The Wine Bar

Head upstairs on London Road and you'll find yourself in a genuinely good wine bar—the kind that feels like it's been there longer than it probably has because the vibe is so settled. You're looking at a place where people know what they're doing with wine but aren't going to make you feel small if you just want something you'll enjoy drinking. The crowd's a genuine mix of after-work types, couples, and groups who've realised there's actually somewhere decent to properly sit and have a glass in this part of town.
