No cask. Keg offering of Amstel, Moretti, Neck Oil, Heineken, Tiny Rebel Clwb Tropica, Guinness, Inch's cider and Old Mount berries & cherries cider.
This is a large activity bar. Very modern and very plush. On street level you enter to an area that is effectively the mezzanine of the large mini-golfing space which would really be the basement. The mezzanine has a circular viewing gallery with ledges, tall tables and tall stools providing sight to the activities below. Upstairs has the e-versions of shuffleboard and darts and there are plenty of seating options dotted around the space (and importantly for me on this visit plenty of places to charge your phone). The bar counter on the mezzanine is a counter along the wall opposite the entrance and it is replicated downstairs on a wall at right angles to the one up here and offering all the same options in the basic keg range. Downstairs also has quite a lot of tables set up for the typical dining options you would expect in this sort of venue. The venue is impressive and very atmospheric, and the floor filler music soundtrack played at a high level was fun. Not going to appeal to everyone but I really enjoyed my pint of Guinness here whilst exploring the impressive space.
