I am Disabled and after walking past the first door staff, another member of door staff decided "No entry". THIS BUSINESS DOES NOT ADHERE TO LEGISTATION AS NO DOOR STAFF HAD THEIR ISA LICENCE ON VIEW. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED TO AVOID!

Lovely pub which pours a great pint of Guinness The best part is the staff. Very nice and friendly. It is also dog friendly up to like 9pm. Before then. On the weekend it does get nosier for the dog though.

Ordered burger fries and the food was very poor, the bacon was undercooked and it felt shoved into this box, the chips were soggy and the burgers were inconsistently broken up (large pieces and smaller pieces)

Absolutely awful, one of the workers had the audacity to kick me out for apparently bringing in my own alcohol, then he was also selling alcohol to under 18s without ID, to finish off the person who served me was also the one who kicked me out for no reason, i tried to tell him but he concluded with i seen you drink the alcohol, even though i didn’t. Honestly the reviews may differ but the expierence had wasn’t particularly pleasing. That worker should be sacked for good. I can’t believe something like that would happen, i also rang their number to file a complaint it was then later procedded with the same person who gave me verbal abuse over the phone. Absolutely disappointed in this service.

Cocktails at Hop House Bangor , don’t bother , ordered 2 Mai Tai Cocktails £8 each , tasted like alcohol free drinks , complained and demanded the replacement be mixed in front of me , bar man used a premixed plain bottle which in insured me contained Bacardi & Cointreau premixed , he proceeded to put 2 measures of this premixed bottle in a cocktail shaker with juice etc , when I tasted the 2nd batch , they were a little stronger than the 1st but still not right , I asked why real measures of Bacardi & Cointreau where not used and he said for speed in a half empty bar 🤪, when I asked to taste the mixed bottle I was refused 👿

Was here on Friday night with my wife and we were unfortunate enough to witness 2 young women being verbally and physically abused by the door staff. They were sitting together chatting and were asked to leave the premises over someone being "cheeky" the week before. One girl said it was her first ever night in Bangor and was told in no uncertain terms to "GET OUT TO F*%K, reatedly, while being manhandled and squared up to. Even though they were leaving, and said as much, they were still pushed out repeatedly while being verbally abused with personal comments about their weight/appearance etc... What an absolutely disgusting experience for anyone to witness, or be on the receiving end of. And after speaking to the girl outside, who's first night it was in Bangor, (we left soon after), it turns out she is a school teacher. We recorded most of the event and are trying to find the girls involved for their approval to publish it online. I'm trying not to lower myself here, but it must be said. Your bouncers are absolute scumbags! Disgraceful isn't a strong enough word!

Holy Sh*f!!!!!!! It's Friday the 6th of November, 2021. I went to order my burger upstairs as usual. I was stopped by two complete thugs at the front door. I said I want to go upstairs and get a burger. Never identifying themselves, they aggressively asked me to remove my mask and when that did not satisfy them, they insisted I pull down my hood. Which I did and said I just want to go in for a burger. At this point one of the men put their hand on my chest and I said fine, f**k the burger and walked away as the two yelled to me, get out of here you f*ing Brit! Whatever that means to you and your fine education there, Sporto? LOL. So nearly assaulting a 50 year old man who doesn't drink and just wanted his burger, maybe a milkshake too, is how you think we should spend our Friday night?? Consider taking those losers off your front door before you have lost another regular customer or worse, they hurt someone. So sad because the burgers are so good. Not worth that sh!t-show though. Also note that I did not feel it necessary to write a negative review last week when you left me sitting for over one hour for a take-away burger you never made. I appreciated the free fries but i do not appreciate my experience tonight. I found it extremely shocking, distressing, and threatening behavior. Honestly, what is wrong with them? Besides the obvious? I do not wish to insult their choice of methods, but if this is the best you could find in the area of security I completely understand why women feel they are so much safer staying at home these days. You can not be part of the solution when you are blatantly part of the problem.

Where to begin with the shocking service levels. Choose this place as it was dog friendly, came in for a late lunch on a very hot day. We tried to order 2 burgers, messy fries, a bottle of beer, cocktail and a coke zero through the app but this kept failing. Eventually a waiter came, he literally took a photo of our order, so he had a picture of it. Impossible to mess up you might think.... also asked for a bowl of water for the dog. They took payment in advance. It was a really hot day so expected the drinks to come first. Nope. After a wait the piping hot food came, which was difficult to eat as we were gasping for drinks. The messy fries were the wrong order, it didn't have the toppings in the order...which he had a picture of. Beer and cocktail arrive just as we were finishing the food. I reminded the waiter we'd ordered a coke zero too, and were still waiting on water for the dog. No problem he says. More time passes, food is long gone, beer and cocktail long finished but still no sign of the coke zero and water for the dog. Thankfully another table had left and there was a bowl of water under their's, so we were able to take that for the dog at least. Eventually we just had to leave without getting the coke zero we'd paid for. So as I say, either the waiter had the memory of a goldfish or they just like to charge you for items they never bring, but happily charge you for. Couldn't possibly ever consider going back to such a shambolic setup which essentially steals from you.
