slimsid2000 Posted November 22, 2007 Share Posted November 22, 2007 What are people's opinions of these two venues please? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nick2 Posted November 22, 2007 Share Posted November 22, 2007 Both are ok when they are not full of p***ed-up students. Cavendish is slightly better IMO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stormy Posted November 22, 2007 Share Posted November 22, 2007 Both are ok I guess, bit studenty for me tho. There are better places on West st, Lava lounge is good and Bia Hoi is worth a go, especially on fri/sat nights. Although Ive heard Lava cant play live (DJ) music no more because of their licence which might hurt it as it was a good pre-club bar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flightlevel Posted November 22, 2007 Share Posted November 22, 2007 Both are absolutely dire. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrsmills Posted November 22, 2007 Share Posted November 22, 2007 Even when I was a student here, after the first weeks they had lost the limited appeal they had, horrible places IMO, made no better by the fact that since the smoking ban they do actually have a strong smell of vomit! We were dragged in recently by some old friends from Uni...that was a night to forget, it made m think that if you could put all the things I don't like in one...this would be it, not to mention a rather unpleasant incident with a rather amourous gentleman at the bar, which was so brazen it was difficult to be offended by it. The requisite deep fried hangover breakfast/lunch at The Cavendish is not to be sniffed at! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
casslou Posted November 23, 2007 Share Posted November 23, 2007 too many students and varsity is way too overcrowded on fri/sat nights, getting served in there is a nightmare... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SpiderPete Posted November 23, 2007 Share Posted November 23, 2007 too many students and varsity is way too overcrowded on fri/sat nights, getting served in there is a nightmare... Getting served in any pub on Fri/Sat on West Street is a nightmare. I prefer Varisty more, only for the beer garden at the back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Meaks Posted November 23, 2007 Share Posted November 23, 2007 Both are absolutely dire. FACT. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scottf Posted November 23, 2007 Share Posted November 23, 2007 they serve a purpose for west street, the food isn't too bad for the prices and when the footie is on you don't stand there for that long to get served. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
