Bar and Beyond West Street.

funny enough varsity started reducing their opening hours till eventually was 0!

 

It is slightly odd when you look at what operates successfully within 50 yards (in some cases 10 yards!)

 

Cavendish, Revolution, The Hop, The Forum, Common Room all been around for years and operate well, you would assume from longevity.

 

It must be a marketing/brand issue because what they offer is not that different when it comes down to it. Be interesting to see how much longer it lasts. Only a few months left of Student money, May to September is the cities lull in terms of midweek student trade.

Bar and Beyond has potential but I think the style of operation needs some attention.

 

The upstairs nightclub is fine - free entry before midnight, busy and lively atmosphere, dance music, quick bar service and appropriate drinks selection with some offers.

 

Downstairs in my mind should be a completely different atmosphere - maybe a bit more traditional and relaxed - with good beer, wine etc, good food and all day opening.

 

In actual fact they seem to focus more on selling pre-club packages with booths and big sharing bottles of booze.
