straws

Straws is utterly fantastic, there is not any other words for it. (Well, from a student’s point of view anyway) It has recently opened on Southway, next to the Playhouse and The Dirty Penguin. However, it is tucked away next to Wilkinsons, and if you didn’t previously know about it you wouldn’t know it was there. This was a good thing when it first started out, but now the secret is out! Straws is famous with students for it’s £1 shots. All night, all shots! So this small respectable bar has become the heaving hub of the student pre-​night-​out culture. It is literally tiny, with about a 50 (at a push) capacity, so is not the best place to go if you’re looking for a quiet drink, however if you’re going to get cheaply tipsy in preparation for a heavy night then this is the place to be.
