Lucky Liquor Co

New Town


This tiny, black-and-white bar is all about the number 13: 13 bottles of base spirit are used to create a daily menu of 13 cocktails. The result is a playful list with some unusual flavours, such as tonka-bean liqueur, pea purée and lavender absinthe (though not all in the same glass!), served by a fun and friendly crew.
