Viajante welcomes Rita from Milan, and Passing Fancies from Birmingham, on 3rd October for a takover of their Notting Hill bar.

Over 20 years ago, Rita was born in Milan, in a side street of the Naviglio Grande. In a Milan, where the concept of the aperitif was starting to make its way and become popular, Rita immediately stood out as an exceptional meeting place, a classic American bar where great attention to quality and customer service have always been its main focus. Even though it wasn't a common practice two decades ago, Rita immediately chose fresh, seasonal products, and, where possible, homemade.

The team behind Passing Fancies has decades of collective experience at the top of their game in the bar industry. Helmed by Tommy Matthews (of Couch and The Edgbaston fame), alongside Matt Arnold and Eve Green, this is one of the UK's most loved bars, situated in Birmingham's The Custard Factory, They were recently awarded 1 PIN by The Pinnacle Guide, with Anonymous Reviewers highlighting their absolutely fantastic hospitality. 

The event will showcase bespoke cocktails as well as huge selection of classic cocktails, brought to life by Tequila Patrón.
