On Tuesday, the drinksin team were invited along to the Winter Menu sampling event at Friar Street’s newest bar and eatery Muse. If you have not yet had the pleasure Muse is a brand new treasure to Friar Street, based at the old Bar Four premises.
One thing you notice when you enter Muse is it’s warm, relaxed and welcoming interior. The deep reds and opulent furnishings are sure to help melt away any built up tension from a long day in the office or a busy day’s shopping. What’s really special about Muse is it is a break from the norm from what many would expect from a Friar Street premises – a little sanctuary for those seeking the smooth and sophisticated. 
The new Winter Menu officially launches this week and offers an amuse-bouche of perfectly crafted plates and a cocktail menu with a playful nod to the 70’s as well as reverance for traditional classics.
We were lucky enough to sample a pick and mix of the new menu during the event, and the food is really good.
The chef at Muse has a strict policy on fine and fresh food, which means everything on premises is made from scratch – you can tell.
The food menu like the new cocktail menu shows a playful nod to some of the 70’s classics with dishes like chicken in a basket and bangers and mash. The chef has also clerverly constructed a pick and mix menu, similar to a tapas experience but with influences from all over the globe. Really great if eating light before a big night out or after work drinks with colleagues and friends.
For the conscientous amongst us, Muse have paid attention to health with a great offering of 
healthy options – the super food salads look fantastic, and the menu even comes with calorie count to make life eaiser.
The Express Menu also works really well for lunchtime workers with an eye on the time. Each express dish is marked and is guaranteed service within 20 minutes.
