In a world where bars are becoming fashion icons in themselves, the Bow Bar is a refreshingly olde worlde pub which will remind you of the ways drinking used to be. Most certainly 'no -frills' the Bow Bar is what I would call an 'Old Man' pub - dark wood, leather and whispering broken only by the sound of pints being pulled or water being added to one of the nearly 150 different types of whiskey for sale. That said, the customers are from a wide range - tourists who have stumbled in from the busy shopping areas outside, students who are nursing hangovers and those all important regulars. Despite being nervous when entering, me and my two friends (who were expecting stares and grumbles) left some hours later having been comfortable and relaxed in the Bow Bar.
