Bar161 hosted our party and we couldn’t have asked for more. The staff were AMAZING (especially young lady on bar). Perfect size for 60 guests, drinks well priced. We didn’t have food but now serving burgers if that’s what you’re after. Good communication via email. Everyone was helpful and friendly. Also they were happy for us to bring crisps and cake into venue, which was a bonus too. A huge thank you!!! You have a lovely little bar and we now have very fond memories there :)
