Where to get the cheapest gin and tonic near central London Tube stops

G&T fans, listen up: International Gin and Tonic Day will be celebrated on April 9.

To help you celebrate in London, Lixir Drinks has put together a map of where to get the cheapest gin and tonic near a central tube station — perfect for a cheap bar crawl.

And with April 10 being a bank holiday, the fact that Gin and Tonic Day falls on a Sunday this year shouldn’t be a barrier to having a good time.

So if you fancy heading into Zone 1 for a G&T this weekend, but don’t want to break the bank, take a look at the map below.

The cheapest gin and tonic in zone 1 costs just £3.25 (Lixir)

Lixir Drinks found that the cheapest gin and tonic in central London can be found at The Huntley near Euston Square Station, where Tanqueray and tonic costs only £3.25.

For gin lovers on the opposite side of the river, The Ring near Southwark station offers a beefeater and tonic for £6.10. This is the cheapest price south of the river in zone one.

Pubs near St Paul’s Station and The Courtfield at Earl’s Court Station will cost gin and tonic lovers £10 for Beefeater or Bombay as the cheapest options.

According to the data, for those seeking a bargain this gin and tonic day, the most common “cheap” gin across zone one is Beefeater. This costs an average of £7.24 for a single tonic, with the cheapest pub for a single Beefeater and tonic found at The Angel, next to Angel station at £5.41.

The second most common gin is Bombay, costing an average of £7.76 for a single with tonic in London.

Regarding the methodology, Matt Mahatme, co-founder at Lixir, said: “As creators of our own tonic waters and mixers, we created this map because of our love for gin and tonic so we wanted to show people the ultimate pub crawl for gin and tonic day this year.

“To gather the data, we called the nearest pub to each tube stop in zone one and asked how much they charge for their cheapest gin and tonic, and what type of gin this is. Our research shows buying a gin and tonic at every pub on our map would set you back £365.65.

“The tube map of London is an iconic design, and we acknowledge that this is not an official tube map but instead a creative design by the Lixir team. We hope gin and tonic lovers enjoy our spin on zone one’s locations this Gin and Tonic day.”
