| Bar service painfully slow at times. But beer very good: despite being disappointed that the UBU was out, I had a superb pint of Brains' Reverend James. Very well kept. Food was good and only took half an hour. Given the bar service I was worried it would take much longer. Superb "vault" location, very atmospheric. john8pr - 30 Dec 2011 18:37 |
| Pretty good - interesting decor, decent pint of Doombar. Tad overpriced (£7.80 for that and a vodka & tonic). Relaex atmosphere, can be a bit tricky getting a table at times. MisterSifter - 20 Sep 2011 13:31 |
| Excellent decor (* its mostly fibreglass ..), not easy to find as in a hotel lobby cum shopping arcade ! On my visit there were two Thornbridge beers on both were excellent, well recommend this place if passing. Number.6 - 21 Feb 2011 21:50 |
| Bacchus is a strange pub. But in a good way. Upon first entering you might be mistaken for thinking it's actually four different bars. If you go in with somebody, one of you could be sitting in a Medieval banquet room, while three feet away your friend is in a Rennaissance Library. It's beautifully decorated whichever room you sit in. Unfortunately it's let down by expensive drinks and food. Don't get me wrong, the meals my girlfriend and I had were very nice (standard Nicholsons' menu) but the beer was pretty poor and not worth the £3 and upwards I paid for it (and this was 2 years ago). The staff in there seemed a bit standoffish as well and don't seem to make an effort to get anybody served quickly. Understandable if they were busy but this was on a quiet Wednesday night.

| Absolutely no excuse for this let down. At least four lines of which two were shut for line cleaning at 5pm. Could the owner / manager get their lazy asses out of bed before the bar opens to clean the lines? The limited and uninspiring choice (of two) was overpriced. Food was too expensive to wet the appetite. Such a pity as with the location this place could be something special! FloridaM - 20 Jan 2011 17:17 |
