    4 ladies 50+ refused entry because we didn’t have ID - you’re absolutely having a laugh aren’t you? All professional ladies unbelievable. Our money just not good enough or are we too old?!?!

    We organised a cocktail masterclass, Erin was our host and Matt took the booking. From start to finish it was fantastic. The venue was so lovely, the food was delicious and we had the best time. Nothing was too much for Matt or Erin. We will certainly be back!

    Terrible experience with O bar. I contacted to make a booking for a cocktail masterclass and was advised there was space and I’d be contacted via phone to finalise the booking, I remained in touch over email whilst I waited for the call. When I finally received it I was advised that in the meantime a second booking had been taken and ours couldn’t be accommodated. A huge let down and completely ruined the plans for my friends hen do at late notice. The worst part is how rude they were about it, I said I was disappointed and the Polish (?) lady who contacted slammed the phone down on me. Never book with O bar!

    Nice bar located in a prime location on Birmingham's Broad St. Cocktails are great and the DJ played a decent variety of tunes to get people moving. Bar and door staff need to smile more though. They all seemed angry that night. Ha!

    Lovely place but too pricey for me. 1 G n T and pi t of Guinness almost £16. Really in Liverpool come on. My partner got spanked on this round. I would expect a bottle of Gin for that price.

    Walked into the pub and was hit by a awful smell so did not stay it smelt dirty and sweaty and a very smokey atmosphere so it didn't appeal to buy a drink

    The new lady manager is an absolute waste of space. She misuses her authority and does not deserve to work here. I have been visiting here regularly and always spend big but never again. She needs to go!

    SCAM Paid entry and then we paid for 4 drinks but then said we never paid for them. Avoid at all costs if you want to enjoy your night!

    It's a fair bar with fair music. Not overcrowded which is good to dance . It's not the best place in Birmingham, but it's a fair one

    I went to O Bar for Halloween weekend with my friends and we had a time😊. O bar was the first bar on Broad Street on the corner. We were offered free entry and a free shot which wasn't too shabby. There was a good selection of drinks and the facilities (toilets etc) were kept in good condition. There was a female DJ who was amazing, she played a good selection of songs which kept me dancing the whole night. My friend had come down from London and in all honesty I intended on giving her a bar hop experience along Broad Street but the vibe was so sweet that we never left. I Would recommend visiting, it wasn't my first time here and it won't be my last😁

    I have never experienced such rudeness and naievity. Children with an obvious stature complex employmed as door staff. Awful experience. I was called a Cxxt when I left ths hovvle as I hadn't stayed and bought drinks. This was at ,5pm. Awful place. Cha cha love

    Yea it's ok , very very small and the lack of space can be an issue but the vibes are always good in there and the bar seems to flow quickly

  • 4/5 Chibuike J. 1 year ago on Google
    The dj played a mix of alot genre, the staff are great, and the security present made me feel relaxed. The energy is electrifying.

  • 4/5 Paul B. 1 year ago on Google
    Great atmosphere with a live DJ, good selection of drinks, gets very busy due to being one of the better bars on Broad Street.

    If you want to fully experience Birmingham Central nightlife you have to come here no questions asked, easily the best bar for music, staff on point everything bless , only fault is the venue is a bit on the small side apart from that it's basically like London Central sides. 😀 👍🏾 would definitely come again

  • 5/5 DJ T. 1 year ago on Google
    Excellent venue to go out to, Staff (inc) Door Staff are very professional in their positions. Welcoming & friendly which makes the world of difference on your night out. Really cool vibe in the place. Will definitely go again. There's a DJ apparently playing but with all those modern decks it's difficult to tell. In my day it was only vinyl music, anyway we had a good night so I highly recommend you trying this place out... thank you to the Management...

    Nice little Bar, got a little busy on the dance floor but we had a good time. Done some promotional offers on drinks

  • 5/5 Toxic-Panda -. 2 years ago on Google
    Great bar and selection of music played. Good price on drinks. Quiet early on but gets busy later creating a great atmosphere

  • 1/5 Jonathan G. 1 year ago on Google
    Handed a card saying drinks were cheap till 11, bar tender refuses to honour card from man at door charging extra at 10. Then the drink is definitely water down and doesn't taste like a double.

    Drinks were nice. Music slightly on the loud side. Service wasn’t great - we had to go to the bar to get the waiter’s attention. Only stayed for one

    But delayed but after talking to other people and other bouncers about my experience made me realise how disrespectful the bouncer working on the night of 9th July was. I asked to go to the toilet and was refused due to the bouncer saying I was ‘intoxicated’. I was not I just needed to go to the toilet as I’m was at that time in the month. I was refused by a bouncer which annoyed me so I questioned this trying to tell him I wasn’t. I walked off angry and confused as to why I was turned away. He then proceeded to call me fat which my brother and boyfriend heard him say. This was unprofessional. I usually love coming here and would be my go to bar on broad street but after this encounter will never return. Vile bouncers

    Went on a Sunday and it exceeded my expectations. The decor and ambiance was nice. The music was excellent!!! I danced all night until the club closed haha!! Thoroughly enjoyed my night. The drinks and shots were good too. Props to the dj he did that!! I will definitely be going back when I'm in Birmingham again!
