Lyaness

Lyaness, the brainchild of acclaimed bartender Ryan Chetiyawardana, known as Mr Lyan, is a distinguished cocktail bar located within Sea Containers London on the vibrant South Bank. Since its inception in 2019, Lyaness has garnered international acclaim, including being named the first-ever 3 PIN bar by The Pinnacle Guide, recognizing its excellence in the cocktail industry. ​ Ambiance and Design: The bar's interior, designed by Jacu Strauss and the Lore Design team, exudes a blend of comfort and whimsy. An electric blue palette paired with the original green marble bar from its predecessor, Dandelyan, creates a chic and inviting atmosphere. Floor-to-ceiling windows offer panoramic views of the River Thames, enhancing the overall experience. ​ Cocktail Menu: Lyaness is renowned for its inventive approach to mixology, focusing on unique ingredients rather than traditional cocktails. The 3.0 Cookbook, the bar's main cocktail menu, delves into the complex world of flavor, offering guests a chance to engage deeply with their drink choices. Signature cocktails include the 'Doc Americano,' featuring Tanqueray 10, Carrot Vermouth, Campari, and honey soda, and the 'Safety Frappé,' a blend of Hendrick’s Gin, Shiso Absinthe, mint, anise, and Peach Wine. ​ Accolades: Lyaness has consistently been recognized among the world's best bars. It ranked No. 39 in The World's 50 Best Bars in 2019 and was honored as the Highest Climber in 2025 by Top 50 Cocktail Bars.
