I do hope that you will enjoy this season’s cocktails. Many have been

drunk at The Goring since 1910, and some are enhanced versions of

our original creations. Where possible, cocktails are enriched with

infusions of herbs grown in our own gardens as well as locally created

mixers, liqueurs and spirits from fellow Royal Warrant holders.
