Gin Palace 

Taking on the upper-class stereotypes that you would associate with gin drinkers, Gin Palace presents itself in a stylish fashion that certainly fits the mood of the bar. The seating is aged and gives the bar character, but the bar offers what is known as a ‘surrealist’ martini in which all the ingredients and utensils are frozen for two days to deliver a crisp drink which lingers on your taste buds ever so delicately.
