Great little bar and very reasonably priced. It's on a corner and the front and side opens right up so it feels like your sat outside, which is great on a warm day. It reminds me of bars abroad on holiday. Downstairs looks amazing!
We were having a great night, place was busy and went to the bar to get a drink and the girl working said “we’re shut - didn’t you know it’s nearly midnight?” Opening times said until 1:30? Maybe change that if your staff are kicking out a full bar an hour and a half early so people will know not to come and disturb them
Great cocktails, great atmosphere, especially when there's a big sports game and there's a crowd watching. Karaoke and phone charging station a bonus. Nice to sit in when the sun is shining and the big windows are open.
A pleasant environment to relax and watch football. Good cocktails menu and ample beers. Very spacious and great music
Not particularly great cocktails and there's always an edge to the atmosphere there. They could do with being stricter on the clientele and at least have someone checking what's going on downstairs, if you know what i mean.
