Fun and frivilous cocktails, exquisite and obscure wines, delicious desserts, exceptional cheese and scrumptious savoury snacks make this a great place to meet before or after a show. The Library also has live music every Tuesday and Friday evening.

🌧️ Rain outside.
🎹 Live music inside.

Some weekends are made for staying in. Others are made for escaping.

Sink into a corner, order your favourite cocktail, and let the soundtrack do the rest.

This weekend, make your escape.
