DRINK DEMO
Depending on what you want, there’s a massive difference between the mid week sessions that are calmer and the weekend over packed deafening hip hop dance music madness for the younger crowd.
RUSTIQUE Within the lively bar and club district of Armenia Street. Rustique is smallish, gets packed quickly, so get there early and bag
one of the nice stools out front whilst sipping on the mixologist’s latest creation.
Y COCKTAIL
If you’re thinking suave, sophisticated and want to people watch, then this is your spot. Although it goes in complete reverse on a Thursday with the ever popular karaoke night…
