconic aperitivo and the creative practices of local and emerging artists. Guided by Campari experts and special guests, each class explores heritage, balance and imagination, with a distinctly Nessa twist.
Explore the upcoming September classes below and keep an eye out for more dates arriving in October.
This creative collaborative series runs throughout September & October. Spaces are limited, register for the guestlist below.
Familiar, but with a twist; much like Nessa herself.

NESSA'S NEGRONI LOUNGE COCKTAILS
Exclusively for Nessa’s Negroni Lounge, we’ve created three cocktails in collaboration with Campari, designed to exist only here & now. They’re inventive reinterpretations of the Italian Negroni, infused with British character and contemporary flair. Each of these cocktails uses Ramsbury Gin as a base, a premium English spirit that reflects our local terroir. We’ve layered in uniquely British ingredients to give every drink its own twist:
The Bitter Earl (Earl Grey)
Aromatic and modern, shaped by the depth of Earl Grey tea and honey.
Peak & Flow (Rhubarb)
Bright and herbaceous, lifted by crisp rhubarb.
Red Handed (Cherry)
Deeply fruity, enriched with sloe berries and dark cherry notes.
This menu is a limited edition. Come and discover them while you can.
TRIPLE NEGRONI FLIGHT + NIBBLES £40
For two exclusive months during our Negroni Lounge series, enjoy a Flight of 3 British‑inspired Negronis (each reimagining Campari’s classic bite with a distinctly British twist) paired with homemade pork scratchings or BBQ crisps, for just £40.
A steal when the usual RRP is £15 per Negroni. Available only on event nights throughout September & October 2025, this offer is a celebration of cocktail craft, Soho energy, and creative indulgence.
ART TRAIL EXCLUSIVE: LINA YOKOYAMA POSTCARD AT NESSA
As part of our Nessa’s Negroni Lounge series, we’re showcasing a special piece from artist Lina Yokoyama, created exclusively for the occasion.
Her artwork (available as a limited-edition postcard gift with every Negroni purchased from September through October) draws inspiration from the rich, unruly conversations that unfold within our walls. Grounded in the spirit of the Bloomsbury Group, Lina’s piece captures the depth, intimacy, and quiet intensity of dialogue shared over a Negroni.
It’s part of our ongoing artwork trial, and a tribute to the cocktail as catalyst for connection, for expression, for something a little more lasting.
