About

The cocktails live up to the hype, and the food section offers everything from burgers to succulent meats. It's lively with great crowds for interaction, but service can be inconsistent and there's minimal parking — Uber there. Go for the drinks and energy, and maybe try the candy shots (espresso, strawberry, peppermint) for something different.

Very lively spot with great crowds for interaction. Their cocktails do live up to the hype. Great food section with a wide variety ranging from burgers to succulent meats. Only let down is the live DJ...

The place was rather underwhelming. We expected better ambience and service. We had the candy shots (expresso, strawberry and peppermint flavours) - it was an interesting first time experience. Also...

One of the best spots in UpperHill. Great service, great food and a generally good ambience. Cocktails are well made and priced
