| - Been here many times, and it always gives me very mixed feelings. In some ways each night out there is a battle between great beer and all the really poor aspects.
The good:
- Great beer list
- Really great beer list
The poor:
- Staff are generally not knowledgeable or interested in your order - I've many times been given wrong information, been poorly served (e.g. no glasswear provided for a strong, darker beer with foil covering), or not served at all (waiting 15 minutes at the bar to get an order in)
- Atmosphere completely contrasts with the drinks menu - feels/sounds much more like a downscale meat market than somewhere to appreciate the variety of beer on the menu
- Bouncers are, in general, giant jerks
I might add that my poor impressions aren't based on one bad night out - I have been here numerous times, although rarely go anymore. Bottom line is that if you're going out with a large group and want a club-like atmosphere, it could be good. If you're looking for somewhere to try a lot of beers and have a conversation, stay away and go to BeerBistro, Volo, C'est What or Smokeless Joe's instead.
