Morado Bar & Dinner

Bar

😠 If you want to wait to take your order for more than 30 minutes, this is your place. After the second attempt to call for waiter, the hostess came. To leave aside the fact that we waited to take our order, we received our drinks after at least 20 minutes, even thought the place was not overcrowded.... People often mention view, service, drinks, great, waitress, nice, good, Morado,

Definitely not the best service, the location is super, but with this service I cannot see how morado continues to have customers.

    Oh how the mighty have fallen! My last review 4 years ago was 5 stars and this was one of the best places to be in Plovdiv, but I was shocked to return and see what a mess has this place become. Upon sitting at the bar (great view of the fontains) I noticed the horrible state the bar was. Chipped, dirty and unpleasant (picture attached). The waitress was polite and quick to serve and was the best thing from the whole experience. But that's about it. The chairs were falling appart (picture attached), the glasses we were served were not clean properly (streaks after dishwash use making them look dirty). There was no music coming from the bar (around 2pm) and a bit later the music was played on, but you could barely hear it. Gone were the young and vibrant customers, replaced by mostly people of old age and tourists like me who had no idea how bad this place had become. The surrounding was as gross as the bar and the chairs - dirty and old furniture, unpleasant (picture attached). I ordered a vegetarian burger and you could see from the picture that the presentation was dreadful (some 5 year old would have presented the food better). The burger tasted somewhat ok, however there were no seasoning and the fries were horrible! My family was served with chicken burger which again was not seasoned at all and was so simple, I could literally go to the shop and make it in few minutes time. But don't get me started with the dessert, you could see it from the picture, the bottom from the Lind cake was missing! This is the ideal center of the second biggest city in Bulgaria, the bar is placed in the best possible place next to the beautiful singing fountains but apart from service everything else was beyond a joke! I don't think it's necessary to say it, but will do nonetheless - there is no chance I will visit this place again.

    Food is really low quality, feels like they are using expired ingredients.. Service is really bad. They don't take responsibility for the problems in the food and drinks. Would not recommend.

    The food is very taste. It is a bit expensive but it is great value for the money, because of the portion sizes. It was nice and cool compared to other restaurants and the view is great

    Came here for a couple of drinks. Very quiet the night we were there. Barman always looked busy making cocktails. Was hard enough to get the attention of the staff to order and to get the bill. We felt a bit like intruders. On a positive note, they did make an effort to show it was Halloween with some nice decorations.

    Absolutely disappointed. Beautiful place with really bad food. Everything is prepared much, much earlier, probably somewhere else, no spices, low quality products, and instant ingredients... Like mushroom sauce. Risotto??? Common rice without the salt and spices... But prices like for a good quality dinners ... PLEASE AVOID THIS PLACE!! Very close you can find good street food with friendly service... But not here!!

    If you don't look like a Turk, then the staff won't approach you within 10 minutes, and you'll leave hungry

    Amazing place overlooking the fountain and this makes it perfect for sitting outside! They have a wide variety of food and drinks and are still able to maintain the quality! I had the fried calamari and was well made! The service was great too and I was welcomed with a smile! Definitely coming back!

    My visit to Morado Bar & Dinner in Plovdiv was a truly delightful experience. I started my meal with the Bulgarian clear chicken soup, which left a lasting impression. The portion was substantial, served hot, and exquisitely seasoned. It was a comforting and flavorsome choice, making for a light yet satisfying dinner. For my main course, I opted for the mixed bruschetta, a trio featuring mozzarella, prosciutto, and salmon. Each bruschetta had its unique and delightful twist, offering a diverse range of flavors. The mozzarella was creamy, the prosciutto added a savory punch, and the salmon provided a refreshing seafood twist. It left me thoroughly content. The ambience at Morado Bar & Dinner was enchanting, with a breathtaking view of the Singing Fountains Lake, which is the highlight of Tsar Simeon's Garden. The lounge bar's setting was truly wonderful, providing a picturesque backdrop for an exceptional dining experience. Morado Bar & Dinner not only impressed with its delectable food but also offered a scenic and serene musical atmosphere. It's a perfect choice for anyone looking to combine great cuisine with a stunning view in Plovdiv.

    Ordered lemonades and a cappuccino and the cup of the cappuccino was all dirty with old coffee stains! We let the server know and she made a grimace and just brought us a clean cup?! Didn’t even asked us to remake the order? Just brought a clean cup to pour the drink in it?! Like is that even real?? I was so disappointed because even the cappuccino was badly made! I do not recommend this place at all!

    The place was fantastic. Lately - not so much. The location is 5 stars, but the staff has become really slow, unmotivated and difficult to interact with. On top of that - no milk for my coffee...

    We arrived yesterday in Plodviv and this was the 1st bar we found. The place is modern and trendy, and it is the only one located on the dancing fountain border, so it has a fantastic view..... Unfortunately service for tourists who do not speak bulgarian is the WORST EVER!!! They scaped from you, maybe they think that tourists bite???? We were yesterday for the first time in order to get something to drink, as the weather was very hot. We asked for 2 vanilla milk shakes. The waitress brought them, and we asked her if she could give some information on where to buy the tickets for the bus to go to our hotel. She answered "I don't know" several times and scaped. We finished our drinks and waited for the bill for 30 minutes.... As the waitress dissapaired, I went by myself inside and asked if any of them speak english. Our waitress was no longer there. Another waitress was so kind to answer our question with some manual signs and a bit of English. Today was our last day at Plovdiv. So before returning to the bus station to return to Sophia, we decided to return to this bar restaurant for lunch because we loved the fountain view. Today is Saturday so there were more people than yesterday. We informed the receptionist we were 2 people, and they offered a table with only 2 chairs.... but we had our bags and coats with us... . Again, nobody there that undestood English. We requested for another chair or a sofa where we could pose our coats and bags. They pointed with their finger the floor. I asked again for another chair (or to seat inside, where it was empty and full of available places to seat), but this time, it was a snobbish not-ready-for-tourists lady (by the way she acted, she seems to be responsable for the other younger waitresses) in a pink flowered dress who shake shoulders like saying "I do no care", and scaped. I went inside again and try to find someone else who would be able to service, but without change. Luckly we found another fantastic restaurant in the middle of the park: "central park", where we were warmly welcomed, accomodated in a sofa where we were really confortable and did not need to leave bag and coat on the floor, we enjoyed a wonderful and delicious healthy lunch in a lovely ambience. And the waitress was friendly, helpful and quick. Why so much difference from one place to the other (less than 100 mts away)? Morado bar, does not represent bulgarian style, all people we met in Plodviv or Sophia were incredibly helpful with us, even not speaking english they did whatever to reach to understand each other, helpful, respectful, we have only the best words to describe bulgarians......except in Morado. I suggest the owner of the bar to consider that when hiring the employees, or ask the owner of Central Park how to do it. The only thing I could recommend in Morado is the fantastic mirror in the ladies bathroom to take pictures.

🫤 Yes, the restaurant looks good and has good atmosphere, but that’s all. We waited quite a while for the waiter to take our order, then probably around 15 more minutes for him to come and tell us that they ran out of the wine we wanted. Then it took them 1 hour to serve our dishes. He forgot to bring...

😐 For my personal taste I find the bred too thick and it does not taste good. French fries were very good but kind of over priced for Bulgaria with 6.90lv - not the best burger place but ok.
