I can't afford to go here often, but I enjoy it on a Friday after a particularly long/exhausting week, or when I need to have a serious discussion w a good girlfriend. Stiff drinks, tasty bar snacks, atmosphere that feels lively yet somehow hushed at the same time.

I wish it wasn't so small. Peak hours you can't get near the place. Cocktails always perfect, and the food's pretty good. Seems to be a good supply of old guys with what appeared to be youngish working gals, spicing up the room.

This bar fits the St. Reigs perfectly...very small, quiet, dark, and populated with rich people. Drinks are nothing special, just the classics at very high prices. But the ambience is one of a kind, and the mural really does bring back an era.
