Local tips
- Arrive early at busy times — the bar’s small size fills quickly and there’s limited seating upstairs.
- Ask the bar staff for agave recommendations if you like smoky or vegetal flavours; they often suggest neat pours with a palate cleanser.
- Wear comfortable footwear: narrow lanes and a short staircase to the upper level mean the layout is compact.

A pocket of Mexican colour in Hurts Yard
400 Rabbits sits down a narrow lane off Nottingham’s centre, occupying an intimate two‑level space that feels deliberately hand‑made rather than slickly corporate. Low lighting, mismatched furniture and bold decorative touches give the interior a warm, secret‑club ambience; the bar’s compact footprint concentrates the sound and the atmosphere so conversation and music mix into a lively hum.Drinks with a clear personality
The bar’s offering is anchored in agave spirits — tequila and mezcal — presented with attention and a hint of theatre. Cocktails range from classically lean to playful, often arriving with palate cleansers or small garnish rituals; measured pours and confident flavouring mean serves that read strong but balanced. A shorter list of bottled beers and rotating seasonal specials complements the cocktail focus.Layout and social vibe
Downstairs the bar is the heart of the room, with the bartender’s station close enough to feel involved in the action; a small set of stairs leads to a more spacious upstairs with additional seating and casual games that loosen the mood. The place suits small groups, dates and evenings where the point is to linger with a few memorable drinks rather than a long dining service.Design details and little rituals
Decorative elements and props are used as conversation starters—bright colours, curios and a few theatrical touches create photo‑friendly nooks while keeping the mood informal. Service often includes quick, curated recommendations; when ordered neat, some agave spirits are served with a tiny palate cleanser to reset the taste between sips.When it feels alive
Evenings bring the place fully to life: music lifts the room, the bar buzzes and the limited seating encourages sociability. Because the venue is compact, the energy feels immediate and personal rather than cavernous. The bar’s scale means that sound, scent and the visual details are tightly focused — you’ll notice the citrus oils, the clink of glassware and the way cocktails are finished at the pass.Who it suits and practical character notes
400 Rabbits caters to drinkers who appreciate craftsmanship and distinct flavours rather than generic palettes. The interior layout and occasional steps between levels mean the setting is best described as cosy rather than fully accessible; it’s ideal for an evening of cocktails, a lively pre‑club stop or a memorable date night, especially for those who enjoy mezcal and tequila‑forward menus.Iconic landmarks you can’t miss
