The Temperance Society

In a Smith Street terrace house converted into a bar, four taps pour rotating Batch, Ironbridge, and Rocks Brewing Co beers plus Young Henrys cider that you can drink by the pot, pint, or jug. Order a toastie or charcuterie platter to match your brew and play a board game in the velour-lined living room, or settle into the fairy-light-strung courtyard. This spot is truly a home away from home: Take your best mate for a game of Connect Four or chess, or browse back issues of National Geographic from the small library while listening to your own music plugged into the sound system—unless it’s a Thursday and there’s a band playing.
