Menu & drinks

Everything behind the bar

Signature cocktails shaken to order, a shot list built for rounds, cold taps, glass pours, a full zero-alcohol section and a kitchen that keeps going past midnight.

Tonight’s specials

Menu items and availability may vary. Ask the bar team for tonight’s specials — there is usually something off-list worth having.

Behind the bar

Drinks made properly, fast

Our bartenders can build anything on this list in the middle of a packed Saturday, and they know the classics cold. Order off the menu, or tell them what you usually drink and let them make the call.

Spirits are measured, citrus is fresh, ice is the right shape for the glass, and garnishes are cut that evening rather than that week. The cocktail list changes a few times a year and we rework it completely for themed nights. Everything can be made long, short, or with more chilli in it if that is your thing.

Booth and VIP bookings get table service through their host. The casino floor has its own service bar, so the full list reaches the machine lounge, the dealer tables and the poker room without anyone walking back across the venue. Everywhere else, order at the main bar — we double-staff it on weekends to keep the queue moving.

Several snacks are vegetarian and we can adjust others. Let the team know about allergies when you order and they will talk you through the options. Platters can be pre-ordered for groups so they land on the table as your guests arrive.

Rounds

Shots, flights and group orders

A shot flight is four of whatever the bartender rates that night, lined up on a board and handed over together — the easiest way to get a group of six moving in the same direction.

For bigger groups we can set up rounds in advance. Tell us your numbers and your arrival time and the shots will be poured and waiting, either at the bar or brought to your booth. VIP tables can add a shot round on arrival as part of the package, and your host will handle every round after that.

If someone in the group is not drinking, the zero-alcohol list gets the same glassware and the same garnish — nobody ends up holding a lemonade in a plastic cup.
