A Tooting bar is excited to welcome customers back to their courtyard and outside tables next week (April 12).

Goldfinch, a cocktail bar situated at 145 Mitcham Rd, has been operating as a 'bottle shop' while being closed throughout lockdown.

Residents have been able to order their favourite Goldfinch cocktails directly to their door.

Co-owner Paul told Nub News: "After a turbulent 12 months, we would like to thank our lovely customers who supported the bottle shop and delivery service.

"This provided us with an invaluable source of income when we would otherwise be closed."

The popular bar is open for bookings now, you can check out their availability here.

"We are looking forward to welcoming Tooting back," Paul added.

The bar plans to launch a brand new cocktail menu in May when lockdown restrictions ease further.
