About this space

Whiskey Bar, a Cocktail Bar in Celeste, is an intimate, low-lit room focused on a curated whiskey and cocktail selection.

Design: The space combines dark wood panelling, low ceilings and brass wall lights for a compact, speakeasy-style feel. Leather bar stools, narrow circulation and a mix of hardwood and patterned tile flooring create a close, seated layout.

Features: A PA system and speakers are installed and the room allows its own music or an external DJ. Wi‑Fi and air conditioning are available. The space is wheelchair accessible, includes accessible toilets and a step‑free guest entrance. In-house drinks cover cocktails, beer, wine and spirits, and light food can be served at the bar.

Ideal for: Small groups and intimate social gatherings that favour seated bar service and a relaxed, drink-focused evening.

What guests say: The space is cosy and comfortable for dinner and drinks. The space is supported by attentive, helpful staff and reliable lost-and-found procedures.
