Rules & Life Advice

  1. 01

    All mixed drinks €16, most classics available on request.
    Be nice to your parents, they have more dirt on you than you know.

  2. 02

    We like our drinks liquor forward, not for the faint of heart. Designated drivers look for the (*).

  3. 03

    Remember compliments you receive, throw away your old underwear.

  4. 04

    No seat, no service - Cash Is King.

  5. 05

    If your social circle should unexpectedly increase let us know and we will do our best to accommodate you, this is not always possible.

  6. 06

    Discretionary 12.5% service on all tables of 5+.

  7. 07

    I’ll say it now, we do not have and will not be getting any passionfruit.

  8. 08

    Ignition of absinthe or anything else will be treated with immediate and extreme prejudice.

  9. 09

    One table, one bill-multiple payments occur tableside.

  10. 10

    Drink whiskey, it has more vitamins than vodka.

  11. 11

    No shouting, clicking of fingers, flash photography, filming, drones, plant-based meat alternatives, lepers or time traveling laser monkeys.

  12. 12

    Any questions about our music, menu, the monetary value of our bathroom floor, the state of the universe etc, please ask us, don’t google.

  13. 13

    Agave spirits are an epicurial delight. Forget your youthful indiscretions and have a nice glass tequila tonight, allow it to change your life.

  14. 14

    I cannot, really & truly, I cannot stress this enough, for fuck sake-smile! It is going to happen.

  15. 15

    Welcome punch contains Buskers Irish whiskey & milk. Can you guess what else?

Absinthe

We Love Absinthe.

There’s nothing quite like it, pungent, bold, strong, seductive, subtle & fascinating. We have curated various bottles of absinthe and related liquors over time and continue to add to them whenever possible, bringing diversity and gastronomical delight to a category of booze most people associate with a terrible stag do in Prague, or conversely with a romantic bygone era of artists, muses, rogues and gangsters.

Light & Dark

The Little Pig

Our menu of drinks is broken into 2 categories.

Light and Dark

This reflects the style of spirit in the beverage rather than a reference to sources of illumination or sense of humor.

Light steers you towards gin’s, light rums, blanco tequilas and mezcals, poitin and vodka.

Dark moves into barrel aged territory featuring whiskies, brandies, aged rums, tequilas etc.

Drinks with ‘*’ can be reimagined alcohol free.
