This February, 24 Stories hosts a special residency with Passing Fancies, the award-winning independent cocktail bar from Birmingham, taking place on the ground floor of the venue.

Running from Sat 7 Feb – Sat 28 Feb, from 4pm – 12am, Wed – Sun, the residency will see Passing Fancies bring their signature style and expert team to the ground floor of the popular rooftop restaurant.

Founded in 2022, Passing Fancies quickly built a reputation as one of the UK’s most exciting cocktail bars, celebrated for its sense of community, innovation, and consistently outstanding cocktails.

For their residency at 24 Stories, the team will present a tightly curated cocktail menu featuring their most celebrated serves. Signature cocktails include the Adult Ribena, a blend of blueberry, cognac and kumquat; the bold Metric Margarita, made with faux agave, mezcal and salt, with the option to upgrade to Don Julio 1942, and Short & Stout, a rich combination of Guinness caramel, Scotch and walnut, also available with a Johnnie Walker Blue Label upgrade.

Alongside these house favourites, the residency menu also features a selection of specials, including a classic Mojito, Strawberry Americano, Grapefruit Gimlet, Watermelon 75, and a refined Espresso Martini made with cold brew, vodka and sugar.

Happy Hour will run every Wed – Fri from 5pm – 7pm, with selected cocktails available from £6.50. Guests can also roll a six on the Passing Fancies dice to double up on all signature cocktails.

Richard Chiswell, general manager of 24 Stories, said: “We’re thrilled to welcome the PassingFancies team to 24 Stories. Their creativity and expertise will bring a fresh, exciting dimension to our ground floor bar, and we can’t wait for our guests to experience their exceptional cocktails in this iconic setting.”

Matt Arnold of Passing Fancies added: “Our approach centres on inventive, seasonally driven cocktails that balance technical excellence with approachability. We can’t wait to bring our ethos to 24 Stories ahead of opening our new bricks and mortar site in the Goodsyard later this year.”

To celebrate the collaboration, diners who visit Passing Fancies and present their receipt when dining at 24 Stories will receive 10% off their total bill when ordering from the à la carte menu on the 24th floor.
