Fancy a drink in Ancient Greece?????

Advantages: Cosy, not too crowded
Disadvantages: Stict dress code

...partner suggests we go to Bacchus (its actually where we went on our first date aaahhhhh).

Bacchus is situated in the middle of Birmingham City centre, in the Burlington arcade on New Street (its about a 1 minute walk from New street train station). Actually Bacchus is underneath the arcade so unless you know its there you wont find it.
There is a staircase in the arcade, which you follow down to a glass door where you are ...
...female bouncer).

Bacchus is the Greek god of wine (and fertility) and there is a large paining of him on the wall above the stairs.

Once inside, you’re transformed to another world, the theme of the bar is………. actually there is a mixture of themes, a kind of medieval, Ancient Greece and Egypt rolled into one.

The bar is divided into different spaces, each decorated in its own way, you can choose between ... more

My favourite bar ever

Advantages: Big comfy chairs, not too busy, chilled out bar
Disadvantages: Sometimes a bit cold, especially if you end up sitting in the seat by the door, always left till last!

Bachus is my favourite bar in Birmingham. Not really one for a large night out but for somewhere for a quiet drink, a gossip with friends or just to chill out it is excellent. I'd lived in Birmingham for 2 years before I discovered Bachus, it's underneath the Burlington hotel on New Street, one of those places that unless you know it's there you don't really notice. Bachus is always busy but never crowded, getting a seat is sometimes tricky. Having ...

Realx and Unwind at Bacchus Bar

Advantages: Escape the crowds of New Street; Atmospheric; Comfortable
Disadvantages: Strictly over 21's; More pricey than average for Birmingham

Bacchus is like an oasis in the middle of Birmingham, and once inside you won't belive you're only a minutes walk from the crowded Bullring Shopping centre. The venue is good for a variety of purposes; a lunchtime coffee; dinner, after work drinks, or a cosy date...all are catered for here. A good selection of wines and beers on draft, as well as an excellent selection of hot drinks is accompanied by a varied menu offering traditional food, as well ...

A Historical night out

Advantages:
Disadvantages:

Bacchus Bar is situated in the centre of Birmingham on New street, which is one of Birmingham's main shopping streets. It can be found in Burlington arcade just off the street. As you go down the stairs you are instantly sent back in time. It has several themes including medieval, egyptian and traditional English decor. It's arched brick roof is very impressive, so too are the furnishings. Where ever you sit you will enjoy the whole atmosphere of your surroundings as you weave in and out of the various sections and walkways. It is positioned underground which adds to the feeling of passing through a time barrier and leaving the 21st century behind. The prices are reasonable for a city centre bar and there is a good choice of food on offer. The dress code for the day is relaxed in general but smarter dress is required for the evening ...

Review of Bacchus

Most aptly named bar ever

Advantages: Centre of town, good prices, good atmosphere
Disadvantages: Small (but cosy)

Bacchus, in Greek and Roman mythology, is the god of wine, identified with Dionysus, the Greek god of wine, and Liber, the Roman god of wine. The name Bacchus came into use in ancient Greece during the 5th century BC. It refers to the loud cries with which he was worshipped at the Bacchanalia, which were exhaustive celebrations in his honour. These events, which supposedly originated in spring nature festivals, became occasions for licentiousness and intoxication, at which the celebrants danced, drank, and generally debauched themselves. Thankfully, this is not the case in the city centre student and gay friendly bar of the same name! What you should expect is a small but busy drinkery, which is decorated in a simplistic modern style. The clientele generally come from nearby University of Strathclyde, and caters as a pre ...

Review of Bacchus

The Best Italian Cafe Bar in Toon

Advantages: Superb Food, Superb Service , Superb Staff , Just Superb
Disadvantages: I'm not there now

Pani's is a hidden treasure situated between Grey Street and Northumberland Street in High Bridge opposite the Bacchus pub. It's a genuine Italian cafe cum restaurant and bar, run and staffed by Italians with Italian cable TV and great food and beer. To quote the introduction on their excellent web site it is: "The only truly genuine Italian Café going, where the waiters speak Italian, the coffee is as good as it gets in England and the food is fantastically…well, Italian." They used to have a delicatessen attached but that has been integrated to make the place even bigger. Even so you often have to queue to get a table on Saturday lunchtime. The web site is at: http://www.pani.net So you can check out all the menus and drinks available. On their lunchtime (10 am to 5pm) menu they do a selection of salads, ciabatta ...
