A really nice bar, comfortable, not loud, bustling but personal. The team were really great and looked after us well. The drinks on offer will suit all tastes and the bar menu was good.

Ordered a meal in the lounge bar. Pasta was fine. Chicken burger overcooked & almost impossible to cut with knife. Returned it to kitchen & never got it back. Queried with waiter who took it back to kitchen & was told by him that we would have to query with hotel. Too much time had past & my partner had finished his meal & plate had been removed so past the point of feeling hungry. Awful food on one part & service all for £50! They did in the end refund for the unedible burger.

En general, el lugar es bueno para relajarse y disfrutar de su comida y bebida, pero el único inconveniente es el tiempo que toma tomar su pedido y servirlo.

Waited ages as was unstaffed most of the time. Over priced and not a comfortable place to sit. Save yourself and grab a corona from a supermarket and sit by the lake

My friends and I visited the bar at the Hilton Metropole while attending an event at the NEC. We seemed to end most of our nights there sharing a drink after the event, and on a couple of occasions we ordered food as well. The bar is very comfortable and, as expected from the Hilton brand, the staff were excellent. The food is a little on the expensive side, but the quality and standards are high. Over our visits, we ordered sandwiches one night and from the hot food menu another. Especially noteworthy was the duck salad, which was part of the specials menu. It was plentiful, delicious and the duck was cooked perfectly! My friend ordered the sausages, mash and Yorkshire pudding, which also looked very good! The food and atmosphere made this the perfect place to socialise after hours!

Had a couple of meetings here so thought the bar would be a good place to relax before and after. The area is cold, I did ask for someone to turn up the heating - it didn't happen. I ordered tea and toast and was surprised as to how expensive to was. Bring your big wallet. The hotel seems to used for conferences and air crews stopovers as well as business users so its busy. Hand for the airport and the NEC. Its OK, but I'd use a different hotel in the future.

Not the cheapest way of hydriating yourself but it was nice to look out onto the lake in the sun! The wooden seating wasn't entirley practical either. Inside the bar is very elegant and the staff were very attentive. Perhaps a little too attentive, watch out for the service charge! it is cheaper to go up to the bar yourself.

Not the place to be if you have a tight budget! The white wine (Sauvignon Blanc) was good, but £14 a glass is scandalous. Will look elsewhere in future!!

I had the unfortunate experience of being at this Hotel for a conference and ending up at this Lounge two nights. The first night I ordered food and it took over 45 minutes to get my food, it was a simple steak sandwich. It came out cold and obviously had sat in the kitchen for a long while before it was brought to me. No apology for the slow service, or followup on the food either. Service wasn't a priority that night or the next night. The hotel must realize that it has a captive audience and that it doesn't have to have a service or food quality component to its lounge offerings. Too bad. The next night, I had a burger and much better managed my expectations, it only took 35 minutes for this to come out, and I ordered directly from the bar so I didn't have to be disappointed by an inept server. I even prepaid at the bar. If you go there manage your expectations on service and food quality and timing. I cannot recommend, regretfully.

Ordered food from the bar menu, which has a good selection of dishes. Food was really good (the chicken) and service was fast. Waiting staff are reall friendly and helpful.

Not the cheapest of local bars, but in line with other nearby hotels. A soft drink is around £3, and a G&T (a "botanical" gin - single, with slim line tonic) was just under £9. They do have a good range of beers/lagers and spirits...

Being situated within the Hilton Hotel, expect to pay top rates for drinks. £5.50+ per pint. Your paying for the locality to the NEC. You may wish to consider visiting the JD Weatherspoon's situated with the NEC as an alternative.

Two colleagues and I had a late lunch at the Lounge Bar on Friday and what a great atmosphere the place has. Loads of comfortable lounge seats or smaller round tables for more formal eating. I had the fish n chips which was most delicious...

We had a few drinks and a meal, we were served by friendly and professional staff. Nice area to relax and "watch the world go by" and the piano man was an extra touch. Will be returning soon.

I prefer to eat in the hotelbar since there is a better vibe than in the restaurant. There are many different seat possibilities too.

They are good but very busy. They sell good food and drink. Service is good but can be improved. I wish there was more communication between staff and customer.
