Bin 942 / Bin 941
New York style tapas with a sense of humour.
Bin is hardly the most encouraging of monikers for any eatery, but here, after ten years in service and two outlets to their name, something seems to be working. And working it is – very, very well indeed (we love it here). Inspired by New York style tapas bars, the small, higgledy piggeldy spaces regularly pack (and we mean pack, get ready to stand and be crammed) in crowds clamouring for the 5 buck Pinxos - small bites from Spain like Gulf Prawns and Bison Tataki - followed by Tapatisers which'll take you from Thai Beef Satay to Coho Salmon in one sitting. Desserts have been renamed 'Amorous Intentions', which only leaves you with one thought regarding that Flourless Belgium Chocolate Torte... talk about trashy.
Top Tip / UJ Loves: Get in early and take advantage of the 'Horny Stuff' cocktail menu - the 'Binlini' should get you in the mood with bubbles and passionfruit cognac.
