The first B.Y.O.C bar was opened on 1st of February 2013 in Covent Garden, London by its owner Aleksey Nikulin, who wanted to create a bar that is fun, affordable, exceptional value for money and very different from others.

Small but perfectly formed B.Y.O.C Covent Garden with the spirit of 20's was found and since than it was always full house. Client centric attitude, amazing service by professional mixologists with great knowledge & passion towards cocktails making, together with an exclusive vintage style atmosphere, quickly made B.Y.O.C a huge success.

By 2016 B.Y.O.C. already have 5 bars, including bars in Camden, Soho, East (City of London), Brighton and Covent Garden.

Deep in the heart of Brighton’s historic South Lanes among the jewellers lies the second son of the BYOC family, that was opened in October 2013. It’s the gateway to a Narnia of cocktails as well as the antique furnishings and décor coating the venues of three floors with a 20's "Great Gatsby" flavour. BYOC Brighton boasts a fully functioning pipe organ for the occasional sing song, cinema screening silent classics and private snooker room fitted with a snooker table island bar for a truly interactive and unique experience of our guests.

There you will also find a piano, a double bass, a cello case unfolding in moments to produce cocktails rather than music. Entirely self-contained, efficient and entertaining. The show begins upon arrival with swing, blues and jazz playing as our ensemble unpack and causing a scene to catch everyone attention and inspire curiosity through out the crowd. BYCO Brighton is one of a kind bar with its own spirit.

The vintage black jack, roulette and poker tables around the room equipped with BYOC’s range of homemade ingredients are a bar, delivering a full house of flavour with every bespoke cocktail. So whether you get your flutter from a flush or French 75’, if you’re looking for a bar with a twist, you are in luck. BYOC Camden is waiting for you.

If lady luck were on your side and you happened to stumble through the mysterious black door across the road from Mornington Crescent station you would be forgiven for thinking you’d stepped into a 1920s casino. BYOC Camden was a third son and it has its own spirit, which is different from its brothers bars.

With a street that has had such a long association with music and entertainment, it comes with no surprise that BYOCs' latest venue fits right in. With the classically exhilarating first floor welcoming the larger groups & the glamorous second floor made ideal for intimacy, the warmly lit atmosphere accommodates all types of patrons. In order to get the full experience however, one must try the food. With our restaurant set comfortably on the ground floor you cannot imagine how well our chefs complement the cocktail experience. So whether you're planning to visit the theatre or just going to be wandering round Soho, make sure that one of your stops is BYOC.

The latest BYOC East London, located just a stone’s throw from The Gherkin and a few minutes’ walk from Liverpool Street. The new venue is hidden in the basement under the James Cochran Restaurant , that is the prohibition era, from dimly candle lit tables to homemade purees and mixers. When you bring a long your favourite tipple and our expert mixologists whip it into a cocktail perfectly paired to your palette.
This venue is perfect for a group booking or a solitary escape from the modern day chaos.

The prohibition in the United States during the 20s did great things for drinks and drinking culture. Bad tasting bathtub gins forced bartenders to find exciting new ways to flavour drinks and the police constantly on the prowl for bootlegged booze drove people underground, creating their own secret world that celebrated the sharing of drinks and company. The speakeasy was born.

At BYOC we strive to deliver everything that was great about the speakeasy without the danger of being busted by the coppers at any moment. Each client simply brings a bottle of his/her favourite spirit to one of our hidden away haunts, where we have our team of skilled bartenders, armed with an exciting array of homemade syrups, juices and bitters fix you something that really tickles your fancy, whether your taste buds are lusting after a classic or something a little more adventurous.

So for an evening of flavour, frivolity and fedoras unlike any other, look no further than B.Y.O.C. We call our selves the spirit of the speakeasy and we reward our regular patrons with our new loyalty app.
