Backstreet bars are a deceptive beast. Outside, the Ratsky threatened to live up to its name. Entering via a litter and furniture-strewn alleyway, first impressions were not great. Inside however, it's a beauty. There's a wellstocked and highly accommodating tincovered bar and the disco balls glitter like almost-real gold. The house band can't touch the best in town, but they do receive major '80s kudos for rediscovering the Fisher Price keyboard guitar. Add a host of band members willing to demonstrate just how athletically supple they are, and you have a very good budget bet.
