Where Craftsmanship Meets Class
The drink menu at Henrys Bar is a thoughtful blend of timeless classics and house originals, each crafted with precision and flair. Bartenders are more than mixers - they’re attentive hosts who bring a deep understanding of flavours, ingredients, and presentation to every drink served.
