Goodwins

Goodwins occupies a stretch of Greenville Avenue where the competition is mostly bars, and it runs as an all-day restaurant with lunch and dinner services either side of an afternoon break. Its non-alcoholic drinks are printed under a heading that leaves no ambiguity — NO ABV — on the dinner menu revised in late April 2026.

There are two, and both are built on Ritual Zero Proof, the Chicago distillate range that has become the default working spirit for American bars taking the category seriously. The Mocking Marg keeps it clean: the tequila alternative with lime and agave, which is the drink most people want first when they stop drinking. The Ginger Peach Sour is the more elaborate build, running the gin alternative into peach liqueur syrup, lime, ginger and a rose water finish. Non-alcoholic beer comes from Athletic Brewing and Crazy Mountain's lime lager.

We would rather be straight about the scale: two mixed drinks is a short list, and it sits inside a menu PDF rather than on a drinks page of its own, so it is easy to miss when browsing. What makes it worth the entry is that both are made with real non-alcoholic spirits rather than juice and soda — an ordinary neighbourhood restaurant doing the thing properly rather than gesturing at it.
