Review:  


Large modern style restaurant/bar that was formerly known as The Baltic Tavern and more recently Bonded Warehouse /Wig & Pen. The bar has been given a smart upgrade with a more stylish look. The layout is the same as before however the bar has been extended into the former Wig & Pen next door.

There is large windows to the front that gives a bright and airy feel to the place with wooden flooring. The decor is a mix of cream and maroon colours with brick walls. There is plenty of seating with wooden high tables and chairs and more comfortable settees.

There is regular music on play at most times. Widescreen plasma TV's are dotted about the bar with sports shown. Fully air conditioned throughout. A cash machine is located to the rear of the bar.

The bar will become a firm favourite when it has become more established and should be popular with the business crowd and regular quayside revellers. It should be busy at most times with the menu on offer. Quiz night - Tuesday.




Disabled access to main bar is very good. Toilets to the rear of the bar are clean and in good order.

 


Price
Moderate.
