Descend an unassuming set of stairs into this brick-clad labyrinth. Choose between the subterranean chic and bouncing beats of the main bar or the seclusion of a private booth within vaulted enclaves.

No whole milk for white russian. No sparklers for DECADENT BIRTHDAY drink. Waitpersons kept taking my Laphroaig away. Indecisive trainers rules. But, somehow, genuinely the nicest bar in Birmingham.
