Island Bar - Cocktails

Absolutely love this little bar, been so much recently, just can't get enough!!

THE LOOK

Each cocktail here is completely unique! Picture 1: Birthday shots. We went here for my housemates 21st and were given these shots for FREE, no idea what they were but they look incredible. Picture 2: Fab. I have had this cocktail a few times and each time it has looked different: the amount of ice changes, the cream differs and sometimes you get sprinkles sometimes not... Picture 3: Blue Hawaii. I adore the colour of this cocktail, it is the perfect Hawaiian blue and the strawberry really makes it pop. However, some of our friends ordered this cocktail after I did and each time it was served in a different glass. Cocktail 4: Passionfruit Bellini, by this point I couldn't think of another cocktail I wanted to try so asked the barman for something sweet and cheap and here's what he produced! A much classier look compared to the others but still the perfect bellini.

THE TASTE

The shots were surprisingly nice, I though since they were free they'd be so weak but they were lovely and sweet. We drank them through the fire with a straw but you have to be quick so that it doesn't melt! The Fab cocktail does what it say on the tin, it tastes just like the icelolly, there's really nothing else I can say!! I was a bit disappoint in the Blue Hawaii, all I could taste was pineapple and it seemed basically non-alcoholic, not one I would have again. The passionfruit bellini was one of my favourites, the barman asked my favourite flavour and used that syrup for it so it was very personal to my taste! A sweet cocktail but not too sweet. My absolute favourite cocktail here, which unfortunately I didn't manage to take a photo of, is the COCO-POPS cocktails. It is so easy to drink!! I think I had at least 2/3 last time I went! It's literally like drinking the chocolatey milk!

THE PLACE

Island Bar is the perfect little TIKI BAR. The main bar is downstairs and the Tiki Bar is upstairs, which is only open at selected times. The Bar has a different menu during the week, which I personally think is better that the weekend one! In the corner there is a games console so ADULTS CAN BE KIDS AGAIN and play games or simply get up and dance to the music from the in house DJ. It's the perfect place and very versatile; you can either go for a casual drink or get dressed up and party the night away!
