Sunday’s are good fun… not for everyone, but they host a Karaōke night on a Sunday night, which has just started again. Good choice of songs, fun presenter and decent drinks offers on cocktails.

Music loud enough to tap a foot to, but not to drown out conversation. Booths to cozy up to friends and fellas. Toilets down a loooong set of stairs. It’s alright — cheezy cocktails abound — not much to write home about, really, but it works as an average stopoff in a city centre.

I’ve giving it four star for nostalgia. The food is cheap and nasty in equal proportions but we(my friends and I) used to come up straight from school on the bus, hide our blazers in our bag and have a beer and burger. Sadly things have changed a wee bit and their more strict on what time you can have the deals(I think it was between 2 and 4pm for lunch which isn’t particularly user friendly). The thrill of having a cheeky underage drink really did cover up a multitude of sins and even though you can still get two, booze-filled tacky cocktails for a fiver I wouldn’t dream of making the trip to go there apart from to reminisce about being 16 and stupid.

A dated and naff old bar, but one with just enough downtrodden character to be strangely loveable, Henry J Beans has been here as long as I remember. Like a cockroach after the apocalypse I’m sure it will outlive some of the more fashionable bars that currently litter the city centre. With old-skool cocktails like Woo Woos and Sex on the Beach, Henry’s is a bit of a relic and an underdog of the modern day. Gotta root for the place.
