Nice place but a few think they from along way is Essex lol. Staff serve regulars before anyone else and are very slow at making cocktails quite expensive too

Lovely little bar - shame it is not bigger! They serve great cocktails and have good live music on some Sundays.

First time in here. Office summer party with 200 others. Then back to Leigh by coach and stumble in here. Nice atmosphere - you could hear each other ! Good tunes and some friends. What could you want ? Overpriced cocktail ? You got it. Mine was ok. Lasses all enjoyed theirs. Well worth a look

Lovely atmosphere and great drinks. Very reasonably priced though a couple of other, older, reviews appear to suggest otherwise; I did not have this experience. Great service, yum drinks and friendly chat from Tamara makes this bar a must-try for Leigh.
Shame about the plastic cocktail glasses. Very odd.

Not as vibrant and welcoming as it used to be. Night life in the area isn't great, but the lock was the nicest place to go. Now it just looks lost. No cocktail specials on the board, shelves and fridge looking empty. Toilets are dirty. Looks like the love has been lost in this place which is a shame

How disappointing to look forward to visiting here after a long walk, wait outside, see staff moving around inside, but then not see the doors unlock and open at the advertised time! At least have the courtesy to speak to people stood outside, trying the door wanting to come in....if you're not going to open on time!!!! We wanted this to be our regular stop after our walk....we went across to the Waterside Inn instead.

Cocktails are reasonably priced and use premium spirits. Decor is nice. Bar staff were friendly and music was varied. Will be returning!

Spent quite a few nights in here with a large group of friends. Always had a good time. The cocktails are amazing and the bar itself has a lovely atmosphere.

Awful place. Ridiculously priced drinks and the staff rob you with their ‘card payment only’ policy and add a big mark up to the actual bill without telling you. Disgraceful.

Had an amazing time here with the girls. The cocktails are to die for and very reasonably priced. Great comfortable atmosphere with stylish decor. The staff were friendly especially the Manager Danielle. Couldn’t do enough for us. Felt like VIP’s for the night. The live singer was fantastic too.
