Discover Tipsy Jar

Nestled on Redwell Street in the heart of Norwich, Tipsy Jar stands out as a innovative cocktail bar that transforms drinking into an interactive experience. Opened with a focus on creativity, the venue invites patrons to craft their own cocktails using pre-mixed jars designed by an in-house mixologist. These jars combine high-quality spirits with homemade syrups, infusions, and local ingredients, delivering unique twists on classics and bold new creations.

The Signature Experience

The hallmark of Tipsy Jar is its DIY cocktail shaking. Each jar serves two generous cocktails, making it an affordable and shareable option starting at just £12—effectively happy hour pricing every night. Guests receive the jar complete with ice and garnishes, ready to mix at the table. The ever-changing seasonal menu keeps things fresh, while permanent favorites ensure reliability. Beyond cocktails, the bar offers four beer taps including Guinness and Birra Moretti, a curated wine list, and a selection of spirits for traditional orders.

Atmosphere and Ambiance

Expect a candle-lit, lively vibe that's energetic yet intimate enough for conversation. Tables are booked for limited time slots, typically a couple of hours, which keeps the pace fun and turnover smooth even on busy nights like Saturdays. The decor enhances the playful mood, with a focus on enjoyment and discovery. Staff are friendly and knowledgeable, guiding first-timers through the process while handling a bustling crowd with efficiency.
