Apartment Bar

You'll find yourself in a proper bar here—the kind where they actually know what they're doing with spirits and bitters. Apartment Bar occupies a townhouse on Rykneld Square, that quieter corner just a stone's throw from all the Market Place madness, and it's got the kind of intimate, multi-room setup that makes you feel like you've stumbled into someone's actual flat (hence the name). The crowd's mixed: couples tucked into corners, groups of mates proper laughing, solo drinkers catching a football match. Staff aren't pretentious about it—they'll make you a textbook martini or a creative house cocktail depending on your mood, and won't make you feel bad if you just want a pint.
