Need cooling off?

34 degrees in Lincoln today, so the slush machines are earning their keep. Strawberry Daiquiri, Piña Colada, or a Miami Vice, which is half of each. All three can go boozy for a little extra.

Grab one, find some shade, enjoy the view.

Steep Hill just got a little sweeter.🍬

We’ve launched three new slushy flavours: Strawberry Daiquiri, Piña Colada, and a Miami Vice for anyone who can’t pick just one (it’s half of each). Want a bit of a kick? Every flavour can be made boozy for a small extra.

Perfect for a quick stop on the way up, or the way down.

Ten years ago, we started something that's since gone worldwide.

In 2016, Strait & Narrow became the first venue anywhere to introduce Ask For Angela - a simple phrase that gives anyone a quiet, safe way to ask for help if they feel unsafe or unsure on a night out. A decade on, that same phrase has been used in real moments, on real nights, by real people who needed it.

This week the BBC's The One Show came back to sit down with us and talk through where it started, the difference it's made, and why we've never stopped asking for Angela.

If your venue hasn't introduced it yet, our answer is simple: what are you waiting for? It costs nothing and it could mean everything.

BIG NEWS 🏆

A little side note we’re bursting to share… our Old Fashioned bottled cocktail has just been awarded a 1-star Great Taste Award!

For those who don’t know, Great Taste is basically the Oscars of food and drink, judged blind by hundreds of experts across the industry. So this one means a lot.

Huge thank you to everyone who’s ordered a bottle or told a friend. This is as much yours as it is ours.

Old Fashioned fans, you called it first 🥃

We've turned our hands to something new this summer. Five boozy iced coffees, two matchas, all made with Stokes Heritage Blend and all very much on the menu at The Strait.

Iced Bombón. Café Nutella. Strawberry Chocolate Fountain. Iced Ginger Coffee Tonic. Hot Honey Coffee Tonic. Lavender, Hibiscus & Vanilla Matcha. Custom Build Iced Matcha.

Every coffee comes paired with a spirit.... we're The Strait and Narrow, you really should have seen that coming! The matchas are alcohol free. We're as surprised as you are. 🍵☕

Come in with the kids for a well-earned break, and we'll throw in a free lollipop. We're like dentists, but with
booze!

Available now. You know where to find us. 👇
