Always the weekend at THE PUB

- Jody-Anne Lawrence Staff Reporter

SOMETIMES WE want to get away to a place with good food and great cocktails. Whether it be alone, with that special someone, or an evening with friends, then The Pub’s the place for you. Contrary to its name, The Pub is a cosy hideaway restaurant and bar on West King’s House Road. The music is always loud enough to keep you tapping your feet, but soft enough to allow patrons to have a conversati­on. Manager Howard McIntosh tells Food that his customers have become like family. Everyone knows each other — because once you visit, it’s hard not to return to a place with such an alluring ambience.

The location is diverse catering to everyone; it has an inside bar for dining or enjoying a drink, or if you want to embrace the cool air – the patio area outside works just as well. If you want a romantic evening by the pool, then that is also available. So instead of having the best of both worlds you have the best of three at this cosy haven. GREAT COCKTAILS

And then there are the cocktails. Nothing says TGIF, happy weekend or ‘let’s chill’ like a great cocktail. The Pub boasts a well-stacked bar with wines, spirits and an abundance of libation to cater to your every need. They have everyone’s favourite – the strawberry daiquiri – not a virgin, of course, as their mix includes the smooth J. Wray & Nephew’s white overproof rum. Their Apple martini is made perfect with J. Wray & Nephew Apple Vodka that gives the drink its name.

If you are ever undecided about what you really want, maybe you should just ask for the bartender mix. This mix includes Campari and J. Wray & Nephew overproof rum with a

mixture of other special secret ingredient­s to give you a mix to remember.

Now, if you are hot and sexy, why not try the mix that truly reflects you? The Pub has created the Hot and Sexy – a cocktail that includes Appleton Special. Do not sell yourself short, this sultry drink is for everyone.

While you enjoy your drink, why not make it a full dining experience? The Pub offers a varied menu. A customer favourite is their chicken club sandwich and they also have a strong affection for the chicken wrap. However, if you are looking for something more creamy, then do not hesitate to order their chicken pasta to hit that delectable spot.

To fulfil all your dining desires, you can take it to the Pub where it is always the weekend with good vibes, good people, great food and even better beverages.
