What Makes A Good Bar?
1. Is the location convenient? Depending on where you live, work or based for just that evening, you'll want a bar that's easy to get to and from - either on foot or by transportation. It may be that you're going out elsewhere later, like to the theatre or cinema, and require a bar that's located nearby. 2. Is it in a safe area? There's nothing worse than a bar in a dodgy area and it's often not easy to know if you don't know the area. Ask friends, colleagues or hotel staff if you want more details. 3. Who are you going with? If you're entertaining clients you're likely to want something quite different to where you'd go with your friends. Likewise if you're going out with your partner. Find out who the bar best caters for and let that help you in your decision. 4. Will you want food? Not all bars do food, so if you're peckish, do your homework before you get there. Equally, if you don't want to eat, are you happy being around people that are dining? 5. Is it expensive? Location will have a bearing, but nobody likes paying over the odds for drinks and food. Online local business directories often provide reviews, so read what previous patrons have to say about the price-list of the bar before you go. 6. Can you get served easily? I don't mean because of your age (if you're not old enough to drink, don't even bother trying, and if you look young, make sure you take ID). I mean easy access to the bar, plenty of staff and efficient service. There's nothing worse than wasting half your night waiting at the bar. 7. Is there plenty of room to sit down? Call me old, but after the age of 24, when I go to a bar, I like to sit down. Standing up is fine for some, but if you're in a group and want a table and seats, then it could be worth checking out their facilities beforehand. 8. What's the atmosphere like? Just because I like to sit down in a bar, doesn't mean I like a quiet bar. Atmosphere is great, whether you want a dance or chat to fellow bar goers. Make sure you like what they offer. 9. Do they offer the products you want? If you're an Archers and Lemonade drinker, make sure they stock it. You don't want to have to drink something you don't fancy all evening. 10. Are there other bars nearby? You may want to add a little variety to your night by visiting more than one bar. If so, do your homework on the area and make sure there's other bars within walking distance.
