A cool spot with creative delicious drinks, good atmosphere and a friendly team behind the bar. Decent selection of beers as wells as cocktails!
Such a lovely atmosphere. It’s so nice to have a little local bar to go to where you can actually hear the person you’re talking to. The staff are also super accommodating, had a lovely chat with them, made me feel really comfortable. Highly recommend before or after dinner :)
Lovely, cozy pub, with a great atmosphere and some great tunes. Bar staff is super helpful with getting you the perfect drink! Looking forward to their Christmas drinks menu.
Really lovely spot on Eccy road! Super cosy vibes. Charlie gave us some great cocktail recommendations and even offered to tailor the drinks to what we liked. Had the monthly special ‘the flaming angel’ and it was delicious! Will definitely be back here soon!
