text: Bierex is a bit of a Newington institution and a regular hang out joint for loads of locals who are keen for the chilled out laid back atmosphere and the no frills banter and straight to the drinking attitude There is a good bit of seating available here with tables for big groups that are up for some pub time The food menu has all the standard pub fare on offer and a good burger from here does not go amiss after a night outnnI like the fact that Newington has its own little world of night life going on away from the city centre and stopping off here is well worthwhile if you are doing a bit of a get to know Newington bar crawl I do not find Bierex the most massively inspiring bar to look at and I find its vibe a bit hard to identify as it is neither cosy pub nor ultra stylish bar but it is probably somewhere safe and perfectly decent in between
