Speaking to BirminghamWorld, she said: “We have had an absolutely smashing day today at the cocktail club. It has been a really sunny afternoon with people coming in drinking. We’ve also had some games to play as well, if you want access to the secret menu. Everybody seems to be having a nice time, the atmosphere is wonderful. And there has been maybe only one pigeon incident that we have had in this beautiful forest area!”
JJ Goodman, founder of the Cocktail Club bar group, added: “The Cocktail Club is a really unique space. We absolutely love and have massive passion for our classic cocktails and beautifully made contemporary drinks. But often classic cocktail bars don’t have the best energy. So we’ve got a great balance of swinging lights, dancing on tables, and perfectly made martinis.”
Tanisha, who runs the lifestyle blog iconicstxle, said:“Just upon arrival, I saw the phone box and you know, it looks very iconic, very eccentric. And, you know, it captures people’s attention straightaway. You can see people looking when they’re walking past. They’re like, Oh, what’s going on there? It’s really exciting. And I couldn’t wait. I love cocktails myself. Like I seek out new cocktail places to be honest. So the fact that cocktail club invited me down, I was just thrilled. So yeah - and the drink is lovely!”
