Pick 1- Um Plateau

Tucked away in a quite corner of Clausen, this elegant gem feels intimate despite its popularity. Incredible views in the garden are complemented by chic chairs with a signature Um Plateau cocktail in hand. They claim that the Botanist G&T is their best drink so we say let the experts decide!

This place is where the cool kids go. Their drink list isn’t extensive, but it’s good and is cheaper and more laid back than any city center bar.

This place feels like you could be in NYC or Paris in a hip hood…
