july saw the launch of our splendid new drinks list.
a heady rumpus of a mix !
we have put together an explosive collection of old and new drinks, some fun some serious
and all dangerously tasty !
and don't forget, our award-winning bar-dudes also take great delight in making classics
to order for any lounger who favours a gin soaked olive. look out
for our cocktail of the week creations too, they're always sure to raise an
eyebrow.
as rock hudson said in 'pillow talk', "i've had hangovers, but this
time even my hair hurts."
