This is a pub. A pub with an extra-ordinary amount of booty shaking when I went there last Saturday. A Caipirinha for 3.50 is also a bargain, although the barman may have been drunk and made a mistake as I think my friend paid 5.50. Lots of groups of friends that seem to have the place as a regular hangout. The DJ was good, playing a mix of Motown, funk and a bit of cool modern classics (who do you, who do you, who do you think you are? Hahaha bless you soulthat kind of thing).
The staff are nice too. For some inexplicable reason these guys close the door at 11pm and stop serving half an hour after that. So when my friend's brother came along with his girlfriend at 11:15 the guy at the door would not let them in...

So when my friend's brother came along with his girlfriend at 11:15 the guy at the door would not let them in. Now my friend had come all the way from Greece and it would have been a bit of a bummer for us to party with his little bro waiting outside so I spoke to the manager about letting them in. Now, I know a lot of places where they'll give you the sorry, these are the rules. Nowt we can do about it', but this dude was very understanding and let them in straight away. So a bit well-deserved love back to them and four stars, instead of what would have otherwise been three.
