A perfect little nook up the more elegantly wasted end of Chapel Street, Borsch, Vodka and Tears plies its contempo-bohemian trade in an atmosphere somewhat more humorous than its name might suggest. Maybe it’s due to the ‘uplifting’ potential of the 90+ imported, house-infused and ‘special release’ vodkas, or their chuckle-worthy shots such as the ‘Polish Bitch’.
With imported beers and spirits, plus a great wine list there are more than 160 tipples to choose from, any of which can suitably accompany the hearty Eastern European fare that make up BVT’s charmingly different menu. From authentic pierogi and uszka (Polish dumplings) to stews and soups (obviously the eponymous beet-y borsch), the meals can be as ‘heavy’ or ‘light’ as you care to make them. Old-school (as in, not too cool for school) hospitality makes this low-lit, cosy, warm and inviting eatery/watering hole as authentic as any bar on a Prague or Krakow backstreet.
