Alexander Bar attracts a mixed crowd of interesting locals young and old as well as a smattering of tourists from the neighbouring hotels. The bar is filled with old-world charm and is engineered to get people talking. The functioning antique rotary dial telephone system encourages you to chat to people all over the bar. And you can also dial 9 to ring the bartender. The menu is fairly priced and there’s something to eat and drink whether you’re on a student budget or feel like splashing out. We favour craft beers and local wines from smaller producers and we have a classic range of well-made cocktails using fresh, high quality ingredients. The background music ranges from jazz and world music on quieter nights, to funky lounge, soul and jazzy disco on busy nights. The furnishings are warm and inviting.
