BEHIND THE BAR UPDATES
Both the Pub and Caves will be transitioning to using hay straws for cocktails specifically! These don’t break down as quickly as the paper straws, so guests can enjoy their beverages for longer.
These will be available mostly upon request, however on some specialty cocktails we may pre-straw. Just keep a lookout!
