The Drink

The cocktails are the centre piece and are curated as a celebration of Japanese spirits. You’ll notice these as unique ‘Disco Remix’ edits that are their very own take on some of the classic cocktails.

Like originally the ‘Purple Rain’ which is actually a variation of the ‘Long Island Iced Tea’ – notably including Absolut Raspberry and Blue Curaçao.

For those wanting something traditional you can try the range of Sake’s from highballs to palate-cleansing citrus. All served out of ornate china carafes and cup combos. It’s rude to serve yourself from these!

For those wanting something less adventurous you can choose from a range of wine and beers.

The Place

Power, Corruption and Lies operates a table service, with a handful of stools available for a more casual bite.

Plants and record sleeves adorn the walls of the tastefully renovated space. And of course it would be rude not to have a disco ball hanging above the disco alter.

Every Thursday local DJs jump on the 1s and 2s to play you strictly vinyl disco cuts.

In the sunny months you can take advantage of the bench seating directly outside the front of the bar.
