Review:
Large
bar that is very popular, with a good
selection of reasonably priced drinks and meals and
entertainment on most nights.
The decor and furnishings are of a Moroccan style with mosaic tiling around the bar and
low drop down lanterns.
There is an abundance of seating throughout with
tables and chairs in a raised area at the front and
more comfortable leather settees in the
centre of
the bar. There is also some high chairs next to the
bar and some cubicles to the left of the main
entrance for the more intimate couples.
The
bar area has a wooden floor and the low subdued
lighting creates a cosy atmosphere. The large
windows to the front and side also make the place
bright and airy through the day.
Regular
music is on play at most times with a regular DJ
every night of the week. On a Monday there is now
a "Koochy" night with a choice of 3 DJ's from 8pm
- 1am playing house music. Friday - Arcade with deep electro, punk funk, kitsune and house sounds. There is also a Jazz
night on a Sunday from 8pm - 10.30pm.
To the rear there is an
enclosed area with some seating
that could accommodate small parties and functions when required.
The bar attracts a mixed clientele of business
people, students and people making there way to
and from the railway station.
Disabled access
is very good with a designated disabled toilet to
the rear. The toilets are smart and clean.
Price:
Reasonable. More
expensive outside happy hours.
