Up Top Cocktail Bar

Up Top is now twice the size, twice the fun! Already a favourite with the uni and the “wear-anything-as long-as-it-is-black” brigade this city cousin of the Night Cat has extended into the premises next door all to no avail, the place is still wall-to-wall jam-packed after midnight. Before then it’s still a relaxed cocktail lounge perfect for pre- or after-dinner drinks. At the end of lane and up the stairs-to give you that “little place only a few people know” feeling, Up Top has quickly built a reputation as a reliable drop-in bar when you’re in town. The crowd ranges from the unemployed, to celebrities, to unemployed celebrities. The drinks are affordable, the bar staff gorgeous.
