Sotto Lounge

You're walking into Sotto at dusk, and there's that immediate hit of something a bit different for Chatham. Floor-to-ceiling windows frame the marina, boats bobbing gently while you settle into leather banquettes. It's all dim lighting and polished edges—the kind of place that feels like it belongs on the South Bank rather than Dockside Centre, but that's precisely why locals keep coming back. The vibe hovers perfectly between date-night formal and after-work relaxed, never trying too hard. Service moves at the right pace, and the cocktail menu reads like someone actually knows what they're doing behind the bar.
