Baa Bar Sackville Street

Part of the Baa Bar chain of bars, located in the heart of the Gay Village. With their party hard mentality, it's the kind of place you can swap a quid for a shooter. This bar is open ‘til late seven nights a week, serving weird and wonderful science inspired cocktails — prepared by mixologists in white coats, served in conical flasks and measuring cylinders and complete with ‘catalyst’ toppings, obviously. The free entry bar is full of glitz and glamour, complete with a glittering light wall and a rainbow painted bar front, and it also has a couple of regular weekly nights, including Recharge and ExperiMental. If it’s a midweek night out you’re after, Baa Bar offers two for one science cocktails every Wednesday. You can also buy a drinks package for a large group night out, which gets you bottles of champagne, vodka and unlimited mixers. [Charlotte Davies]
