Dirty burger institution MEATliquor will take a new direction with the opening next month of a sports bar in Covent Garden under the moniker BLOODsports.
The new venue is expected to offer the standard MEATliquor menu led by the signature ‘Dead Hippie’ burger, against a backdrop of pool tables and big screens showing a mixture of sports and late-night horror films. Set in a spacious basement in Endell Street which formerly accommodated Circus, it will also incorporate a branch of Hideout, a coffee and donuts specialist from Portsmouth with a similarly raucous approach.
MEATliquor started out 16 years ago as a pioneer food wagon based in Peckham before moving into bricks-and-mortar venues. It now has eight branches across London and one each in Brighton and Leeds.
