What’s on your bar?

The Garden Bar owner gives his must-have soft drinks and cocktail secret
“We recently redesigned the old mill building to recreate the outdoors inside with a welcoming and friendly atmosphere, with a nod to Spanish al fresco. We’ve got a traditional main bar that also does cocktails and a separate one where we show sports, so it’s versatile and brings the younger and older crowd together.”
- Tom Davidson, Owneer of The Garden bar, Baildon

Speciality drink?
Our signature cocktail is called English Garden and features mint, St Germain Elderflower Liqueur, lemon juice and apple juice. Refreshing and warming at the same time.

The must-have soft drinks?
Pineapple and cranberry juices. We use them in many cocktails and they also work really well with many spirits.

Beer necessities?
Bottled Corona, Desperados, Peroni and Budweiser fly off the shelves, so we’re always ordering more than we need.

Upsell mantra?
The 2-for-£14 offer on cocktails is a great selling point for the team. But we have a cocktail genius behind the bar, so we don’t have to push it too hard.

Cocktail secret?
We couldn’t do without Passoã, a passion-fruit liqueur from Brazil. We use a lot in our best-selling cocktails such as Pornstar Martini.
