| EBG Rating: | 7.9/10 |
| Choice/ Quality of Drinks | ❤️❤️❤️❤️ Cocktails, mixers and a decent enough range of keg beers should keep most happy. |
| Style/ Décor | ❤️❤️❤️❤️ A standout element, highly personalised artsy interior with artwork against warm wood strip. A one-room setup with high ceiling with dangling decorations. |
| Atmosphere/ Character | ❤️❤️❤️❤️ Off-beat but fairly homely place that can do sleepy loungey atmosphere as well as busy evening buzz. |
| Amenities/ Events | ❤️❤️❤️❤️ Food, snacks, books, board games, occasional events, art for sale |
| Value For Money | ❤️❤️❤️ Fair overall, perhaps a little pricier for food than ideal. |
| Description | This distinctive off-beat bar manages to straddle several different points of interest without feeling like a stretch. The cocktails are well made but don’t think this is a specialist cocktail place. This one room bar is warm, personalised and distinctive with a high ceiling and spread of artwork across the wall (much of which can be purchased). There are books and board games adding to the feel of being a casual , informal hangout spot, but the product is good too, from its tapas small plates to the drinks selection which takes in a few craft keg options too. A relatively rare example of such a place being its own thing rather than displaying a derivative approach. Easily recommendable. |
