Customer Review Summary

Reviewers split on breakfast and coffee, with the 90s breakfast and a lovely lunchtime coffee drawing praise alongside friendly staff and generous portions. Others found small portions and poor food, and one group watching football got a gin and tonic with no ice or lemon. Two describe staff on phones, with one customer having to find someone to pay.

    “Lovely breakfast , staff friendly food lovely , will go there again 👍”

    “Popped in for a coffee yesterday. No sign of any staff. We had to go and find someone. The staff member was chatting in her phone in the kitchen. She made the coffees… still chatting on her phone. We then had to go and find her again to pay… she carried on talking on the phone, pushed the card machine at me … didn’t say a word to me. Not a great way to run a business & awful customer service. Won’t be returning.”

    “I am absolutely appalled at the poor service and bad manners received at this bar today. Attended as a group of 5 to watch the football. The bar tender clearly didn’t want to be there. Wanted a gin and tonic, asked for any other than Gordon’s, but that was the only option available unless wanted flavoured. Went with Gordon’s to be served it without ice, or lemon. When asked for ice, told they don’t have any. Did management know what was going on today. Usually go to the lounge which is owned by same people, the staff there have manners. Shame on you. From a local resident 😡”

    “⭐️⭐️⭐️☆☆ 90 Boldmere is less of a venue and more of a social experiment with cocktails. Let’s start with the vibe. It’s got real potential—nice interiors, decent drinks, and that “this could be a great night” energy. And then immediately reminds you it also has “we’ve run out of forks but not opinions” energy. Service is a mixed bag. Some staff are genuinely lovely, friendly, on it, making you feel like you’ve walked into your local without the drama. And then there are moments where you’re not sure if you’ve ordered a drink or accidentally disrupted someone’s entire life plan. The food is actually decent when it arrives, which feels like winning a small lottery. Portion sizes are generous, presentation tries its best, and taste usually shows up… eventually. Timing, however, operates on its own mysterious schedule. The atmosphere is where things get interesting. It can be buzzing, chatty, and actually really enjoyable—people having a good time, drinks flowing, all very “this is why we came.” Or it can swing into “we are all silently wondering what is happening and why the table is sticky.” There’s a strong sense that 90 Boldmere can be brilliant… just not necessarily on command. It’s got main-character energy, but sometimes forgets the script. Vibe: Chaotic-good pub energy trying very hard to behave like a classy bar, occasionally slipping into “group chat in real life” energy. Loud laughs, confused looks, and at least one moment per visit where you think “this place is actually quite good… or am I just hungry?” Overall: Would I come back? Yes. Do I fully trust it? Not remotely. But that’s half the fun. You don’t go to 90 Boldmere for consistency—you go for whatever version of 90 Boldmere shows up that day.”

    “Came here around lunch time the other day and was served by a delightful, charming young lady called Eliza who made me a lovely coffee. The food was also delicious and great value. Will absolutely be returning again soon!”
