Drinks & Nightlife

drinks made with fresh ingredients, the lemonade is great (alcoholic version). The atmosphere is very cool with Edison light bulbs, good music and attentive but non-intrusive staff - I haven't eaten their but I've heard its very good, southern style - downstairs is like a speakeasy (theres often a waiting list)
