Gin & Reel is a hidden speakeasy within The Stir coffee shop on High Street, offering an intimate, flapper-like ambiance. The bartender, Conor, is renowned for creating exceptional drinks, including the best espresso martini and unique cocktails that are carefully crafted. Customers have praised the drinks, like the Phantom of the Opera and the bartender's choice, which allowed for personalized flavors, even enticing those who don’t usually go for fruity drinks. The space is described as cozy and enjoyable, with a wonderful staff and an excellent drink selection, making it a great date spot.
To enter the small, half-bar interior, customers need to find a password from their Instagram, adding to the exclusive experience. However, some have mentioned that the password system can be confusing, as there are no clear directions for entry. The bathroom situation has also received some criticism, with one being out of order and the other needing maintenance.
Overall, Gin & Reel provides a unique and memorable experience for those who discover it, especially for those looking to enjoy a night out in a hidden gem. It serves caffeine by day and transforms into a lively spot by night, encouraging guests to dress up and enjoy an evening of cocktails in a cozy setting.
