This is a real British pub experience I recommend to anyone. Even more so if you are looking to try…read moresome fantastic local ale. It's only a tiny pub but it attracts a lot of locals, which adds to the sense of community (there's usually a dog sniffing around after a tennis ball that people are throwing from each end of the pub). They have loads of board games to choose from, and a massive selection of Empire magazines, which is perfect for nerds like me. They have a great selection of cider and red wine as well, but really this is a vintage pub of which there are not too many left. By that I mean it hasn't been bought and kitted out with a shiny, soulless new interior and a 'gastro' style kitchen that focus on the garnish on your burger more than the quality of the pint in your hand. It is a cosy pub and the perfect place to sit and chat with mates. Check out the quiz on Tuesdays as well!

Although I live…read moreround the corner, this is definitely a place filled with those who've been in the area for a lot longer than four months, gathering round an excellent selection of beers and wines in a cosy, fairy lit atmosphere. The eclectically decorated walls are plastered over with beer mats from all over the world. There's also beautiful old original Victorian fittings which add a real sense of character. I was particularly impressed by the selection of Belgian beers (the owner is a fan), with all the matching glasses to boot. This is clearly run by someone who appreciated their alcohol, and bar staff tend to have a lot to say on the matter too, Although there never seems to be anyone in there, The Victoria is the perfect place to sit down on a wet and windy night to sip on a couple of 10% Kasteels.

All I did was ask if they had any other seating or if it was just the one room as it was currently full due to the bath half marathon. His response in a passive aggressive sarcastic tone was "It's just this I dunno what to tell you". Learn some customer service mate. You'd think looking like you do, you might know some humility. People are doing you a favour by having to try and ignore your gammy eye. Offer your customers the same courtesy of being polite.

They have a DJ on Fridays and Saturday nights and the customer crowd in mixed. Age ranges from people in their 20's up to their 50's.

Went on a Monday night so price was £6.95 and on Sundays and bank holidays it's £8.95. You get two meats of your choice, a sausage, stuffing and a Yorkshire pudding plus all the traditional vegetables such as potatoes, cabbage, parsnips, Califlour cheese, carrots etc.... Really tasty carvery! On a winters evening it had such a warming feel to it, we felt really welcomed and cosy sat in one of the booths. They do offer other pub classics in here but their speciality is the carvery as it is now called The Badminton Carvery. Worth a trip for sure! The food is amazing and so is the atmosphere!

As a diehard fan of Reggae and Ska, I love to come here to listen to some golden oldies or so hear something new. The friendly, happy staff work incredibly hard to serve you quickly and keep you happy. The Park has a real party atmosphere, where you'll never know who you'll meet, but you're guaranteed to be talking to a stranger by the end of the night. Sometimes a victim of its own success, The Park can get a little crowded at the weekend but Fridays and Saturdays are definitely the best night to go.

Park Bar is cleverly positioned next door to Mbargo as it offers a much more upmarket night out…read more The bar, music, crowd and décor are very different. The music here has always been spot on, with good hip hop, funk & soul (not the rubbish from the charts). So I would recommend it to anyone who, like me, thinks this is the best music to have a dance to. They have a really great bar but it's not cheap. If you want bargain booze head next door to Mbargo. This is a slightly more upmarket experience. We used to head here after work, because the drinks are so tasty and you can always find a great place to sit and chat with your mates. It attracts a slightly older crowd, in some cases people still living the dream who really should know better. One guy, although lovely and friendly (who wouldn't be at slightly less than sober 3 in the morning) did remind me of my dad. Some might say this is a classier crowd with a bit more cash to splash or simply with better, more expensive tastes. But it's mostly cool people who like to go out to bars, drink a lot of good booze in a tasteful place. This is a great bar to meet new people, due to the great atmosphere The Park has created it doesn't feel strange to strike up a conversation with a stranger here, and you can't say that about everywhere (especially in the UK). The entry prices on the door are pretty hilarious. They seem to be on a sliding scale depending on the time of night, how full the bar is and whether or not the bouncer likes the look of you. But it never costs too much, usually around a couple/few quid.
