For the month of January, Oddbird will be taking over the Zetter Townhouse in Marylebone and Clerkenwell with a full non-alcoholic wine and cocktail menu and afternoon tea. Zetter Townhouse’s Afternoon Teas will be paired with Oddbird’s premium sparkling wines, offering guests an opportunity to taste Oddbird alongside delicious sandwiches, cakes and scones.
Afternoon Tea will be available at The Zetter Marylebone Tuesday to Sunday and The Zetter Clerkenwell on Saturdays and Sundays only. All Zetter Hotel guests will also be offered a complimentary glass of Oddbird or an Oddbird cocktail during their stay.
Oddbird produces quality wine in France and Italy using traditional methods from which the alcohol is then liberated. The finest grapes from the best vineyards are selected, at the right level of maturity, and then fermented in the same way as sparkling wine to ensure Oddbird’s unique taste and high quality.
Oddbird Spumante, Blanc de Blancs, Sparkling Rosé and the new Low Intervention Organic Red and White Wines will be available by the glass along with a range of Oddbird cocktails, liberated from alcohol including:
Breakfast at Tiffany’s – £10

Jack Hibberd, Commercial Director of Low and No Alcohol at Proof Drinks says: “We are delighted to be partnering with Zetter Townhouse for the month of January to offer a full non-alcoholic cocktail menu and afternoon tea pairing. Oddbird has performed really well in the off-trade since its UK launch earlier this year and we are excited to introduce more people in the on-trade to Oddbird’s great non-alcoholic still and sparkling wines at Zetter Townhouse in January.”
Bert Blaize, Sommelier says: “Oddbird is the best non-alcoholic wine I’ve ever tasted! It follows my philosophy of minimum intervention wine making in the winery with organic practices in the vineyard. The wines are made by top winemakers like Contrà Soarda and it’s liberated from alcohol by Oddbird. Oddbird is unique in its approach and full of character just like The Zetter Townhouses which are quirky and fun London destinations serving drinks of the highest quality. I’m looking forward to the two coming together in the New Year for the takeover and collaboration.”
The collaboration has been organised within Government COVID-19 guidelines.
About Oddbird
Oddbird is on a mission to transform drinking culture by producing world class beverages liberated from alcohol. Oddbird was founded in 2013 in Gothenburg, Sweden by Moa Gürbüzer. Moa has worked for over two decades as a social worker and family therapist specialising in alcohol related family issues. She wanted the question “Do you want your wine with or without alcohol?” to be as common as “Do you want your coffee with or without milk?”.
The Oddbird range includes Oddbird Spumante, Blanc de Blancs and Sparkling Rosé wines along with the newly launched low-intervention organic red and white wines. Oddbird wines are all vegan friendly and contain 1/10th of the calories found in wine with alcohol.
