What makes Rumours Bar special
Jackie Sansavera decorated the bar with orange tones, an old phone booth and classic films on the screens. The cocktail menu is dedicated to Fleetwood Mac, and the Cider Mule comes recommended. There’s no kitchen; food trucks come regularly instead. On Mondays happy hour lasts all evening.
A good fit if you …
- like a bar with retro decor
- are looking for quiz, bingo or karaoke
Not ideal if you …
- expect a kitchen of its own
