The drinks are delicious. The staff was friendly but didn't seem particularly motivated. The ambiance is great wild and fits the bar's name.

Great food at a cool quirky place. Ringz, wingz and the fried onions were amazing 9,9/10, the tofish a solid 6,5/10. Will come back to try for fussels, fallops or fallamari.
