Errant Group, the team behind Stray, has opened Bar Dos on Great Ancoats Street, The Spirits Business reports. The group calls it 'the tearaway younger sibling of Stray'.

What's on - 70 covers, with cocktails, wine and beer. - A two-part cocktail menu: 'Uno' for twists on the classics, 'Dos' for originals. - Garnishes and techniques chosen to cut waste, and tough glassware rather than delicate stems.

The music: regular DJs plus artist-curated playlists, starting with Private Joy, Space Afrika, Chunky and Konny Kon of Children of Zeus.

The room: furniture from local makers, art by Marcus Hojgaard and Nick Dahlen, and lighting from LS Gomma and Six Dots.

Go if: you liked Stray and want something more laid-back, with DJs.
