About
To have a great bar you need a great bar team, a close-knit team who work together in a confined long narrow space to quickly and efficiently serve consistent drinks. This team camaraderie shines when bar teams compete against each other for the Soho House Cocktail Cup. Add vocal members' support for their house team and the atmosphere during the global final is akin to a football match.
The annual Soho House Cocktail Cup is open for entries from any team of bartenders working in any bar or restaurant in the Soho House Group internationally.
The finalists in the 2019 global final competed head-to-head on 21st October at London's White City House for the chance to win:
- A VIP trip to the home of Woodford Reserve in Kentucky, USA where they will see first-hand how the whiskey is made.
- A party for their entire bar team.
- A feature on this website and most importantly bragging rights for being the proud holders of The Soho House Cocktail Cup.
