Mandy S: Really good Japanese beer and whisky selection. Give the cocktails a miss and try the Koshihikari Echigo. If you want a seat, get in early.
Neffie Von Vlaanderen: Fantastic bar, the grilled stuff is a great match for the Japanese whisky. Very decent range on offer. Good for a casual one on one meet or small groups.
Mel: This place is great. Excellent Japanese bar food, excellent cocktails, great range of whiskeys served by guys who are enthusiastic and passionate about what they're doing. So good.

W C: Cool whisky bar and carvery with a Viking theme. Food was great, particularly the duck. Great service as well.
RolyseeRolydo C: Ale, bone marrow, whiskies and Vikings! This is Valhalla. Impressive collection of whiskies from around the world. Fill up Mjonir (Thor’s hammer) with a drink and share it with your mates. Great fun!
Marianne N: Well that was a memorable meal... beer in horns, bone marrow brûlée, whisky shots out of torched bones... delicious and strange!
H C: Hot whiskey with ginger and cinnamon
Hidetaka Tanaka: Located in the heritage building, this underground bar has divided into rooms with different themes. Whisky is their specialty but Guinness is also great. Sunday live music.
