What people said
Star pins, I had not been there before and it was really nice. Really enjoyed their personal cocktail
Shin Japanese was a hidden gem, nice to find somewhere different to go to, staff were very friendly.
Great experience that makes people go to places they wouldn’t normally go to which ultimately helps businesses within Coventry.
Turtle bay - the cocktail was really nice and vibes and it was fun to hangout and enjoy
Cogs, love the decor and atmosphere
