after so many years this place still rocks. atmosphere like no other bar in town or any other piano bar ive been to. fastest serving bar staff ive seen in any bar. dont know what muppets going on about being to busy, get a life, and go to wine bars then. and obviously got a problem with the doormen, as he no doubt had to que, as its so popular!!!!

Went there on a night out and could not believe how overcrowded the place is, would definitely fail the health and safety regulations. The bar staff have severe attitude along with the bouncers and they favouritise female clientelle and treat guys like second class citizens. The seats are all ripped, the place is awash with spilt drinks and broken glasses and the toilet facilities are horrendous. I would suggest that everyone avoids this place and it should be shut down immediately and refurbished after all the amount they charge for their watered down alcohol, inside information, is atrocious, even their soft drinks and bottled water cost the earth. The place where everyone stand for a cigarette is a health hazard in itself as everyone is leaning against a single plate glassed window. I advise if you use the toilets to roll your trousers up or they should at least provide you with plastic covers for your shoes like you have to use to enter swimming pools now. I see someone else has commented that their are sugar daddies there well I would say they were old men drunk as skunks who would accept anything at the end of the night. My advice to all is campaign to get the place closed down

Great atmosphere and piano players who know their trade. Free entry but night-club price booze. The place is open 10pm - 3am (5am in August) so turning up at 11pm is early - turn up then if you want a seat for the night - but if you want to enjoy the atmosphere, get around the piano as the atmosphere starts to crank up and join in.
Fridays can get a bit hectic, and some Saturdays, and if you don't like singing along, it's probably not for you.

we arrived on an office night out at about 11pm and found the place almost deserted and no piano player on.We enquired as to when he was starting and were told that it wasnt busy enough yet. we had one drink and left.if they want to be busy then i suggest they provide what they are offering, piano entertainment when its advertised to be on.we will look elsewhere. they arent the only piano bar anymore the city centre has 2 or3 hopefully they wont let us down.

This is one of the best bars I have ever been in! Good music, good crowd and who would have thought you would find such a lot of groovy men in one place. Can't wait till the next night out - see you on the 13th! XXXX

It can get a bit crowded, especially after the other bars have closed. However, the music is good and gets even better when regular performer, Marc Julias Mowbray, tinkles the ivories.
