Large New West Coast Bar & Grill that was formerly Old Orleans.
The pub has 2 floors, a long bar with a part tiled and
wooden floor, and there is ample seating throughout.
To the right hand side of the main entrance there
are some low tables and chairs. The front of the pub
has doors that open out in the summer giving the
place a pleasant and cool atmosphere. To the left
hand side of the bar there is a large area with more
comfortable leather backed seating. This leads to a
small raised area with further seating to the front.
There is a long winding staircase near the main
entrance that leads to the restaurant upstairs.
The
pub is decorated in a West Coast style
with American
memorabilia adorning the stairs, walls and ceiling. Look out for the Surf board on the stairs.
The low drop
down lighting with smart flickering lights give an
inviting and cosy atmosphere. The pub is air
conditioned throughout with large ceiling fans. The
restaurant upstairs also has ample seating and there
is a small bar. The pub is mainly used by locals,
diners and business people. It can get very busy at
most times due to its proximity being near to the
Haymarket metro station. It is also very popular
with the young crowd Thursday to Saturday due to the
cocktails on offer.
Regular music on play at most
times. There are several Plasma Screens
throughout the bar with Live sports shown including
live football with Sky and ESPN matches featured. There are several games machines dotted about the pub with a table football machine to the left of the bar.
Disabled access is excellent with a lift next to the ladies toilet for customers
to get to and from the restaurant. Toilets are small and
clean.
