There was also a ready supply of freshly shucked oysters served at the oyster bar.

Drinks included a Speyside Sour that consisted of Glenfiddich 12 year and ginger liqueur lengthened with lemon juice, honey water and finished with orange bitters, The Slow Cuban, a twist on the mojito that included Plymouth sloe gin shaken with pressed mint and lime and charged with soda and the Lemon and Basil Gimlet consisting of Citron vodka and limoncello shaken with fresh basil, lemon and lime.
