05/2009 TibbattsKirkAbel project at number 5 in The Independent's, 'The 50 Best Bars' list.

The Vaults, Birmingham, is listed at number five in The Independent's list of The 50 Best Bars (2 May 2009). Working closely with our client and local restaurateur, Julian Brown, TibbattsKirkAble conceived a scheme for the Victorian basement that defies it's recent fit out and instead appears to have been a well kept secret for a number of years.

Toby Green writes, quoting Ben McCormack, editor of www.squaremeal.co.uk; ' A relaxed and friendly vibe marks out this bar from it's more cutting edge rivals. A clever layout divides the large space into a series of of intimate small areas, so even when the bar is packed, you can feel like you're having your own private party'.
