By the numbers

π, −23°, and a guest every month

the Pi runs on three numbers: pi for a name, minus twenty-three degrees for its most famous pour, and one guest bartender behind the counter every month.

3.14 — the name

The name is the constant — Chun's bar has carried the pi sign through concepts and now through a move across District 1.

−23°C — the Ultimate Martini

The Ultimate Martini is served at minus twenty-three degrees Celsius — the coldest number in the room, and the pour the bar is famous for.

12 — guest shifts a year

Every month a guest bartender takes a shift behind the terrazzo — twelve visitors a year, each leaving one drink on the board.

Three frames to open

Two seats at the terrazzo, the counter's signature colour, and the amber hour — how a night at the Pi opens.

Two at the counter

The counter seats are the Pi's front row — two drinks down, the whole room's choreography in view.

The terrazzo pour

Blue terrazzo runs the length of the counter — the surface every Pi pour is photographed on, and the room's signature colour.

The amber hour

As the room warms up the pours turn amber — the Pi's late colour, from first doors at 16:00 to close at 02:00.
