Bedford Street Bar

Good atmosphere. Friendly staff behind the bar. Fun and friendly atmosphere. Had to leave in the end because I couldn't hear what the person I was with was saying. But good fun for groups and work groups.

Great pub, a lot going on, gigs, jam jazz Wednesday etc

Had such a fun night! Travelled all the way from Newcastle to reunite with my best friends! Such a fun night which played the best music will be back for sure!

This is a place my wife, friends, and I frequently visit on weekends to enjoy drinks, dancing, and the night. Usually, it's quite enjoyable, but yesterday was a disaster. I was abruptly escorted out by a bodyguard while enjoying time with my friends. The reason? The bodyguard mistakenly thought I was vaping indoors, although everyone else was doing so, and I don’t smoke at all. I was sober and would have willingly left if asked. Instead, the bodyguard forcibly removed me from behind, resembling a criminal, in front of my wife and friends. It was a deeply humiliating moment. The security outside documented the incident, and I believe they have the name of the bodyguard involved. I hope the management takes appropriate action upon seeing this.

Good from what I remember but it was towards end of night

I visited this venue on a Saturday evening and went to the bar to order drinks. I requested two double gins with lemonade, and a pint of Brixton larger. The barmaid gestured across the bar to the card machine, which was difficult to reach as the venue was quite busy. I immediately got a notification on my phone showing I was charged £35.30. I asked how much this should have cost me, and I was told it was £12 for a double gin and mixer and £6 for a pint of Brixton larger. I said that doesn't add up to what I was charged. The barmaid muttered "get lost" and proceeded to serve the next customer and ignored my attempts to refute the transaction. This venue will take advantage of the crowds and noise to commit fraud in front of your very eyes. Avoid at all costs.

So, this spot is usually where my husband, our buddies, and I hit up for weekend vibes. But our last outing was a total mess. My husband got the boot by some bodyguards while we were all just chilling. And get this: they thought he was vaping inside, but he's never even touched the stuff. Sober as a judge, too. Would've bounced if they just asked, but nope, they yanked him out like he was some kind of criminal, right in front of all of us. Super embarrassing. Luckily, the guys outside saw what went down, and I bet they know who's behind it. Hope the management steps up and sorts this out, 'cause that was just not cool.
