Had
a
few
drinks
at
the
bar
after
a
late
finish
at
work.
It
is
one
of
the
latest
closing
(long
after
midnight)
bars
in
the
area,
particularly
midweek.
The
key
draw
card
here,
which
will
define
if
this
is
your
kind
of
scene,
is
the
piano
man.
On
the
ground
floor
is
a
large
piano
played
enthusiastically
by
a
player/singer
who
has
some
background
instruments
playing
off
his
laptop,
which
also
represents
his
song
sheet.
The
music
is
a
mix
of
old
and
new
well
known
pop,
jazz
and
rock
music.
The
music
was
all
sung
in
English,
of
which
the
singer
was
not
a
native
speaker.
As
a
result,
some
of
the
lyrics
ended
up
a
little
out
of
tempo
and
some
lines
omitted
completely.
This
was
not
really
a
problem
as
the
people
around
the
piano
were
quite
happy
to
join
in
and
sing
too.
One
night
there
they
also
had
a
microphone
and
a
couple
of
the
patrons
were
performing
karaoke.
Some
of
the
patrons
would
take
to
the
floor
and
dance.
I
never
found
it
crowded,
but
never
empty
either.
The
vibe
was
happy
and
it
suited
me
just
fine.
If
you're
trying
to
find
a
late
closing
bar
in
Old
Town
or
piano
bars
are
your
scene,
then
check
out
Hotel
Splendid.
