Bars & Pubs

Slick, sexy and self-consciously cool, Iniquity is either exactly what you're looking for - or just not your cup of Iniquity. It's all blacks and reds inside, with smart leather seating, low-level lighting from candles and chandeliers, and a well-groomed clientele who pack the place out at weekends. The original and creative cocktail list includes a good number of drinks at the lower end of the price scale (£6.50-£9.50). Music is as central to the experience as the drinks; there's a laid-back soundtrack earlier in the week, taking in jazz, easy listening, soul and rare groove, which gives way to more upbeat funk, dance and electronica for the weekend.
