Really lovely spot! They were kind enough to let us sit outside (which is beautiful, clean, and peaceful) when other bars wouldn’t because we had takeaway foods. The bartender suggested a great beer and made the whole experience super comfortable. Big thanks to him for the hospitality; and shoutout to Rocky the cat for keeping my girlfriend entertained. Perfect vibe all around!

A little bar by the canal. Not particularly luxurious or quirky. Just standard. Uncomfortable chairs because they are metal and cut you off mid back.

Clean and so much fun. Bartenders were entertaining…will definitely return. Just a block from the red light district so not crazy at all…worth the extra 100 steps
