If you are aiming for a 1940s vibe then garbage dance music at ear splitting levels hindered conversation and greatly diminished the enjoyment. The cocktail menu is excellent and the old glassware is in keeping with the decor. The menu is varied and the choices we had were well presented and deliciousGet the music right, both in genre and volume and this becomes a five star bar

Had to have the LEGO man in jelly!<br/ <br/ As mentioned by some other reviewers- it’s pretty easy to miss but worth the effort. Nice cosy bar with friendly staff.

And the 900 spirits behind the 12-metre long bar is definitely reason to celebrate. In addition to the central bar space, this auditorium-sized watering hole also has an elegant restaurant and a front conservatory that’s soaked in city views.<br/ <br/ By the team behind Lobo Plantation, it’s no surprise that The Kittyhawk is a military might, with plenty of winks to World War II (including a large painting of Kittyhawk fighter aircrafts embellishing the walls), a perfectly paired-back Parisian menu and cocktails that are pieces of art.<br/ <br/ What I loved about The Kittyhawk when I first uncovered this place was that the barmen were all suave in black tie above the waist but a couple of glimpses revealed they had on Billabong board shorts below the waist (it was a hot night ok). The 1950s bathrooms are also pretty cute, in a very pink kind of way.
