We were introduced to Nipperkin after visiting Niju upstairs for a lunch offer. We had to run off to a show but so glad we came back for drinks the bar another day.
Nipperkin has a great ethos. The atmosphere is art deco extravagance with a 1920 American bar feel. But the LP player had the best collection of 90’s hip hop and R&B we’ve seen/heard.
The menu has 4 sections split into homemade cocktails based on foraging, preserving, growing in-house and finally drinks that link back to the community in some way. I would suggest for going for the more unusual and unexpected drinks and steer clear of the ones that mimic classic drinks. Don’t get me wrong the classics are good but taste classic while the rest are complex, unusual but balanced and well made. Why come to a place like this to have an old fashioned or pina colada when you can have some of the most interesting and unusual concoctions. Trust me you won’t go wrong.
We can wait to come back for the next iteration on the menu that changes frequently.
