Manage a trois !
I have been to the Conduit several times now and found something new on each visit.
It is owned and ran by a group of partners and indeed my first drink of the evening was served and presented by one of them.
There are plenty of choice for everyone here, the main bar is elegant and practical with a variety of seating options.
The evening bar menu is good value giving you 4 options (e.g; English goat cheese and red pepper wrap, devilled kidneys, glazed pork belly with Thyme and perfumed truffle, Bloody Mary oyster shot) for £10.
The basement area is completely different and very "rock n' roll" as is the exclusive dining room on the top floor which reminded me of a French boudoir (manage a trois ;-).
If you do visit here do make the effort to visit the top floor restaurant, the atmosphere and ambiance that has been created is quite sumptuous and will not remain a 'hidden gem' for long.
