Had such a fun evening playing some games and then attending the quiz night! Great variety with games for several different group sizes. Really knowledgeable staff who offer to teach you games if you need! Also really friendly and no judge if you ask stupid questions/don’t know answers to the quiz😂 definitely recommend and looking forward to going back again!

Great venue, very friendly staff. Nice laid back atmosphere, perfect venue for a function/Birthday party etc. Would highly recommend

I’m standing in this bar. No one is here to serve me. I have even called the home phone. 10 mins later someone come down to serve me and didn’t apologize or ask how long I waited for. My point is I could of gone around and helped myself, I understand you maybe understaffed but keep your bar safe.

Was in last night, Im new to the area and found this hidden gem. Great cocktails, staff were very friendly and made me feel right at home. Cool music and overall vibe! Will be back, thanks guys:)

Had my birthday event here and Pause (+manager Matt and bartender Emma) were so accomodating to me. They let me bring my own lights, cakes and balloons, and event pre-made drinks for my friends and I without us even asking. We had the best night and it all ran so smoothly thanks to the lovely staff and incredible space. Would highly recommend to anyone coming to Balaclava to check these guys out :)

Amazing place. Always have the best fun in there, the bartenders and staff are incredibly nice and helpful! Fully recommended to go down for a drink or two

Great vibes, great wine! Love the live music on Sunday 👌

Great bar with amazing staff who go above and beyond. Booked a function and everything was just so smooth and easy to coordinate which made it possible to just relax, have a few drinks and party the night away. Matt and his team are fantastic!! Cant recommend this place highly enough.

Very surprised to see how many positive reviews this place has. The staff made us feel like we were a burden as we ordered our drinks, the place had a strange odour and in general not really on the level to be expected from such a cool area..

Margarita was acidic and took forever to come out. Good live music though.

Had a great event here, staff were lovely and Matt was great to deal with. Would recommend!
