The door staff have a major attitude problem. Can't even smoke OUTSIDE,have to go down the steps to the main street and get bothered by down and outs looking for cash. Best to go to Bar 12 the bouncers are a lot more customer orientated !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I know what you mean about the doormen. it seems they just do a bit of eenie meenie, and if they think you're gonna buy a lot of drink, you're in.
I like the jazz nights a lot, there's a touch of class

Somebody asked if it's really haunted. I'm not sure but there are some spooktacular bands play there on frightday nights. You can start off with a bit of grub downstairs first. They do a mean ghoulash and you can finish with Iscream before going upstairs. The doormen are a bit spooky. One acts the hard man but you can see right through him.
