A Cocktail Menu Documenting the History of Strand Palace's Location
Our menu is the result of extensive research into the archives of Strand Palace, dating back to 1676. It is divided into three chapters that trace the evolution of the hotel's location—from the site of Exeter Exchange and Exeter Hall, to its transformation in 1909 into a renowned accommodation provider, and its growth into one of London's leading independent hotels in 2025.
Landmarks of Commerce and Change
Documenting iconic landmarks surrounding 372 The Strand, the new Gin Palace menu will transport you to the 1600s where a menagerie zoo showcased a traveling circus' animals on the top floor of a shopping arcade. After being knocked down, Exeter Exchange became Exeter Hall, a place of congrugation, communication, education and change.From escaped baboons to crazed killers, sip your way through fascinating chapters of our history from the 17th-century to modern day.
