Brilliant atmosphere - such a credit to Barnsley Town Centre, it’s just what it needed. Bar staff are amazing and are always happy to serve / help out. Drinks menu suits all and reasonably priced. Will definitely return in the near future. Plenty of food options around whilst you enjoy your drinks too!
Really nice bar with great choice of quality drinks - loads of different draft and canned beers, including radlers for low alcohol, and a good cocktail list too. Plus they do coffees and other hot drinks. The staff are really friendly, helpful and knowledgeable too, and they do offers sometimes. Definitely give this bar a visit if you're in town.
Any time of day, this is a fab place to come have a drink. Bar staff are friendly & happy to recommend their faves (tends to be a sign of the management treating them well, having worked in a bar myself) and happy to make changes eg non-alcoholic versions; the drinks are always well made and the people-watching from the market kitchen is unrivalled!! Would definitely recommend this one 💜
Excellent town centre bar. Staff are super friendly and professional. Great cocktails too. Looking forward to my next visit.
If you’ve not been here before you need to check it out! Great set up for a bar in a food hall, fantastic range of products, quality cocktails and with a well run, friendly team! Great attention to detail to add value for customers like my Paulaner in a frozen stein glass on NYE 👏
