Hoot The Redeemer

This has to be one of my favourite bars that I’ve ever visited. Such a fun atmosphere with super friendly and attentive staff and delicious cocktails. They’re even dog friendly! I loved the machine where you could play to grab a flavour and the staff would make you a cocktail with the spirit of your choice. It was so much fun and I’ll definitely be returning in the future!

Fun little 'hidden' bar tucked behind an old fortune teller theme park attraction. The drinks are great and there's a fun grabber where you can get random flavours and the bar staff will use those to make a cocktail. The champagne foam cocktail was incredible. This is a great place for couples.

Great cocktail selection. Really friendly & attentive service. Love the tarot theme, could be worked into the atmosphere a bit more. A place I keep coming back to and would recommend! (boozy ice cream also available)

Cool entrance. Magical. Raised expectations. We were slightly underwhelmed by the bar itself. Just a bar, they didn't quite deliver the atmosphere. Excellent service! Nice drinks but nothing special (personal opinion), great selection of options though. Bonus points for the booze ice cream.

I came here twice during my stay, and both times were good. I have to stay the absolute best part of this place is the staff and owner. They are all such legit friendly, kind, and awesome folks, and with excellent taste. Such good vibes here. If nothing else, I would return just to chill at the bar with them. It's the kind of place that goes out of its way to make it an experience. The decor is fun -- and hilarious. (I'm sorry, 50 Shades of Grey wallpapered around the toilets is the best use of that paper I can think of. Brilliant.) The rest is a sort of tarot/shady psychic/occultish vibe with a strong owl flavour. Which I adore. They have some cool machines to play with but unfortunately both were broken when I visited. The menu is very rum heavy, and lots of sweet fruity drinks. Not really my style, but if you're down for some vaguely tiki, easy drinking cocktails, you'll find something. The predominantly rum offering is why I brought my friend back the second night cos her fav spirit is rum. The second time we came the place was absolutely packed full, and the guys were so nice finding us a seat since he recognised us from before. That is awesome service and we super appreciated it. The cocktails I tried were fine. Again, it's not really my tastes so it's hard to judge. I tried two and neither really hit that special mark. However, they obviously put thought into them so I would def recommend the signatures to people who lean sweet and fruity and don't take themselves too seriously. So while I would definitely return for the great experience and vibes from the staff, I don't think I would order from the menu. I'd love to see what they can do off-menu. And next time, I wanna get on that Instax wall too!

Really cool bar! Great decorations and the cocktails are delicious. At first I thought they were a bit expensive but understood why once I’d had one as they’re very tasty and well made. The staff were super friendly and despite being a busy Friday night, drinks came really quickly. My partner felt the beer choice wasn’t great if you don’t like IPA/session beers hence 4 stars :)

Wonderful little cocktail bar hidden away from the hustle and bustle of the city centre. The cocktails were delicious, and the service was very friendly. It's table service, so I recommend you get your order in quickly, otherwise you could wait a while (as happened to me).

Hidden little cocktail bar down stairs and behind a secret door. Very fun and quirky! We did walk in and manage to get a seat near the bar but I would recommend booking in advance as they was very busy. Great choice of cocktails which are very tasty but quite strong. Loved the different decor! Seems to be very popular as there was a queue to get in when we was leaving. Would recommend a visit!
