Bar + Block

Exceptional Service and Delicious Steaks!

Stepping into Bar + Block, you might initially dismiss it as another hotel-linked bistro. Yet beneath its casual Premier Inn facade lies a warm and pleasantly surprising dining experience, well-anchored by its diligent staff. Servers like George and Melvin persistently emerge in diners' commendations, tirelessly ensuring patrons feel attended to — an admirable feat considering the bustling nature of the space. This friendly and accommodating drive permeates through individuals like Elton, who not only promptly serves guests but does so with a welcoming presence that imprints on customers, encouraging return visits.

The menu, with its wide selection of steak cuts and cocktails, promises a pleasing culinary journey, evidenced by rave mentions of perfectly prepared Chateaubriand and short rib delights. Beyond the splendid entrees, you'll find a robust drinks list, including potent cocktails you can savor during happy hour's enticing two-for-one deal. The children's menu is thoughtfully curated, providing little gourmets with steak and fries options more often reserved for those ordering à la carte. The venue, though not overwhelmingly plush, maintains a cozy vibe enhanced by its service team’s outright focus, making any occasion feel appropriately special. Nevertheless, transparency in operating hours and consistency about drab desserts would bolster its comfortable dining narrative into one of exceptional caliber. — Nigel Gourmet
