It can’t be denied that chocolates and marshmallows are a staple when it comes to the festive season and All Bar One have created a cocktail menu heavily inspired around them.
I recently visited the All Bar One branch in Holborn to sample their new Christmas cocktails.
This year, the chain has launched a limited-edition festive menu in partnership with Absolut vodka and chocolate-mallow specialists Mallow & Marsh.
The seasonal drinks including the Berry Mallow Sour, Winter Mallow Margarita, Snowdrift Mallow Latte, the Choc-Cherry Shot Paddle and even a no-alcohol Mountain Mallow Sour hit bars nationwide from 12 November 2025 with prices starting from £12.50.
With 50 bars across the UK including about 16 locations in London All Bar One is a safe bet when it comes to festive food and drinks during the festive period whether it’s a pre-theatre tipple or a festive catch up.
I tried two of the festive serves the first being the Berry Mallow Sour was a lovely balance of tangy and sweet, the tartness of the raspberry syrup and sour mix complemented by a little hit of dark chocolate covered raspberry mallow made for a surprisingly refreshing yet indulgent cocktail.
The Winter Mallow Margarita turned out to be the dark horse of the night, I wasn’t expecting it to become my favourite, but its sweet, slightly punchy flavour topped with that chocolate-mallow finish.
Alongside the cocktails, All Bar One offers a solid food menu whether you want to order some plates to share or something larger like one of their burgers.
But it’s safe to say if you’re a chocolate lover All Bar One is worth a festive this festive season.
