This summer, Pálás Cinema & Bar in The Latin Quarter Galway are shaking things up as they launch a brand-new cocktail menu featuring cult classics, seasonal delights and a selection of spritzes to suit everyone’s taste. Of course, there are many film-related names and puns on the menu too! Check it out here...
The refreshed summer menu, which has been specially crafted by the expert bar team, has an emphasis on local, seasonal products, and house-made syrups. New creations and unique takes on classics will be served up all summer long, so try them while you can. These cocktails pair perfectly with some pre-film grub out on the terrace!
Taking inspiration from some of the most loved cult films, the classic selection has something to quench every cinephile’s thirst, such as an ode to Paul Thomas Anderson’s Boogie Nights with The Dirk Diggler and a mix as complex as Christpher Nolan’s filmography itself, a Galway take on a Dirty Martini - Gincepetion - just in time for Oppenheimer. Other fan favourites include The Tangerines of Inisherin, RedRum and Whiskey Business.
New flavours and faces are now on offer to mark upcoming releases and seasons at Pálás. So whether you’re sitting out waiting for Wes Anderson’s Asteroid City, or getting ready to paint the town pink ahead of Greta Gerwig’s highly anticipated Barbie, you can choose your favourite Movie Margot (Tenebaum or Robbie?) with a Spicy or Sour Cherry Margotrita. Other specialities on offer include a Wes-key Sour, Christine Lady Bird, Cool Rummings and the Blue Berrymore.
Pálás Cinema and Bar are open daily for film, food, drink and craic. Follow their social media channels (Facebook, Instagram, Twitter) for special events, exclusive offers and season announcements, and have a read of the new cocktail menu below...
