Ink Bar

Great venue of modern historic significance for Bournemouth a real bit of recent ‘industrial heritage’ for the seaside town that seemed to miss that particular revolution no dark satanic mills here but a wonderful Art Deco printing ‘factory’, the old Bournemouth Daily Echo print room, now a really cosy and welcoming bar (with restaurant next door in the huge old print room itself). High stools and tables, luxurious lounge settees, dark, moody but warm atmosphere, excellent.

Attractive décor and not too noisy (OK, it was quite quiet) on a Tuesday evening: but — especially after printing and using one of their own online discount vouchers — good value for a bottle of quite acceptable wine. Excellent place to meet and chat.

This bar is situated in part of the Art deco building which houses the Bournemouth echo (hence the name).
This bar is a good place to go for a drink with a new date, especially if you were to follow it up with a meal in the print room next door.
The décor is chic, with lots of dark colours and opulent fabrics.

Great Bar in the old Echo building. Comfortable sofas — you can relax there for ages. Tea/​coffe and cakes etc are reasonably priced and there is also a bar menu available.
