It is unlikely that another bar has featured iron as prominently, or as well, as Vertigo does.
Iron is used everywhere: small iron tentacles curl around the conical light fittings, polished iron hooks stand waiting for coats. The piece de resistance is a huge iron wine rack above the bar decorated with elaborate swirls. Yet, its use doesn't create a heavy or sombre air.
Bound literature classics track an undulating shelf the length of the right hand wall before stopping above a fireplace.
The second, mezzanine level of this three-storey bar extends out on to a balcony which comes alive during the warmer months. This section has longer tables for larger groups.
The third floor with bright ochre walls and a separate bar is reserved for functions.
The kitchen stops serving meals at midnight but snacks are available until the bar closes.
There are currently no specials on offer.
