You'll find Oil tucked away on Castle Street, in that part of town where the medieval charm gives way to proper drinking establishments. It's the kind of place where the bartenders know their stuff without being insufferable about it, craft cocktails done right rather than Instagram fodder. The atmosphere is unfussy and welcoming—you're as likely to bump into someone after work as you are a group out for a special night. There's a real sense that this bar exists for the people who live here, not just tourists passing through.
