About this space

A small cocktail bar housed in an 18th-century townhouse, defined by a back bar holding more than 300 gins.

Design: The interior pairs deep-painted brick walls and patterned tiled floors with compact, low-ceilinged rooms arranged around small round tables and bistro seating. Warm, low lighting keeps sightlines intimate and the overall scale comfortable.

Features: An extensive cocktail menu combines classic serves with theatrical signature drinks. Stone-fired pizza and Italian-style bar snacks are served alongside a concise bar-food list. An outdoor paved frontage supplies sheltered cafe seating, and accessible toilets plus a step-free guest entrance make the venue wheelchair friendly.

Ideal for: Small social groups seeking a relaxed, cocktail-focused venue for standing receptions or informal seated dining.

What guests say: The space delivers attentive service, carefully crafted and theatrically presented cocktails, and a cosy, intimate atmosphere. The outdoor seating is frequently mentioned as a pleasant option during evenings.
