Gnostic Bar & Kitchen

You'll find Gnostic tucked into Corporation Square, that stretch of the city centre that's quietly become somewhere worth lingering. It's the kind of place where they've clearly thought about what they're doing—the cocktails aren't mucking about, and the kitchen takes itself seriously without being precious about it. The room itself is polished and modern, all dark wood and decent lighting, the sort of spot that works equally well for a proper night out with mates or when you want somewhere that feels a cut above for a date. The cocktail menu leans into creativity, and they've got the technical nous to back it up.
