Whisky is the drink of choice at The Woods, a near-legendary after-hours drinking den just off Park Street. When other bars start battening down the hatches for the night, Woods is just coming alive – unlike the butterflies, moths and assorted animal skulls that make up most of the decoration on the walls.
The bar is split into three distinct areas – you can either prop up the bar downstairs, sit back in the Chesterfield sofas upstairs or head outside to a small courtyard area. There are some 50 Scotch malts to choose from, alongside selections from America, Ireland and Japan. Elsewhere, there's a whisky-heavy cocktail list, or an impressive selection of beers, including bottles of Innis & Gunn's rum cask brew.
