Simmer Down

Descend into Simmer Down to find something entirely new. Located in what was once known as “The Money Room”, you'll now find classic cocktails with a luxurious edge. The room has been reimagined into a high-style affair by bringing opulence back to the space where furs, silks, gold bars and coins were once stored. The craft cocktail lounge features the original brick ceiling and a room-spanning mural with a vivid narrative conceptualized, illustrated and hand painted by the brilliant Reverend Michael Alan
