Loose Ends Manager Tommi Levitt on Vegan Cocktails and Nottingham Nightlife
Loose Ends Manager Tommi Levitt on Vegan Cocktails and Nottingham Nightlife
Tommi Levitt, general manager of Loose Ends, a distinctive coffee and cocktail venue in Nottingham, highlights the establishment’s commitment to an entirely vegan menu and creative drink offerings. Located on Friar Lane, the bar balances a relaxed suburban atmosphere with proximity to the town square, attracting both regulars and notable visitors.
Tommi Levitt, general manager of Loose Ends, describes his Nottingham-based venue as a "welcoming, whimsical and adventurous" space that specializes in quirky craft cocktails and unconventional flavors. The establishment distinguishes itself by ensuring that every wine, drink, and food item on its menu is vegan.
Located at 92 Friar Lane, the bar sits approximately three minutes from Nottingham’s town square. Levitt notes that while Maid Marian Way acts as a barrier to the city's main nightlife hub, this location allows Loose Ends to maintain a "relaxed suburban atmosphere right in the city centre." He observes that patrons often hesitate to walk out to the area once they are already in the dense cluster of bars and restaurants nearby.
Among the venue’s offerings, Levitt highlights the "Coffee Cream and Cigarettes" as a standout creation. Developed by one of the owners, Julien, the cocktail blends Tonka liqueur, Lillet Rose, and La Medida mezcal, finished with salted coffee and agave cream. Levitt describes the drink as "smokey, decadent and delightful."
Pricing for top-shelf classic cocktails is set at £12.50, excluding bottles of wine. Despite its slightly removed location, the bar has attracted high-profile visitors, including members of the England cricket team and their coach.
Levitt emphasizes that his role serves as an "excellent creative outlet," allowing him to engage with a loyal collection of regulars. He invites new customers to visit for either familiar comforts or experimental drinks, noting that the venue also features a stunning old Italian coffee machine and serves excellent coffee until midnight.
Loose Ends is located at 92 Friar Ln, Nottingham NG1 6EB.
