“Horrific - I have worked in hospitality and been in this wee bar before but this experience made me never want to go back.. bar staff shouting at us to get out of the toilet saying she “knew what we where doing” we where just going to the toilet. Slammed the no service sign in front of our faces when we first entered.. horrible service. Girl had dark long hair and glasses”

“An absolute gem of a place . We did an impromptu trip up from Dublin to see a band we love and saw last night at the Olympia, remembered here from a previous visit and so pleased we did.

But for drinks and atmosphere and general all round fabulousness, this can't be beaten.”
