The Common Room is a swanky wine/cocktail bar with an arty twist. The décor is a mix between old and new, some of which is pretty eccentric, so if it's your first visit it's bound to get you talking. Drinks wise, the prices are pretty high - about £6 for a cocktail and £5 for a glass of wine. Still, if you're feeling flush, then this place has a wicked atmosphere and is definitely one of the trendiest places in the city. If you're heading to the Common Room later on, (it's open til 2am) then they sometimes operate a bit of a strange entrance policy, where you're only allowed in if you sign your name at the door. read more
