| Expensive bar attached to the [Eastgate Hotel], used to be called 'Cafe Boheme' - bar staff are friendly and know how to make a good range of drinks. Place is open until 2am - entrance after normal pub hours was £3. A few comfy sofas and plenty of tables - seems to draw a fair number of students (probably due to locale), but no big noisy crowds the few times I've been there... Smoking is allowed all through the bar. |

Smoking is allowed all through the bar. |

On Wednesday nights they do speed-dating ( www.speeddater.co.uk ), but if you're looking for lurve, try turning up at 9:30pm when it's officially ended and all the singles are still hanging around in the bar - you don't have to pay, and "So how many people did you tick?" is a great opener...
If you're a smoker, beware the cigarette machine which likes to pretend it's been turned off - keep pumping your coins through it and hitting buttons and finally it wakes up.
