Lyric Bar & Grill in Derry

Hotel bar / restaurant -No vegan wine -Friendly staff -Minimal vegan options on the menu but the curry 🍛 I had was delicious 😋 🤤

A nice place to sit to have a bite to eat or drink.The bar is full of interesting music history pictures of Derry. Comfortable seating and usually queit enough if your looking for somewhere to have a chat and a drink.

Asked for steak medium rare. Instead I got a dry sunday dinner, steak was well done and dry, carrots were undercooked. spuds were the only good part. Do not recommend the food to anyone

Great Entertainment and excellent service for Christmas Dinner wrost Dinner is Fish and chips and Cillie Food great venue for Wedding and Christmas Formal and more Etc

Nice relaxed atmosphere. Loved the triple cooked chips. Good prompt service Ezra our waitress was so nice and very helpful. Glad to see non alcohol cocktails available

This bar and restaurant is part of a hotel. The walls are decorated with photographs related to the musical scene in Derry. It had a fairly upmarket feel and two small bottles of prosecco cost £18.

We went for mothers day bottomless brunch. their chef should be sacked. menu was ridiculous for mothers day. Pasta, battered fish, vegetable curry, chicken cochons. we complained we don't eat what was on the menu. We where given another menu. we where charged an extra £6 for ordering off that menu. £23 for the meal. £5 deposit.£3 FOR A Gravy boat. £4 for garlic chips. £41 in total. meal was cold. we had to have them dinners re heated. chef looked at us with a angry face as we complained. who serves dinner like that for Mothers day. wont be back. left feeling very annoyed as chicken was very tiny. meal was not up to standard.

Nice bar with a nice variety of draught on tap

What a pleasure to dine here, great food, complements to chefs Noel and Gareth, brought to us by the waiter, Cairan, service with a smile.

Fuimos un par de veces a tomar una copa y probamos la comida una vez. Estuvo bien, nada especial. El bar tiene un tema musical con algunas fotos interesantes y tocaron buena música. Me imagino que este podría ser un buen lugar si se permitiera música en vivo. Estoy seguro de que esto sería mucho mejor sin las restricciones de COVID.

They weren’t lying about the brunch being bottomless, aisling and Sam were always coming down and making sure everyone had a drink!

Got the bangers and mash with a pint of Guinness and it was amazing. The black pudding mash was a revelation for me. The pint of G was solid too. Nice and chilled place.

Went into the Lyric bar for a pre dinner drink, lovely photos on the walls and nice atmosphere. The staff was friendly and professional I would definitely recommend a visit

Poor, poor service. Didn’t even get the chance to order. My husband & I stopped in for an early dinner as the menu looked good & it wasn’t very busy. The waiter was just bringing food to another couple when we sat down. He then brought a bill to another couple at the table next to us. They looked like they had been waiting a bit to get their bill. The waiter walked right by us again to the table the couple just left, cleared it off & then came back to wipe it down. The waiter then went behind the bar & made busy work of cleaning & playing with the till. He TOTALLY IGNORED us. He could easily see us from the bar but refused to look in our direction. We walked out. Apparently we weren’t the “right type” of customer.

Lovely place to relax only problem was food was very salty

We stopped in for lunch and the food was great. Some of the local people we hangin’ out and singing with the music. Loads of fun.

Alan was OUR barkeeper and serviceman. He was very friendly and we had serveral nice stays in his bar. Everything was fine.

We had lunch in the restaurant here and we had 3 courses with a variety of dishes for 5 of us and the food was outstanding, our waiter/ manager was very attentive the whole time we were there, I would highly recommend it for couples or families

Can’t believe there are so many 5 star reviews on here. Visited for evening meal to witness extremely slow service due to ONE person running the bar and front of house. He was running round like a mad man, dropping cutlery and serviettes, not very professional. Waited 20 mins for my drink and order to be taken. No cutlery when food arrived. Fish and chips seemed good value....hmm probably one if the worst I have tasted. Very greasy chips and batter in 3 separate goujons. The fish was tasteless and grey, definitely not cod or haddock which is much more tasty and flaky. They are near the sea for fresh fish! If I come back to Derry I will be eating elsewhere I’m afraid. Not recommended.

I booked this hotel because they advertised "live music every night" in hotel bar. It turned out to have no entertainment at all. Appently restaurant was recently refurbished, when we were there restaurant walls were dirty and had old food splatter on them. We also returned our evening meal due to chemical smell and taste from food. Strong urine smell from ensuite. I very much regret booking a two night stay here.

Had bar food lunch and it was very poor. Something as easy as fish and chips was well below average. Fish came out in three slim goujons which, whilst the batter was crisp, had little to zero fish. Plate was left very greasy. The mushy peas were dreadful- dry, chalky and not edible. Chips were fine. All in all paid £12 for batter and chips and a soda water. Would not recommend and would definitely not return. There are much much nicer places to eat, for better value in the same vicinity.

My wife and I had a great couple of hours in the bar on Saturday evening, really enjoyed the live music which was driven by requests - it seemed as if the singer knew every song ever released !! Nice selection of beers etc, great service

Spent a few days at the Derry City Maldron. Great comfortable place to enjoy some downtime. Very impressed with folks working there as they really seem to enjoy their jobs. I recommend it for a pint or a quick bite if you’re visiting Derry.

Nous étions en famille, un dimanche soir, et il n'y avait qu'un seul serveur (ou deux à certains moments, je pense qu'ils se relayaient à l'accueil de l'hôtel aussi). Nous avons eu un peu pitié du serveur, qui était agréable en face à face, mais qu'on voyait débordé... la salle n'était pas bondée, mais c'était aussi très lent en cuisine et les clients (comme nous) étaient impatients. Nous avons attendu 50 mn avant l'arrivée de nos plats (dont 3 plats enfants, particulièrement rapides à préparer). Heureusement (??), la télé a occupé les enfants (les infos n'étaient pas particulièrement intéressantes pour eux, il nous a fallu expliquer pas mal de conflits géopolitiques et détourner leur attention des images stressantes). Ce soir-là, pas de burgers. Plats variés (indien, sandwich, pizza...), sans grande prétention. Tarifs corrects, mais avec une telle attente, nous aurions imaginé avoir au moins des excuses ou une réduction.

Estábamos caminando por la sección amurallada buscando un lugar para cenar y elegimos el Lyric Bar & Grill. Había una selección razonable de comida en el menú a precios muy razonables. El servicio fue amable y la cerveza estaba fría. Era demasiado pronto para que se ofreciera música, pero estoy seguro de que, cuando sea más tarde, sería un buen momento para pasar por un jarro o dos.

Alojarse en el Maldron almorzamos aquí y la comida era buena. Buena selección disponible y la comida estaba bien preparada y el camarero fue amable y ordenó una buena silla para mí esa noche para mí ver a mi equipo Spurs venció a Rochdale 6 - 1, entrar!

Este es nuestro último favorito firme al pensar en ir a por un buen filete, que sabemos definitivamente que tendremos una mesa en. ¿Por qué? Causa durante la mayor parte de los meses de invierno, está vacía.

Encontramos este bar mientras intentamos encontrar un lugar para comer. Hubo un cantante que nos atrajo al bar. La comida era estilo pub normal pero muy agradable y barata. Las mesas están un poco desordenadas, pero el personal explicó que 30 gallinas acababan de irse. En unos minutos todo fue arreglado. Tenía un ambiente agradable en el bar, buena música, comida y entorno.

Visité Derry con mi familia de 6 personas en una gira súper rápida, solo para ver el área de pantano de la ciudad. Antes de continuar nuestro viaje a Belfast, decidimos cenar. Subimos la colina a través de las murallas de la ciudad, y el Lyric Bar and Grill fue el primer lugar en el que nos encontramos. Era parte del Maldron Hotel, que supuse que garantizaría una buena calidad. Estaba equivocado. En las primeras impresiones, el lugar parece limpio al menos. Después de ayudarnos con los menús, intentamos sin éxito obtener la atención de un camarero / barman. El bar estaba casi vacío, por lo que no había motivo para la falta de servicio. Después de varios intentos, le pedimos a uno de ellos que viniera a tomar nuestro pedido. El camarero era amable pero no estaba seguro de las preguntas que tenía sobre el menú. Nuestra comida llegó en un tiempo aceptable, pero eso fue todo lo aceptable a partir de ese momento. Pedí un raro sándwich de carne. El bistec estaba bien hecho. Sabía a aceite sucio en una sartén sucia. No pude comer la Chiabbatta que me sirvieron porque este aceite sucio estaba empapado. Todos nuestros platos fueron de la misma calidad.

Just next to my hotel and great beer service and all thats good about Derry.

Having failed to be offered a table for dinner in the Maldron's main restaurant, we decided that the only alternative was the hotel's 'Lyric' bar which luckily seemed not to be very busy. When we tried to place an order for food, however, we were told that the kitchen was too busy and they couldn't take any orders for 30 minutes. By now we were getting a little desperate - it was Sunday and likely to be 9pm before we could even place an order (the time we had been told the kitchen closed). Nevertheless, when the meal did arrive it was very good and at reasonable cost.

Food fantastic, cleared our plates BUT service atrocious. The reason being, not enough staff on duty. Got dinner, no cutlery. Waited for service for main course and had to go and ask for someone to come and take our order for dessert. Such a Shame as food is so nice. Put more staff on for busier periods

Coming here you begin to see how Derry have influenced the music scene over the years. Lovely little place. Well priced food. Basic menu. Although a wait for food we were content to look at the many pictures on the walls and learn more about Derry's musical history.

Collegato al Maldron Hotel, posto tranquillo, si può mangiare senza il solito chiasso da pub (e qualche volta è proprio necessario!). Servizio efficiente, personale cordiale, discreti piatti anche se la varietà non è tanta.

Estaba en su recinto hoy primera vez pedimos comida para 2 en 12. 10 preguntaron 12. 40 cuando sería su comida llegar dijeron mientras casi listos 3 chicas que esperamos 50 minutos para la comida había dejado como demasiado larga la espera. 12. 50 dejamos...

La comida aquí es excelente y si quieres un lugar donde comer, incluso si te quedas en el Maldron Hotel, entonces este lugar no te decepcionará.

Maldron hotellin yhteydessä oleva "Bar&Grill" joskin tuo grill on tässä tapauksessa vahvan liioitteleva. Kohtuullinen olutvalikoima ja muut perusjuomat kohtuullisesti edustettuna. Perus pub-murkinaa, joka ei erotu hyvässä eikä pahassa.

Not much atmosphere, decent enough for a quick pint before we headed on out elsewhere. Seems to be clean and staff were nice.

Bern here a number of times whilst visiting family, good atmosphere, not rowdy like many of the other bars about. Topic selection of drink and cocktails. Live music most Friday and Saturday nights. Lose a star for food quality. For menu limited now and Steaks have gone down in quality since last year, very grissly and fatty, but other all nice bar

Had dinner here prior to theatre visit. The rib eye steaks were just the right size for a pre theatre meal but the taste was divine; one was well done one medium well and both were cooked to perfection. The Maguerita Pizza again was just perfect, proper Maguerita no additional (unnecessary add ons). Service excellent.

Due to an overbooking issue, we were offered a complimentary lunch at the Lyric which is part of the Maldron (formerly Tower) Hotel. The seafood chowder was delicious, as were the fish and chips. The chicken goujons made me ignore my resolve to not eat deep-fat fried foods...they were yummy!!!! Harp on tap rounded out the excellent lunch. And, it would have still been tasty if we were paying for it! I'll be back next trip to Derry.

Siamo stati per cena con amici,il locale è carino, il personale affabile e veloce.La cucina è molto buona e curata, niente da eccepire, neanche sul prezzo perfettamente allineato.Da provare

Great bars right next to hotel,great for drink before you head out or a night cap before you head to bed,live music and good food

Definitely average meal. Waited 40 minutes for mains, rib eye steak was a tasteless slab of overcooked meatSalad 'garnish' with fish and chips looked like it had been sitting on the plate for a week.Chips were ok.Not worth £38 for 2 mains, a kids main and 3 soft drinks.

We had a jolly good time here; it's not too loud and many of the patrons were enjoying themselves. The barman was helpful and attentive and we gave him a nice tip. I'd pop in for another pint, but I would pass on the Maldron.

On Sunday night, the last night of 2016 Jazz Festival I was very disappointed to learn you had run out of all nibbles, I.e. Bacon fries, crisps, nuts etc. I always like a snack with my white wine and I thought you could have considered factoring in the large Jazz Festival crowds and ordered in a couple of extra cartons? Just a thought.

The bar is lacking atmosphere and charm but the barfood was a lot better than I expected. Maybe it was because it was late and I was hungry but I don't think it was only that. The burger was really tasty and the chips were great too!

Called here for a quiet drink on a Sunday night and got a quiet one .... The bar has no atmosphere what so ever and looked dated and dirty and does not seem to fit in with the hotel reception at all ...

Had lunch here on July 4, 2013. Wife had Beer Battered Fish & Chips With Mushy Peas. I had Steak & Guinness Pie in a Rich Guinness Sauce and Puff Pastry with an Irish Coffee. We shared a Sticky Toffee Pudding With Caramel sauce. Food was delicious. Nice atmosphere. Friendly servers. Lunch came to $50 US.

Dad and I were staying at the Maldron Hotel so it was great to have this cosy, friendly bar to spend some time in later in the evenings. The walls are covered with photos and write-ups of local entertainers including Joseph Locke, Dana, the Undertones and the late great Gerry Anderson.

Attached to the Maldron hotel, and provides a more informal to the main hotel restaurant. One night there was an excellent guitarist and duo singers playing. Very enjoyable.

My wife and I are staying at the Maldron Hotel (reviewed separately) and went in for a quick, light dinner. What a mistake! Service was adequate, ordered a glass of Bud on tap and is was too warm for my liking. We ordered sandwiches. Tuna for the wife and egg salad for myself. The tuna was good. The egg salad had an excessive amount of mayo in it. They both came with corn chips which were stale. Salad with a terrible tasting dressing on it and disgusting cole slaw that was overly salty with too much mayo. Never again.

This bar & grill is actually in the Maldron Hotel (formerly Tower Hotel). This is a nice spot to drop in after work, bring a date, or otherwise have a drink or a bite to eat. The atmosphere is quite pleasant. Live music is available nightly. Music genre is mostly traditional and older favorites. Good choices not to offend anyone. I enjoyed both the pub and the music.

This is the worst food I've had in the four weeks I've been traveling in Scotland and Ireland! I ordered a bowl of fish chowder and bruschetta. The chowder was nice and creamy but the fish consisted primarily of fake crab. I think there was a small mussel or two and possibly some bits of baby octopus. How hard is it to have access to good quality fresh fish around here?! Based on many other restaurants we've eaten at over the last 4 weeks, it's pretty easy! The bruschetta, or I should say what they call bruschetta, was abysmal!! Sliced, unripe tomatoes, sprinkled with dried basil on French bread, layered alternately with slices of mozzarella and toasted. It was gross and tasteless! Hubby's chicken wrap was less than mediocre as well. Whoever they have making decisions about cooking items such as these must have come out of the McDonald's school of cooking and should be relegated to washing dishes because they know nothing about cooking real food!! There is no way in heck I would ever eat here again. The ambiance is nice and service good, but without good food, that doesn't mean much.

VERY professional, friendly and efficient waitstaff meant that even though we were very, very close to closing time we were still able to order and receive any dish on the menu. We selected and thoroughly enjoyed our delicious fish and chips meals. The quality of hospitality was excellent and the great in-house folk singer made for a fabulous atmosphere and vibe. Topped off a brilliant evening in Derry. Will most definitely recommend to others!

Went here for lunch today after receiving 20 percent off voucher . place was empty. Ordered two burgers after an incredibly long wait our meals arrived. The meat tasted off and cold. The chicken was hard in places and after a few attempts we deemed the food inedible. The bill came to £16 even with the 20% off. So expensive for such a terrible experience. Will not be back.

Abbiamo pranzato in questo pub in ha mattinata piovosa e fredda. Accoglienza super con molte attenzioni da parte del personale che ha cercato di esaudire tutti le nostre richieste per il cibo (senza burro, senza formaggio, senza questo e cotto così). Sempre gentili e con il sorriso sulle labbra. Cibo eccezionale soprattutto il pie di Guiness veramente da ricordare. La cucina infatti è quella del ristorante dell'hotel adiacente. Ottimo tutto e anche il conto senza sorprese. Il locale lo consiglio è veramente molto carino. La sera fanno musica ed è tutto arredato a tema con foto vintage

Very conveniently located adjacent to our hotel with trad music each evening. The entertainers changed nightly to provide a variety of music.

The bar is adjacent to the Maldron Hotel, so it is very convenient for hotel guests. They have live traditional Irish music every night starting at 8 PM. We really enjoyed the music, and the servers do not bother you to get you to order more drinks. I don't know about the food, but the music is very enjoyable. We really liked it. There were only two guys, one singing and one playing a guitar, but they did a great job.

This bar is part of the Maldron Hotel on Butcher Street [it was the Tower Hotel] and it has it's own entrance from the street. Over the years I'd been in it, but not since it's called the Lyric Bar. It has the reputation of a good music venue, so it was time to suss it out. As I was in Derry on Friday night last I called in. The first thing that hit me was the heat. It was a beautiful evening but it was oppressive inside. Surely the hotel has air con? Anyhow, two youngish lads were providing the music, and although they were a bit loud, they weren't bad. The crowd were typical hotel people, just calling in for a drink or two before they headed off to another venue. Staff were ok and the pint was good. Toilets are located in the hotel, so you have to leave the bar and go past reception. They have wi-fi, but you need to get the code at reception.

We used the bar twice during our stay at the Maldron Hotel this past weekend for food and drinks. It's a little expensive for bar food and some items are better than others. The first day I had a Panini but I have to say I've had better in a coffee shop for half the cost. The 2nd time we had the burgers and the beef burger is absolutely delicious would highly recommend. The staff are very helpful and friendly. There was live music in the bar on one night which seemed to draw quite a crowd (traditional Irish music). On another night there was a lively hen party who provided their own entertainment which wasn't suitable for children or indeed some adults but I guess you have to expect these sorts of things in a city centre bar.

Stayed here earlier in the year with my partner, upon arrival the receptionist was lovely, wish I could remember her name. Very pleasant & welcoming. When we had got checked in we asked about dining and she recommended we try the hotel bar. We went to the room & got ourselves ready then headed to the bar around 7pm, we ordered drinks & asked for bar menus. The unhappy looking barman returned with the drinks and no menus. After reminding him he replied that they were not serving food after 7 - bearing in mind it was maybe 7.05 - It is advertised til 9pm but maybe it was different this particular day which would not have been a problem although as we sat & had our drinks (which we wouldn't have bothered getting if we knew we weren't getting food) we watched 3 other tables all receive their food, the kitchen was obviously still cooking. Maybe his shift was over or he maybe had somewhere to be that night but either way we still felt unwanted and disappointed and will not return. Only reason I gave a rating of 3 was the lovely receptionist, thank you.

Myself and my partner came here last night as we were staying in the adjoining hotel. We each had 2 courses. The starters were quite nice, prawn cocktail and potatois wedges. I had the chicken goujons and mash for my main, and my partner had pepperoni pizza. I had no complaints with mine, but my partner found her pizza almost inedible as the base was so thick. This was mentioned to the staff member but nothing was fed back from the kitchen, and she left hungry.Don't think we will be back in a hurry.

I have been here for lunch on various occasions over the last few months and through the Festive Period of 2014/2015. Always top notch and there is a lovely atmosphere in the bar and grill area. Great Place and if I was to make a recommendation for a light lunch I would highly recommend the Seafood Chowder which contains prawns, salmon, squid, mussels in a thick creamy base. If you fancy something a bit more filling then add chips! They are GREAT! See you again soon!

The Lyric is part of a hotel that I stayed at in Derry. The bar's menu is limited and the bands (when they have them) are too loud for conversation, but the drinks are pretty good. If you're looking for a pause and some refreshment, you will find it at Lyric.

Stoped in here saturday after shopping, bar was very quiet, that should have told me not to order food. We ordered a jacket potato with beans and salad, soup, burger and childrens meal. What a joke soup didn't arrive as a starter all food was ready at the same time. Potato and beans were cold and the salad consisted of nothing more than lettuce. soup was warm with not much flavour. Had I served this at home my kids would not have accepted it. No sign then of the burger that had been ordered and when I went to pay the barman asked did I want the burger. Would hate to see what would have been served had the bar been busy there were only about 4 other people in the bar. Please train your staff to look after the customers because I will not be back.

We arrived to the newly renamed Tower Hotel. Now the Maldron. A welcome Champagne reception awaited us. It was a group Christmas night out. There was no back ground music at the reception. No atmosphere. In the room we entered, we were seated. Service was quite slow. The set menu choice was poor. But the food we got was piping hot and good size portions. The staff were friendly but not particularly creating a good time for the guests.Entertainment was a disco. Or should I say supposed to be a disco. The equipment failed 6 times. The dj need a energiser pill to liven him up.All in all. I would be inclined to go back. But if there was another option, I would try it first

Lovely bar area, super cocktails reasonably priced. certainly will return. loved all the photos on the wall and the young gentleman who served us was delightful.

Food and presentation of food was excellent. Was my first time here and I will definitely be back. Compliments to the chefs. Service was a tad slow considering we're were the only table but it was well worth the wait.

we stayed at the tower hotel, which is right next door. The drinks where reasonably priced the atmosphere is awesome, and the music was fantastic - traditional Irish music - that night half of our tour enjoyed the evening

Inexperienced waiter left alone, very slow (this was at 2.00pm on a Sunday so possibly not normally a busy time), tables not cleared. The waiter didn't know the panini came with chips, so we ended up with 3 portions of chips for 2 people. When we asked him to take away the extra poprtion he said he couldn't because he had already put them on the bill. The manager did sort it out and we weren't charged for them

I was out with my father yesterday, and decided to pop into The Lyric with him as we could hear some Traditional music as we passed.I went to the bar and ordered and paid for (£8.50) a G&T and a Guinness. I then returned to the bar and ordered 2 portions of chips and asked if I could have some cheese on them. The barman then said that's £3.90, I'll add them to your bill, I asked what bill, and he said you haven't paid for your drinks! He then spent 5 mins going through a pile of note paper he had in his hand, at one point I even turned to some tourists who were sitting at the bar and asked them if they seen me pay, they confirmed that I had. He then stood at the till for another 5-10 minutes trying to work the thing, then got on the phone. Eventually he came back to me saying it would be £6 for the 2 cheesy chips, that this point I'd had enough, and took the £5 back from him, then he leaned across the bar and said "Thanks very much for embarrassing me on my 1st night"!! - I had been trying to give him every break possible bearing in mind he pretty much argued with me saying I hadn't paid when I had! At this stage I went to the edge of the bar and asked to speak to the Manager, while waiting the chips arrived, but I explained to the girl who brought them that I didn't pay for them and had cancelled the order, when I spoke to her she was extremely defensive, and asked me to step into the hotel area as she claimed I was raising my voice! (bear in mind there was loud music playing!) - I stated that I wasn't but even if I was I had every right to be irate after what had just happened, I also pointed out that if it was the barmans first night he should have been "shadowed" she then said he was a very experienced barman and didn't need help! At this stage I returned to my father (about 15 mins after I'd gone to the bar!).The manageress then came over and asked if we wanted a complimentary drink, I said no thanks, it was too little too late!

Nice bar with good beers and great atmosphere. A bit stuffy at times - sort out the air conditioning !

Called in here a few times. Nice atmosphere and loadsa wall local themed photographic decor.Great quality pints.Only down side on our recent visit was the wife's cocktail was really poor. Boring tumbler glass, not mixed/shaken, yawn!!Great bar for the rugby when it starts.

Not your traditional Irish Pub, but a great place to hear some music. The interior is more contemporary. Good drinks. We had a good time the evening we were there. The music was very good, but a little loud.

Bar service is not up to the same service standard provided by the Adjoining hotel staff. Bartender unfamiliar with common American mixed drinks.

This was a nice wee bar where we went for a drink after our dinner in the Tower Hotel restaurant. Lots of photographs on the walls.There was a bit of music as well on the Fri night which was quite good.

The waiters were spectacular and the atmosphere delightful. Great little piece of history to sit back and unwind!

Heard Lyric did live music so popped in for a drink. It was dead. 4 other people in the bar and absolutely no atmosphere. No live music or even the promise of any. The music from the stereo was so loud it made chatting difficult. Plenty of photos to stare at instead as tried to finish drink to leave onto somewhere with a bit more of an atmosphere. Nothing remarable...would avoid going back

We went to the bar both nite of our stay in the hotel, birthday coctails were amazing, and the artists both nites just set the scene perefectly, real good music, only downside was the music stopping, relativley early in the evening, which I suspect was through respect for clientelle staying in the hotel, and to although for non customers to be ushered of the premises before closing time, hower if your staying in the hotel your quite welome to stay on a little while.

Convenient as it was our hotel lobby bar, it was a quiet stop to end the evening and enjoy a pint (or two) before bed.
