As Notion, this was a tiny 'dive' bar set in former restaurant premises. The entrance stairs down to the premises provide you with an immediate foretaste of what is to come. Decorated overwhelmingly with graffiti it exudes a hard, urban edge. The bar room is similarly littered with graffiti on walls and ceiling. Although it is rusticly, and somewhat spartanly furnished, the bar offerings of cocktails, spirits, and keg draught beers is presented in a very warm and friendly manner. Although set in a basement, there are some windows to the outside world. Very late opening on weekends.
