Heads & Tails

Heads and Tails is an award-winning cocktail bar launched in West Hampstead by Will Partridge and Chris Dennis, distinguished by its innovative dual-concept design. The venue features two contrasting spaces: Heads on the ground floor is bright, airy, and lined with glass windows and a marble-topped bar, serving light and refreshing vodka and gin-based cocktails and contemporary libations, while Tails in the basement is dark and atmospheric, offering short, bold spirit-forward offerings built primarily on bourbon, rum, and Scotch. Two gardens—one lush upstairs and one secret garden downstairs—enhance the experience across both levels. Located at 175 West End Lane directly beside West Hampstead tube station with proximity to mainline stations, the bar creates a sophisticated yet welcoming environment where bartenders craft premium cocktails across contrasting flavour profiles and design aesthetics within one walkable destination.
