    Big Mojito fans will love the Wits End cocktail! Brugal Extra Dry Rum, Citrónge, Lime, Mint, topped up with a heap of fresh Mango juice. Delicious and boozy.

    Pretty solid happy hour that runs until 8 every night. Try out a snazzy rum drink you wouldn't typically order.

    Rogue dead man Pilsner goes perfectly with the fries and crab Mac & cheese. Also a relaxed, super friendly atmosphere!

    Good scene. Darkly lit and deceptively long and wide. Great music and vibes on a Friday night.

    Instead of genders, the bathrooms here are assigned Shakespeare quotes. I love this place already.

    The painkiller is good but the rest of the cocktails are so-so at best. If you don't reserve ahead, expect room to be limited on weekends.
