If you’re a fan of Southern cuisine and bourbon, an American barrel-aged whiskey distilled mainly from corn, The Beast is a good bet. Offering over 60 bourbons at any one time, the Kitchen and Bar has a strong selection of drinks that also includes bourbon-based cocktails such as Sweet Carolina, made with Evan Williams bourbon, rhubarb bitters, gomme, watermelon and strawberries.

Enjoy them with Southern favourites such as freshly baked cornbread, served with housemade cranberry sauce and whipped honey butter; Southern fried chicken; and buttermilk fried chicken served on a crispy waffle.

The Beast hosts Open Mic Thursdays and Live Music Fridays, so keep this place in mind when you’re ready to unwind for the weekend.
