Sass Café feels like a bit of a show-off. Perhaps that’s due to the red carpet that leads you in, the glossy black interiors and red helium balloons lining the ceiling. Or maybe it’s the high drinks prices. Either way, it’s slick and upmarket, and it knows it.
The venue is shiny and sparkly with the vibe of a super-club. If you want a clubby atmosphere without actually having to go to one, Sass is a good in-between.
The bar area is small, with just a few high tables and a DJ booth making up the space. That makes it easy for staff to attend to each guest without any queuing, which is always welcome on a night out.
