The space features exposed beams, antique brick veneer, and reclaimed wood, creating a rustic yet refined atmosphere. Their menu boasts original cocktails crafted with fresh, seasonal ingredients, such as the La Vie En Rose, a blend of rose, blood orange gin, cava, and egg white lightly sprinkled with rose tea. For a non-alcoholic option, the Royal Heiress mocktail offers a rich, purple, foamy drink made with blueberry syrup, lemon juice, lemongrass bitters, and elderflower liqueur. The bar also serves organic and biodynamic European wines, local craft beers, and a selection of small bites like hummus and Mediterranean snacks. With both indoor and outdoor seating, including cozy firepits for chilly nights, Au Comptoir provides a welcoming spot to unwind.

Nestled within a restored Victorian mansion, The Vic Tavern offers a cozy setting with a wood-burning fireplace and a garden terrace.
