The Vaults is a very unique experience unlike any other in Wiltshire. Set in the heart of Devizes this grade 2 listed building is full of character, ambience and atmosphere. This is the place to try if you like to experience new flavours and have your boundaries well and truly pushed by our helpful and knowledgeable staff. A bank of 5 cask ale handpumps greets you when you enter and with no fixed range, each time you visit you'll find something new. In addition to a large range of beers in bottle and can we have still and sparkling ciders, wine, spirits and soft drinks. And a monthly food menu offering quality local produce from Bushton Co. which ranges from bar snacks to full plates of lip smacking food!

A really fantastic show, enjoyed by the whole family (kids and grandparents). The show takes place in a smallish room above a pub, the atmosphere was great - brilliant magic accompanied by humour and lots of audience participation

6. The Firkin Shed
Overall Ratings
5.0 based on 88 reviews
We are Bournemouth's first ‘Micro pub.' A small family run freehouse providing you quality craft beer straight from the cask. The beers are sourced from independent breweries and our large range of still ciders are free from concentrates. No telly, but occasional live music. Enough rum to sink a ship.

We had heard about the firkin shed and thought we would check it out for ourselves, it was a lovely evening, it was raining and cold but once inside we sat next to a heater and soon warmed up, the beers and cider helped as well , fantastic choice of ciders , I had the mead, first the original and then the ginger it was so moorish, great staff really friendly they know their stuff, i would highly recommend stopping for a few, and taxi back like we did.

I would highly recommend this bar if you love quirky and classic cocktails. My experience was brilliant! The bartender asked what type of flavours we enjoyed and used their menu to adapt and make a drink suited perfectly for us! Will definitely be back when we’re next travelling to Newquay.

The 2 most difficult things about Cellar 59 is bending down to get through the entrance and then choosing what to drink. Very glad to return to this great bar and taste it’s delicious beers. Friendly staff and fellow customers. An extensive menu which all staff were happy to guide you through. Child and dog friendly, a great place to visit. A gem!
9. The Hideout
Overall Ratings
5.0 based on 121 reviews
Hidden away in the historical lanes of Tudor Bath is a true gem. Stone walled, wood laden and walls lined with whiskey for every taste. Legend tells us this was originally a hoard for thieves, highwaymen, scoundrels and opportunists alike, a place to laugh and cheer, make new contacts and strike deals. A meeting place for every lawless reprobate for miles around, where stories are told and drinks are shared. For years this whole in the wall was a haven for the outlaws of their day, unruliness was rife and law enforcement were scared to set a foot anywhere near. Steal from the rich and come and spend the bounty here. It was a perfect Hideout. A collection of over 150 Whisk(e)ys from all around the globe. But don't worry we have a craft cocktail list created by the team, draught beers and of course a wide range of spirits. See you soon #HiddenDrams

My husband and I stayed in Bath for a long weekend and found this “hidden gem” (pun intended) for an afternoon tipple! The staff are so welcoming, fun and helpful that we had to return the next two days! Great selection of cocktails, a quirky little bar with a friendly vibe :)

We attended Be at One Bournemouth on 4th December for a birthday party. We had arranged this on short notice and the venue had been really accommodating - even allowing us to attend with a slightly smaller number than the minimum required for a class, which we were extremely grateful for. We had a great time making cocktails and this was largely due to our amazing host Jack. Jack was incredibly friendly and funny. He matched our level of enthusiasm, which only enhanced the brilliant time we were already having. Jack was a fabulous but equally fun teacher. He spent a lot of time and was very patient with us, and most of all felt like part of our group - which made the evening feel super comfortable and at ease. Fantastic evening out. Lovely team. Would highly recommend to all.
