Welcome

Inspired by Victorian quack doctor, James Morison, who in 1828 opened the ‘’British college of health’’ just a few doors from here. Doc Morison was quite an adventurer, born 1770 Scotland, he studied in Aberdeen and Germany, and soon established himself as a merchant on the Baltic in Riga and invested in the West Indies before moving to Bordeaux in 1815. A few years later, he came to London claiming to have found a universal vegetable cure for all ailments based on botanical compounds, which he prepared in pill form and swallowed with lemonade.

Today, at Hokus Pokus we prefer our botanicals to be distilled, flamed on fire, smoked, or with complementing molecular mixology treat. While we do not claim health benefits, we are confident that our potions and elixirs might do wonders to your mood, whatever the weather.

An underground alchemy lab anchored by its King’s Cross heritage and location, with an audacious blend of 19th century apothecary and retro-futuristic steampunk engine room, inspired by Victorian science, quack medicine, alchemy books and esoteric literature.
