Gintastic Arcade Street Tavern
Our work decided to host our social drinks at the Arcade Street Tavern - a place that I have grown to love over the last six months. Although the pub currently only serves drinks - they have an amazing selection of beers, ales and gins. All my favourite drinks in one place. On a Friday night local food wagons take it in turn to set up shop in the cobbled streets next to the pub. We were lucky enough to have access to Bay Street Pizza and as pictured above - the pizza was delicious.
The pub - which hosts two bars is split into several different areas. This provides a number of rooms for people to sit and relax while enjoying some of the amazing cocktails. I often migrate to the back outside (but under cover area) section of the pub as it has a great atmosphere. As a big gin drinker and friends who love gin we took advantage of the great selection of gins they had to offer.
I am sure you will agree from the pictures above and below the glasses also make the gin experience all the more fun!
The night led us to try Edinburgh Gin Fizz, Strawberry Gin, German Gin and Blackberry Gin. All were far too easy to drink! The evening helped us with some inspiration for our own gin nights. The next one is planned for the 22nd October and I am hoping we can make some Halloween inspired gin cocktails. Watch this space for when we get creative!
