About This Pub
Ah, Bar 1 – it's one of those places that really hits the spot for a proper pub experience down by the sea. From what I've gathered from the buzz around it, the team behind the bar are just lovely, always up for a chat and making sure your drinks and food come out lightning fast. Folks love the variety on offer, whether it's sinking a few pints or tucking into some hearty meals like those burgers or roasts that leave you stuffed and satisfied. It's got that warm, welcoming atmosphere that's ideal for a Friday night catch-up or even a singalong with karaoke – sounds like a right laugh! On the flip side, though, there've been a few tales of dodgy behaviour from some of the regulars, which is a shame and might make you think twice about going alone or keeping an eye out. Overall, it's a solid choice if you're in the area, with its moderate prices and high marks for food and service, but just remember to stay savvy and enjoy the good bits while being mindful of the not-so-great ones.

Popped in for a few pints on a Friday night catching up with friends, very busy and had Karaoke on too!! Brilliant!!
Great staff, good variety of drinks, very friendly and quick service.
Had a great night, Cheers Bar1
Had a mixed gammon and beef roast, was lovely food and very friendly staff, only downfall was what seemed to be a regular drinker in the pub that approached myself making inappropriate comments. My partner pointed out that he’d sniffed my neck whilst I was ordering food at the bar. We Enjoyed our food but was easily distracted and made to feel uncomfortable as we noticed he’d done the same to other women in the pub.
Really bright bar, lovely bar maid who was helpful and the food was brilliant and such a good helping of it. Really struggled to finish it but it’s well worth a trip for a roast dinner
Popped in for dinner after work. First time in the area and a very welcome team at the bar took our drink order then our food order. Makes a huge impact to have a nice welcome and amazing service when coming into somewhere new.
Food was superb. The burgers were perfect. No frills or over the top selection of toppings. And the BBQ beef bites, delicious, fell to bits as you cut and bit into them.
Good portion sizes for the price. If and when I come back to the area, I will be back for some more food and amazing service.
Great food, attentive staff, good portions. It was our first visit to Bar 1 and staff were very kind and welcoming. Lots of choice of drinks and food. We ordered B1 Burger and Barbecue wings. Delicious food at a reasonable price.
