A group of teens that were drinking for “six hours” in an East London cocktail bar were “sexually harassed” by older men, with one girl later collapsing at a separate venue after drinks were “spiked”.

Police have submitted a licence review for the Cocktail Club (formerly London Cocktail Club) in Cabot Square, Canary Wharf as they believe staff “spotted clearly underage girls who were drunk and vulnerable” and did not offer them support at the time of the incident in December 2022.

According to PC Michael Rice of Central East Police Licensing, police were called to a separate bar in Shoreditch after reports of a group of young girls who had their drink spiked and collapsed.

Police later found out the group had been drinking at the Cocktail Club for around six hours and were so drunk and intoxicated, one girl had thrown up inside the bar.

CCTV footage reviewed by police shows the group of teenagers being served cocktails and shots by staff behind the bar “without challenge”.
