The Blue Lagoon

Gloucester Road stalwart dishing out proper cocktails and a no-nonsense atmosphere that's refreshingly free of Instagram theatre.

You'll find yourself on the grungy, brilliant stretch of Gloucester Road where The Blue Lagoon sits unapologetically doing its own thing. This is the kind of place where the bartenders actually know what they're doing—no fussing about with dry ice or novelty glassware, just competent hands and well-stocked shelves. Walk in expecting good cocktails, cold beer, and a crowd of locals who genuinely seem to like being there together rather than performing for an audience.

Known for

  • Well-executed cocktails without the theatre
