Cocktail Sessions
At Pickering’s, we’ve always had a bit of a thing for cocktails – from timeless classics to curious new creations. So, we thought it was high time we opened our doors and let you in on a few of our favourite secrets.
Join us every weekend for our hands-on cocktail sessions, where you’ll shake, stir and sip your way through a carefully crafted line-up. Each session changes with the seasons, and we throw in a few themed specials throughout the year – think Valentine’s, Mother’s Day, Christmas and more.
Looking for something extra marvellous? We also run The Marvellous Ministry of Mixology – our very own cocktail club. Scroll down to find out more.
