   Decent selection of wines and beers and occasionally they have live music, which is great. On the less positive note, they charge a fixed £10 corkage on all wines consumed on the premises. So if you buy a wine that costs £10, you end up paying double the price just to have it there. They don't have ice to keep the wine cool (they give you a metal "cooler" but no ice inside, so it's pointless) and there is no table service, so not sure why the corkage is so expensive. Also, the fridge where they keep the wines is always half empty and you almost never find the same bottles there, so if you like a particular wine, you might not find it cold the next time you go there, which is a bit of a let down. It would be better if they stocked more wines in the fridge for their returning clients, and if the staff was a bit more engaging as well. Consider buying a small ice machine or buy some wine cooler sleeves to store in the freezer at least. A place with loads of potential, but that desperately needs a few changes in the way is managed.

   Stumbled across this lovely little wine bar by accident. The staff (Gabe and Luca) were so knowledgeable and the choice exceptional. A hidden gem.

   Great selection of interesting wines, craft beers and spirits. If you’re unsure of anything, just ask. The staff are great at helping out with recommendations. They also serve a selection of wines by the glass.

   Fantastic selection of IPA and Whisky, I recently called for advice and was given brilliant advice and supplied with a delicious 25yr old speyside single malt

   Great selection & staff entirely let down by a frustratingly whimsical day on - day off approach to whether you're welcome to drink in or not

   Great place with a fine selection of beer and wine. Staff are super friendly and very helpful. If you are like us visiting the area and like a drink make this a place to visit to pick up something special. Many thanks to Saturday staff with the suggestions, nailed it!
