A bar on London's south bank has been named the best in the world.
The World's 50 Best Bars, now in its 10th year, is based on the opinions of more than 500 drinks experts who cast seven votes each.
For 2018, the experts named Dandelyan, the bar of the Mondrian Hotel in London, as the best bar in the world.
The bar was created by award-winning bartender Ryan Chetiyawardana, or "Mr. Lyan," the creator of the "Lyan" family of bars that includes Superlyan, Cub, and the now-closed White Lyan.
Dandelyan, his oldest bar, is inspired by "the great botanists, fruit hunters, and bon vivants who brought back new tastes from foreign lands."
Located in Sea Containers house right on the River Thames, it offers some pretty stunning views - and its interiors are just as impressive.
However, there was one main thing that surprised me about the best bar in the world when I went to visit.
