‘Golden age glamour’ cocktail bar coming soon
Oysters, cocktails and “golden age glamour” will be on offer in Bristol’s latest cocktail bar.
Called Rick’s, a nod to the bar from cinema classic Casablanca, the venue promises to become the go-to waterside spot for after-work drinks and cosy evenings next to the fire indoors.
Highlights of Rick’s signature cocktails include Some Enchanted Evening, featuring Chivas Regal 12-year-old whisky, apricot liqueur, lemon, star anise and Sichuan pepper – a spicy and fresh twist on a classic Whiskey Sour.
