★★★★★2 years agoGo early to avoid the queues. The ambiance and staff are very welcoming and is a great bar to checkout to impress dates/friends. The cocktails are said to be inspired by mixing two classic cocktails together and the whole menu did look interesting and unique. They say that they will rotate their menu in the winter time so would be keen to revisit then to see what is new. Cocktails are slightly on the expensive side, especially as you have so many other options in the area also making great cocktails at a cheaper price and with less queueing. Overall still a great place to go visit, favourite drink was the Guadalupe which was fruity yet smoky due to the mezcal 🍹

★★★★★2 months agoReally enjoyed this cocktail bar and they offer a fine selection with a creative menu. The atmosphere is stylish and welcoming and the drink I had (with a refreshing hint of tea) was excellent. The staff were top-notch, they were attentive, detail oriented and genuinely service-minded, which made the experience even better. Highly recommended for anyone into great drinks. Bonus points for their impressive whisky selection, I even had the honor of trying one of their collaborative bottles from Hong Kong!
