The Riding Room, also referred to as the Joint on the Corner, our vibrant and unusual cocktail + cabaret bar, hosts seven nights of on-stage activity every week (a mix of live sets, burlesque, side-show and magic); a tip of the hat to old-fashioned socialising mixed with riotous entertainment of all shapes and sizes.

If that's not quite your thing... you can always relax in our dark little corners where you lose track of time. Think of our draped and gated booths as a private carriage train to cabaret town!

Our stable-boys delight in serving unusual but indulgent cocktails in just about any vessel we can put our hand to, from tin cans to jam jars, soda bottles to silver kettles, with perhaps a feather or two as garnish!

And for the brave, you can unlock our "hard liquor cabinet" and get a little absinthe-minded! Just handle with care...

Press for service and bottoms up!
