SCHOFIELD'S BAR

Very Expensive Ice Waited outside for a few minutes waiting for a table to become free (as you couldnt book online in advance) then we were shown to a nice table with some banquette seating. We were given glasses of water and after a while our cocktail order was taken ( for 4 people). Some time later the cocktails arrived. So its just under 12 per cocktail and we had 2 - a negroni and a Bloody Mary. Both had huge blocks of ice in the centre of the glass. With the negroni this meant you got three slurps and then you were left with a huge block of ice. So 3 a slurp, with the Bloody Mary it lasted a bit longer but every time I took a swig the column of ice smashed against my teeth. Personally I liked the 1969-71 hits played over the sound system but the volume was quite high and made conversation difficult. The other 2 drinks were a g&t and a glass of red, so with the 5+ service charge it was just under 50 for 4 drinks, one of which ran out after 5 minutes. Not really value for the money paid and probably not something we will repeat.

By far the best Old Fashioned cocktail around. Relaxed vibe with excellent drinks and attentive staff. Highly recommended for a relaxed cocktail with friends. The olives are good too!

Excellent service from start to finish. Superb atmosphere and the staff were all so friendly and welcoming, its felt like a family. Excellent little touches for example they put your drink in the freezer when you nip out for a smoke then return it to you as soon as you come back in! Will definitely be back.
