Reviews for Wax Bar
I would not recommend Wax bar to anyone, the management are terrible and do not deserve your custom. I had booked an area 3 weeks in advance for my 21st birthday on 7th Feb 09 with the promoter, as advertised on the flyer. When I arrived on Saturday, I was extremely disappointed to find my area was not booked, and this was very embarressing for me in front of my party. The manageress was very rude and not apologetic at all, claiming no responsibility, that this was the promoter's fault, nothing to do with Wax, even though the event is held at Wax! As a customer who chose to hold her party at Wax and bring them income, this was not the response I expected.
The flyer says the event ends at 3am, but actually ended at 2am on the night. The security personnel behaved extremely over the top and unacceptably. We were ready to leave at 2am, but were waiting for one of the party to return from the ladies so we could all leave together. But the security guard kept pestering us and physically pushed my fiance and my brother who was innocently standing at the bar! The bar staff even looked shocked at this, as there was no reason for this behaviour. I did not invite my guests to my party so they could be physically pushed at the end of the night! I am extremely angry that this happened, especially with the amount of custom we brought to your bar on this night and the fact that we were doing nothing wrong, we were actually leaving! How dare this behaviour be allowed. The security guard would not reveal his name, as he probably knew what he was doing was wrong. I hope he will be dealt with suitably.
There are plenty other bars in this area, but I wouldn't recommend Wax.
I went to Wax bar a few weeks back - music was very good. Staff are friendly and the bartenders can dish up some good cocktails! It looks deceivingly small from the outside, but its fairly big once you get downstairs. Would go again.
I was at Wax Bar for their Happy Hour a few weeks ago and was surrised with the amount of food which was served, given the modest pricing. I did not expect the quality of the food to be at such a high standard either.
Really good place for a casual dinner.
I found myself having the time of my life in a little bar that I got dragged along to for a "couple" when the DJ started spinning my favoruite classics and never ended up going to my exs birthday dinner. Although I knew this would mean trouble later.
We started off with a bottle of wine between the three of us, then moved onto the cocktails when the music began and I didnt want to leave. I didnt have to persuade any of my crew as we ordered another round after round after round. Stopping only for a cheeky canape as we didnt get out in time for dinner.
I found the place classy but not pretentious and snobby as some of the bars in the area. The staff were all smiles, and I want to thank them all for making my night!
FANTASTIC!!! Went here on Saturday and had an amazing time. We booked an area for 30 people and had the best night we've had in a long time! They played a mix of all types of music which meant that most of my group was happy. We had some food with our area booking and they made sure we had a good night. Watch out Wax we will be back!!!!
