Dirty Bones team to open first bar

The team behind restaurant brand Dirty Bones is set to launch Roxanne, the group's first bar and the world’s 'first hip hop speakeasy'.

It will open in London’s Shoreditch in February 2022, offering a taste of 1980s New York, inspired by the city’s block parties and music.  

The venue is tucked away on a Shoreditch side street, accessible via a secret door next to Dirty Bones’ Club Row site. Guests climb the stairs and enter into a lounge space. There is a stage for DJs and live performances.

The name ‘Roxanne’ was inspired by a unique moment in hip hop history, The Roxanne Wars: a musical battle between two famed artists of the same name.  

A drinks-focused menu will include classic cocktails and new twists like the Call Me Clementine with Tanqueray gin, Fair kumquat liqueur, clementine and rosemary, as well as a selection of clarified cocktails.
