City Wall Wine Bar in Medway

Great little drinking spot opposite the local club... Can get lively but definitely good for the start of a night on the tiles 😉👌🏽

Nice pub, friendly staff and good laugh with the karaoke

Popped in for a couple on saturday night, excellent place, really friendly staff, decent prices, able to sit outside, enjoyed it here.

Great atmosphere drinks little bit pricey but great venue friendly cool xxx

Love the owner and staff the best love it

Certainly was very interesting, Sunday evening was karaoke night, with some very good singers. Atmosphere was very good and if your a person watcher, this is certainly a good place to go, definitely, not dull

Quite expensive for what it is. £9 for a pre-mixed cocktail on tap, served in a plastic glass.

Nice local bar. They have a cocktail happy hour from 6 to 8 PM every day. Order one, and get one for free.

I can not rate the food as I've not eaten here. But I have attended during the weekend evenings. They usually have a DJ. I prefer one over the other. It can get very, very packed and difficult to move around. The mens toilets are absolutely tiny, so privacy is almost non-existent, and the state and smell of them are vile. The music is good if you go when the better DJ is there. The bar staff seem friendly. Unfortunately, you do get the usual young idiots in there that can barely handle their drink or are arrogant, but you can get them pretty much at any night spot on a weekend.

Went to a gig here, excellent atmosphere, great venue, landlord really knows his stuff. Staff were very efficient.

Was here for a drink on the weekend. Was ok, music was good, friendly bar staff and friendly doormen.

Says on the door KARAOKE ON EVERY SUNDAY Went there just for the karaoke and guess what NO KARAOKE Don't have it on the day if your not doing it

Abby or however you spell her name is AN ABSOLUTE ASSET. So helpful and slay

Had lunch there today food was good

Awful place, poor bar service as the staff are either chatting or on their phones. Very uncomfortable atmosphere, with some of the younger customers so drunk or off their heads on something else? One saving grace was the excellent door staff who were keeping an eye on a few of them. Left early and not a place I will return to.

Went to this bar on a Sunday for the live music. The atmosphere was great and the various musicans who went up and jammed were really good.

My daughter took me there for Mothers Day with my grandson who is 5 such friendly staff good atmosphere good music very friendly highly recommend

Nice place but the beer is a touch pricey

I went there because a group of us went to a comedy night there. It was a very good evening, the staff were excellent. I have not scored it highly though as I am a real ale drinker and would generally choose any one of the establishments nearby that sell real in preference.

A nice bar with friendly staff. Went to a couple of open mic nights hosted there and the turnout wasn't great but I suspect given time it will be very popular as there is lots of both standing and sitting space and the place has a lovely feel.

We felt very welcome by the regulars - especially as they made room for us to sit down and listen to the live jazz band. We got free roast spud bar food to nibble at while we got gently pickled, swaying to the great music from 1 - 3.30pm.

Nice bar, great atmosphere with the music

No food but good beer. Went to see my granddaughter play a jazz session in Kent Youth Jazz Orchestra.

great afternoon with a really good band on boxing day. Will definitely be back

Brilliant pub, great seafood stall outside at Gillingham Street Angels, I believe they are going to start selling it inside too.

The city wall is a friendly place and staff are friendly. The live music is always great and a good atmosphere. I go there with friends and we always have a great time.

A fun and lively bar frequented by some colourful characters from around the area. They have some good live music frequently and cheap(ish) drinks which make it the ideal place to meet up with friends at the start of an evening.

Chanced upon bar and band after the Christmas fair. Enjoyed our time there.

Quirky, great atmosphere, very friendly staff

Had a great time here. Staff were awesome. Me and the wife didn't want to leave. The street angels grill outside was the best. Their customer service was best I've experienced. Can't wait to go back. On a foot note we aren't young but totally did not feel out of place. Was so welcomed.

Amazing place friendly member of staff

Good morning! Here's a review for the City Wall Wine Bar: "City Wall Wine Bar is an absolute gem for special occasions like birthdays or casual gatherings with friends. The ambiance is perfect for creating memorable moments. During our visit, we took advantage of their fantastic buy one get one offer on cocktails, which added to the enjoyment of the evening. As for the food, we tried the pulled pork with fries and the steaks with fries, both of which were not only generous in quantity but also incredibly delicious. City Wall Wine Bar undoubtedly knows how to deliver both in terms of quality and taste. It's a must-visit for those looking for a great time with friends or celebrating a special event."

A wine bar in the middle of Rochester High Street. Fast service and a good selection of drinks.

Bit pricey for drinks good night out here and definitely need bigger toilets not suitable for wheelchair users

Really hard to dislike this place, I've now lived here for a year. They do comedy nights, jazz for the older gen every single week, doggy brunches. If you hit it Friday night you may be in shock. The cocktails whilst questionable are some of the cheapest anywhere. £9 for two cocktails between 6-8 pm really can't be sniffed at. It acts as sort of a mini club to the casino rooms where people pre-drink on Fridays and Saturdays. The burgers in here are amazing I've had them home delivered and ate in. Again looking at the place with it's light up bar and 10 Cactus jacks for £10 you would struggle to believe. They also have the Gillingham street angels food shack out back with some really nice cheap eats that goes to a good cause. The garden could do with a little bit of TLC, would rate it 4.5/5 if I could. Only reason it loses the 1 star is can't imagine myself taking a family member for a nice meal there, there is always a very strange odour and finally not to sound too snobby but you get some characters in there.

I tried to get a Coca Cola, and the bar staff kept saying how I was too drunk and how they couldn't serve me, but I wanted a non-alcoholic drink. How can you be responsible but not serve the "drunk customer" a non-alcoholic drink. I hadn't seen them refuse service to one single customer for the whole rest of the night, so they clearly only refused service to certain customers who they disliked.

Brilliant at the Sweeps Festival

Kid friendly place. Always a gracious host for events.

Quick pitstop. Drink was fine, staff friendly.

Perfect place to dance the night away.

It gets really hot and humid on Friday and Saturday nights 🤣 the music is good, drinks are ok. We did not have any food, so I can not comment on it.

This place does live music and select of drinks that's beers, ciders and cocktails.

I popped in for a coffee in the afternoon so it was empty, with friendly staff. Very barren when no live music, but on gig nights, it's fab.

Good value for money. The burger was really nice but I'd say I've had better but those tend to be more expensive. I did however like the chips and would rather these compared to ones from other restaurants. The milkshake was not too bad but I prefer them to be thicker. It was pretty much empty around 6pm on a Saturday night but soon picked up around 8 when people started coming in for drinks. Would go again.

Good Saturday DJ. Good vibes. Friendly staff. Can't fault

Very nice place. Friendly and busy love it

Great bar, good atmosphere & fantastic jazz on Sunday lunchtimes

Friendly staff- put on an excellent childrens Christmas charity party👍

I was quite drunk in here on Friday but have to say it's a nice place to be drunk, good humoured bar staff and door staff, and the beer was good and not over priced.

Great night out although floors very very wet (puddles by the bar) towards the end of the night, great music, drinks flowed..

We visited during the day, and during the Dickens festival. But service was great, and prices were reasonable.

friendly management and staff , reasonable prices, Live music .

Had the Sunday roast platter for 10 of us food was cold even the gravy was just lukewarm. The meat was good but tough.

Great place good prices and a lit of fun!

Good place for a dance if you have had a few. Toilets could be bigger tho

A party pub, good for a night out in a crowd

Went here during the Cocktail Wristband event early evening. Bar staff were chatty and had a smile. Loos were ok. Outside seating area. Food menu available. Lots of offers on drinks available to.

Thank you to Sanjay and your team for making my leaving party on Friday a happy one... Apologies for the tipsy teachers!

Great Quiz Nights and 2 for 1 cocktails before 8 pm!

The best staff. The best patrons. Amazing DJs. I would go every day if I lived there.

Put in a song request 4 hours before Karaoke closed, never got called up lol. Brought friends here saying it was great fun and we all put in requests but he never called us up. Happened a few times. He only seems to call up the younger women too, so I’m not sure what’s happening there…?

Because of this place I left Rochester with a bitter taste.. I spent a really nice time in Rochester (a few hours of visiting the small town) but it ended bad. We were thirsty and we thought of buying a couple of drinks before we return to London...and first I asked them if they do take away because I am in a rush. They said yes, everything good ‘till the bodyguard said that we were not allowed to leave the place with the drinks. I went to the bar to solve the issue but they said we could not go and we need to stay inside to drink them. My child and my dog were outside waiting for me to go.. Then I asked them for a refund because I didn’t have time to stay, they were rude and unapproachable...they didn't take responsibility for this at all...I don't recommend this place.

Difficult one this as to my eyes this establishment would not be out of place in some Mediterranean seaside promenade, consequently it feels a little out of place in a historic Rochester high street, that said if you like your bars a little more edgy and your music and lighting loud and modern you'll probably love it. The staff are friendly and there seems to be a variety of beverages available for imbibing, I suspect that over the weekend this place is probably heaving...

Fantastic bar and staff good community spirt always available for our veterans and local events

Bartender was great... shots and lemonade, genius. The rest is okay.

Alright, happy hour was good tho 🥳

Always a good time and laugh to be had at the City Wall, so many good fun memories with friends. They try really hard to make sure there's always some entertainment happening each night and the staff are really friendly. Cant go wrong with 2 for 1 cocktails every evening, just make sure you're there before 8pm when the offer ends. They've just had a new state of the art cellar system put in, probably the best poured pints on the highstreet now! Update: Went to their Jam Session tonight (every Tuesday) had a great night. The band and musicians were fantastic!

Lovely friendly place I went to a medium meeting here and apart from a bit squashed because of a lot of people it was a great night :)

Karoke and cheap cocktails, with live Dj nights giving it a semi club feel. It's better when it isn't packed.

Good selection of beers and friendly staff

Great cocktails, really friendly atmosphere and super friendly and helpful staff.

Sunday jazz Starts at 1pm Excellent service, great crowd and of course Jazzz 😀

Great friendly bar staff great food as well freshly cook in front of you and thay ask about allergies and recommendations of what you can have

It's a lovely place and they have got lovely staff

Who doesn't love a drink here. It's iconic. The staff friendly and approachable. Prices ok. Floor, completely sticky (standard but from the good old days). Enjoyed myself. Liked it.

Lucky to get even one star! Bloody arrogant unprofessional bar staff

Popped in as happened to be cycling past at the time and noticed live music playing. Lovely singer, and also the shadows was great. Great pub. :D

Great crowd, even better food by Jackson out back.

Classic Rochester party pub for the big night out banging tunes lots of beer and shots..... Got to be visited on a big night out......

Drinks way too expensive. Top part of outside area with picnic tables needs ground sorting out. Friendly staff...

Amazing time playing there weekly quiz night and fantastic service from the bar staff. Highly recommended night out for a knees up laugh with a great atmosphere. Only downside was they had there air conditioner on which made it rather cold inside

Too packed, especially during a pandemic but not going to moan about that seeing as it was my choice to go in there!! Took me ages just to get to the toilet though because too many people in the way who rudely wouldn't move out of the way even though they saw that I was trying to move past them. I got pushed whilst trying to walk to the toilet and got knocked into the bar side. Staff were pleasant though and the music was good but only stayed for one drink because of it being far too busy. Also didn't like that my feet stuck to the floor, never like places where it's like that, makes me feel like it's dirty

Not my scene but seemed clean and good seating area outside. Drinks were expensive compared to other places on the high street.

Security seem to just grab drinks and quite frankly nearly triggered me by scaring me. Just say no drink outside and I would have left it inside. Simples

Venue and staff were brilliant.. needs bigger toilets tho

Absolutely recommended with a good DJ. And had great people to celebrate with...

Bit mental but reckon I'm just getting old, what I will say is that the door people were ace with wheelchairs lifting up the steps so that we could be on the platform outside, stopping people so we could get through, class act!!

Nice extra cold John Smith's Smooth and an interesting interactive quiz

Had a swift half whilst walking around Rochester town centre

Very friendly. Great service. Low prices

Nice staff, bit expensive, bit of a takeaway vibe to it

Great food excellent entertainment friendly service.

Good pub... Safe and secure through covid.. And some good tunes from Andy White this afternoon too...

Nice place. But the garden needs cleaning as well as the toilets

Toilets horrid, only nice food now not workjng from there any more

3rd visit here. Went on a Sunday afternoon with the girls. Had a wicked time, Andy White was brilliant on the guitar and singing. Loved it. Fast service, especially given situation. Safe to visit :)

Friendly staff couldnt do more to help

Drinks weren't strong and felt like watered down. Not worth the price. Quite a chavvy place

Nice to be back out in town, city wall have laid out table areas outside when you can sit. Queue up and wait for a table which doesn't take too long. Only downside is the London pricing of the drinks.

Wasn't impressed when we went in to the wine bar & was told by the manager that we didn't have to wear our face masks.
