Before you go
Cocktails are strong: 4 stops with one drink at each is plenty for an evening. Drink water between bars and eat something; each stop shows an alcohol-free choice where the bar lists one. Drinkaware has more.
Cocktails and prices come from each venue's own menu, read in October 2026; menus change, so ask at the bar. We don't hold opening times: check before you set off. The sun is for a clear day.
