Billed as a ‘destination bar with an amazing drinks collection’, 56 North has a big thing about gin – they hold regular (bookable) masterclasses and stock well over 100 different brands from across
the globe. Knowledgeable bartenders will guide you through the selection of rare botanicals and flavours, as well as advising on other premium spirits and cocktails. The food is tailored to the
drinks and general socialising – so expect deli boards, nachos and filled flatbreads, plus a range of burgers with international toppings and a handful of mains (beer- battered fish with skin-on
fries or chicken breast stuffed with spinach and ricotta). Breakfast and brunch are popular calls, cakes and ice-cream sundaes suit those of a sweet disposition, and there are plenty of ‘proper
teas’ too.
