Carlsberg export on tap - every time I go to this place I get hammered really quickly. Good thing in my book. Just as good on Friday as Saturday.

I really like this place, I agree with the statement that it's one for a saturday night, I do wish it was ever so slightly bigger, head or the bar during peak hours and it's like playing sardines. Having lived in scandinavia I'm itching to try the food.

I'm sure I paid knocking on for 4 quid for a pint of Carlsberg in here last night. I was so hammered though that it didn't seem that bad at the time

I liked it here, full of men with nordic beards, good quality drinks, worth visiting

One for a saturday this one. The place is infested with suits on a weekday and men trying to score with Scandinavian women.
Some imagination has gone into the place - some good cocktails (especially the berry ones), friendly bar staff and the approximate feel of a country cabin in Lapland.
So - as bars in this most diabolical of areas go, this is superior.

No self-respecting Scandinavian goes to this place more than once. Chock a block with dudes hoping to score with a Nordic lovely. Lykke til gutter!
|
Interesting pub, a good selection of Nordic beers, a cranberry one whose name escapes me was especially refreshing and strong (which must be why the name escapes me).
|
Phone in advance if you intending to go, maybe shut for a private party.
|
the word sweetshop springs to mind some nights in this place.

Really lovely place for a drink on a Friday after work. Bar staff are friendly and the daytime lighting at the back makes you think it's about 7 o clock when in fact it's last orders. Try the Artic Bramble cocktail. Yum.

Went there on Monday for half price wine. We were having a great time until some bloke nicked my friends bag. Noticed another pub on Newman St had same this month, so be very careful and keep you bag near you at all times.

The Nordic Bar does exactly what is says on the tin - beautiful nordic women, great bar staff and of course that wonderful Swedish cider - Kopparbergs... yummy yummy.....

Went there last night for the Sweden Denmark game and had the best night I have had for ages. Everyone in the place were lovely and alot of them were gorgeous. The bar staff were friendly (some were also stunning)and the Red Erik beer, though expensive was very tasty and extremely alcoholic (6.5%)Decor is shabby chic and the lighting is unusual.Well worth a visit!

Somewhat in the middle of nowhere on a quiet road off of Oxford St is the below street level Nordic. Pretty dark and pokey immediately inside, it's a bit nicer towards the nicely lit bar, but it is narrow. Music's loud enough to necessitate shouting over, and you'll more often than not have to stand all night. It's got a Scandinavian theme and the toilets make you feel as if you're in a Norwegian travel brochure. Presumably the barstaff near the Arctic circle are attractive yet surly like this place, and they too hand you your change on a small circular plate.
Fine if you like that sort of thing.
