It said ’ with very cheap drinks and good entertainment. There is always good music playing and the staff are always friendly.‘
I found the bar prices far from cheap and as the evening went on they prices seemed to rise. in fact 3 different bar staff served me the same round of drinks and each one of the staff had a different price ??? When i asked the manager, who incidently had the most expensive price for 2 diet cokes, why the fluctuating prices. he became even more hostile.(he had been gruff with other customers all night,) now i thought he was coming over the bar at me ! he was defencive and aggresive all at the same time, wanted to know what i was playing at? accusing him and he’s staff of cheating and it was my fault for mucking them about by chopping and changing my order. (which i hadnt). i didnt even mention he was selling el cheapo chernoble vodka as prem smirnof black or the bubles in the optics where still going up when they where drepresed again (a sign of short measures).
never going back and reported him to trading standards

The Curve Bar is just out of Colchester town, so it is mostly popular for gigs and functions as opposed to going there for a drink. However, this lesser-​known venue is a gem, with very cheap drinks and good entertainment. There is always good music playing and the staff are always friendly. It is an intimate bar and is always quiet due to it’s out of the way placing, so is a brilliant place to go if you want to get out of the hustle and bustle of Colchester. he gigs are an excellent showcase of the up and coming talent in the area, and are well worth checking out.
