Satan's Whiskers | Short description | Satan's Whiskers is a cocktail bar in the Bethnal Green neighbourhood of East London. Founded in 2013 by bartenders and entrepreneurs Kevin Armstrong, Damian Benjamin, and Fraser Chapman, the bar specializes in classic cocktails using traditional bartending methods, with a menu that changes every day.
The bar's atmosphere is characterized by taxidermy décor on exposed brick walls, with a soundtrack mostly comprising old-school hip-hop.
Often described as "London's bartender's bar," Satan's Whiskers has been ranked the best bar in the United Kingdom by Morning Advertisers Top 50 Cocktail Bars three times, most recently in 2025, and it was named the world's 29th best bar in 2024 by The World's 50 Best Bars. |
Satan's Whiskers | History | History
Before co-founding Satan's Whiskers, Kevin Armstrong worked as a bartender at London bars Trailer Happiness and Milk & Honey London, the latter of which topped The World's 50 Best Bars twice. He launched Satan's Whiskers in November 2013 along with co-founders Fraser Chapman and Damian Benjamin, also seasoned London bartenders.
On the inspiration behind the bar, Armstrong said: "Opening Satan's Whiskers was in some ways a response to the types of bars that were being opened around that time. Many bars were more concept-driven or had started leaning more heavily into the techniques found in cuisine and fine dining. We wanted to do the opposite: to prove that great bars didn't need to be high concept, and the classic cocktails could still be relevant, especially if done well and in a good setting."
Armstrong cites the bar's daily-changing menu for its high bartender retention rates and sustained success over its first decade of business, remarking, "Making the same 10 or 20 drinks every day gets a little boring, but when the menu can change each day, our bartenders are always learning and perfecting recipes."
On 10 February 2025, Satan's Whiskers joined fellow London cocktail bar The Connaught Bar for a one-day pop-up at Sip & Guzzle, a cocktail bar in the Greenwich Village neighbourhood of Manhattan, New York City. |

Satan's Whiskers features a cocktail menu that changes on a daily basis, drawing from a catalogue of about 900 different drinks, with a focus on classic and modern classic cocktails. Customers are also encouraged to order off-menu cocktails due to the extensive drink catalogue. The bar also offers a food menu, as well as a variety of pre-batched bottled cocktails for takeaway orders. |
Satan's Whiskers | Reception | Reception
On The World's 50 Best Bars, Satan's Whiskers was ranked 29th in the world in 2024, dropping by one place from 28th in 2023. On their annual Top 50 Cocktail Bars list, Morning Advertiser named Satan's Whiskers the best bar in the United Kingdom in 2019, 2023, and 2025.
In May 2025, Condé Nast Traveller named Satan's Whiskers one of the best cocktail bars in London, calling the bar "a very London version of a New York dive bar" and noting, "Ask a local bartender for their favourite cocktail spot and you’ll hear the name Satan's Whiskers more often than not." In 2019, British GQ also listed Satan's Whiskers among the best cocktail bars in London, writing: "Got a hankering for a Mai Tai? Go on then. Love a White Russian? You’ll be hard-pressed to find somewhere that does one better. In fact, the same could be said about any of the hundreds of drinks memorised by the exceptionally talented bartenders, all of whom boast an encyclopaedic knowledge of recipes (a byproduct of the bar’s daily changing list)."
Time Out London gave Satan's Whiskers a 5-star review in 2015, writing: "The less intrepid Londoner may be put off by the street view of Satan’s Whiskers: it looks every bit a down-and-out dive bar. Inside though, it breaks the east London bar mould, with hip hop on the stereo, a smartly modish setting, vintage French posters on the wall and some of the best cocktails to be found in Bethnal Green's burgeoning booze scene." |

Srivari Chandrasekhar | short description | Srivari Chandrasekhar is an Indian scientist working in the area of Synthetic Organic Chemistry. He is currently serving as an advisor to PI Industries, and a distinguished professor at Gandhi Institute of Technology and Management (GITAM), and was previously the director of CSIR-Indian Institute of Chemical Technology, (Council of Scientific and Industrial Research) Ministry of Science & Technology, Government of India and former Secretary of the Ministry of Science and Technology, under the Ministry of Science and Technology (India).
Known for his contribution to various areas of chemistry, synthesis of pharmaceutical products and other biologically active natural products, Chandrasekhar is a fellow of all the three Indian Science academies, i.e., Indian Academy of Sciences,
National Academy of Sciences, and Indian National Science Academy.
In 2014, Chandrasekhar won the Infosys Prize in Physical Sciences for his contributions to synthetic organic chemistry with special focus on the synthesis of complex molecules from natural sources. |
Srivari Chandrasekhar | Early life and education | Early life and education
Born on 9 March 1964, Srivari Chandrasekhar did his bachelor's degree in science in 1982 and master's degree in science with a major in organic chemistry in 1985 from Osmania University. Subsequently, he enrolled for doctoral studies at IICT (awarded by Osmania University) and secured a Ph.D. degree in 1991. His post-doctoral studies were at the University of Texas Southwestern Medical Centre, Dallas, USA, and the University of Goettingen, Germany as Alexander von Humboldt Fellow.
He joined CSIR-IICT as a scientist in 1994 and became director in 2015. Later, he was appointed as the director of the DST in 2021, took charge of the DST on 13 December 2021. He served until 10 July 2023. During his tenure as a Secretary at DST, he led some of the major projects, including India's National Quantum Mission, aimed at developing quantum computing capabilities in laboratories and companies across India.

Srivari Chandrasekhar | Research | Research
Chandrasekhar's research focuses on the synthesis of organic compounds, biologically active natural products, especially of marine origin, and the development of ecologically viable green technologies useful for industrial applications in the pharmaceutical sector. His research led to the use of polyethylene glycol (PEG) as a Green Chemistry solution, synthesis of scarcely available natural products with important biological activity, and new molecular entities for affordable healthcare. For instance, he developed technologies for the synthesis of bedaquiline (an anti-tuberculosis drug), misoprostol (an anti-tumor drug that helps treat stomach ulcers), asenapine (drug for the treatment of schizophrenia), sertraline (antidepressant compound), and other drugs at a lower cost to make them affordable. |

Uncited statements, especially in the sections "Popular culture" and "Marriages and issue". Z1720 (talk) 19:00, 19 May 2025 (UTC)
I fixed the missing citations on Marriages and issue. I would be more concerned about the overreliance on primary sources. We have biographies of this man; but instead the text is doing wildly inappropriate WP:OR with things like and citing this to Tacitus' discussion starting . Either way, delist.
