One of the best bars in Leicester very easy going place with easy going people, sad shame not open now.
If the fabulous girl with the tattoos and the big glasses behind the bar entices you with her vast and extensive knowledge of rum and then suggests you try the black tequila, think of Zammo and just say no!
It's not big or clever to drink four or five of them. Yes, ok, so the they are tasty but they were clearly not good for me. Err, I mean, you....
Can't say I tried any of the gins or cocktails but I did drink a lot of nice rum in there.
Would I drink in there again? Yeah, although it's about 45 miles from my house, so not really practical for an evening tipple.
Plus, as much as I thought I was being pretty suave at the time, I probably didn't come off anywhere near as cool....
Turned up after previous good experiences. Now their cocktail menu is much smaller and simpler than before. It's much less than what is on their website. I don't know what happened? Did they lose their main bartenders? I asked the bartender if she had a bigger menu and she said no, but could make the classics. Yeah, so can I...
Cocktails are nice, but the service is offensive. 4 members of staff behind the bar and only 1 willing to serve customers. The other 3 stand there with their arms folded or tasking while you wait for approx 20mins. I find it rude to watch a resentful member of barstaff polish glasses whilst angrily chewing gum while the bar is heaving with customers. Let me be clear: I understand when staff are busy and under pressure that customers have to wait longer (fair enough), but 3 spare members of staff deliberately avoiding customers while one flounders is not OK.
We had booked a Gin tasting experience for our best friend. Josh, the manager was looking after us. A true gentleman. He sat with us, took us on a journey of Gin, we laughed alot. Drank quite a bit and then he made a cocktail with the Gin that he helped to create himself. Awsome Gin and perfect host. Thnaks for a memorable night Josh.
