Lamars

If your on a hen night then awesome Otherwise avoid unless. cheesy hen night music is your thing

Lamars is all fur-​coat and no knickers.
Essentially, its an expensive looking bar that is filled with statues (which, hilariously, someone has drawn pubes all over) and golden masks and… basically, all the kind of gaudy chintz you’d expect to see in a footballer’s hallway.
The drink is pricey and utterly uninspiring and served by staff that look so bored that you fear that they may have special training for it.
Apparently, it gets very busy over the weekend, but midweek (when I visited), it was very quiet indeed and very soulless.
One thing that did bring a wry smile was the typically dreary trip-​hop soundtrack that made me feel like I’d wondered into 1996.
I can only imagine how hideous it is when it is filled with mooing Mac users.
Basically, avoid this place.

Lamars can get pretty busy on a weekend, but it is a trendy type bar without all the attitude you can get in some flashier parts of the city. Food is good, not always space to sit down if you are just in for a drink, and no dancing really. Tends to be the place to go for a few drinks before you head off to somewhere with a dance floor. Good service, but pretty busy.

Lamars is named after Frank Foo-​foo Lamar, It’s a very trendy and somewhat expensive drinkery and eatery. The décor is lovely, but it does get very busy at weekends and you will end up standing and being pushed by people trying to get past-​as there isn’t enough seating. It’s primarily a restaurant– but there’sa lot of people who just use the bar. Toilets are clean, head down early to get a seat. Some of the clientele can be snobby and rude, so if you do get pushed around– don’t expect a sorry!
