Revolution Vodka is one of my favourite places to spend the cold winter months, day or night. The huge church building has stunning traditional features including original stained-glass windows, plus a pulpit DJ booth ready to help you dance the night away. What’s more, during the day the bar is a modern yet cosy place to eat and drink to your heart’s content.

While it’s quiet, you can try stacking up some small plates or you can feast on a dish from the main menu. Whether you’re looking for a quick bite to eat for lunch or a hearty feast, Revolution offer sandwiches and wraps right through to superfood salads and steak - they’ve got anything you could possibly want.

My favourite place to sit is in the comfy booths behind the bar which have a fun ‘Press for Vodka’ switch, connecting you straight to the bar staff who can pass drinks through your table’s serving hatch. From fabulously fancy cocktails to Revolution’s iconic own-brand flavours, you’ve got the finest to choose from on a night out at Revs.

If you’re going heavy on your night out, then try a shot stick. You might be thinking that the glory days of being able to hold down straight liquor are behind you, but the fun begins with Revolution’s flavoured shot sticks; you can mix and match from the 30 fruity and sweet flavours that won’t fail to kick your night off the right way.

If you’re planning to go steady, Revolution’s cocktail menu never fails to impress. There’s the classic mojito and a dashing daiquiri if you’re looking for the usual combos, but if you’re daring enough to try something different then you’re in the right spot. They’ve got all of your favourite flavours packed into drinks, including the Bakewell Tart and the devisive love-or-hate Parma Violet. With presentation that would blow even the Gordon Ramsay of the drinks industry away, you’re bound to feel classy sipping on your Revs cocktail. And it’s not just the drinks, because in Revolution Bars you’re expected to dress to impress, giving the venue that sophisticated vibe, too.

Open 'til late every day, Revs is the perfect place for you to dance the night away, especially if you’re celebrating. It might be a little pricey compared to the likes of Fever and Moo Moo’s, but in here you pay for the atmosphere. You can also grab yourself a Revolution Card for £3 which bags 2-4-1 Cocktails and other smashing drink deals, making the place ideal for all.

Opening times:

Monday to Thursday: 12pm - 1am 
Friday and Saturday: 12pm - 3am 
Sunday: 12pm - 12am 

Food: 12pm – 9pm every day
