Berry Bros. & Rudd has traded from 3 St James’s Street since 1698. Its panelled shop, with sloping floors and a set of giant scales once used to weigh customers, is a step back in time, and the cellars below hold an extraordinary range of wines and spirits. Staff are happy to advise on a bottle to take home. Green Park station is a few minutes’ walk away.
