Luckenbooth

Part of the appeal at Luckenbooth is the pleasure of finding your next pour among its whiskies. The selection ranges from Scotch to Japanese bottles, and some visitors say a recommendation introduced them to something they would not normally have picked for themselves. Whisky enthusiasts may find a chance to explore less familiar labels, while those new to whisky can ask for advice based on their tastes and preferred way of drinking it. Visitors have also noted that the bartender explains the character of different bottles, helping them explore their options.

There are cocktails, too. Visitors have recommended the Manhattan, while others report enjoying a whisky sour. You could start with a cocktail or ask about a whisky that catches your eye. The bar has also been described as quiet and relaxed, making it a good setting for an evening focused on conversation and a well-chosen drink.

Luckenbooth is closed on Mondays and open from 19:00 until 4:00 the following day, Tuesday through Sunday. It is a place to stop in Pontocho when you feel like taking your time over one more drink.
