Not sure what happened to the last two people but i can report i was at Archangel on the 13 December at a launch night of some new promotion. i have to say the music was top end house ALL night and my feet hurt later on! The bar satff were friendly and very quick. i don't know what the story was upstairs as i didn't leave the club all night but if downstairs was anything to go by i'd expect nothing short of a great night with lovely people and top tunes. We've booked for new year.
This bar used to be called Bar Cuba. It has a club venue downstairs. The venue is of a good-size and there was usually a decent atmosphere. However there was a change of management 2 months ago and since then the bar has gone downhill especially in terms of the bar staff who are incompetant: short-changing and taking their time. When I was there, in the downstairs club area, another customer was complaining about his drink order just after I had been short changed.
I wish there was an option with no stars. Went on Saturday night I liked the bar upstairs, which was not overcrowded, but the downstairs club seems to be quite a different story. Big disappointment as we went to dance the night away, expecting mixture of music, looking forward to salsa but all we got was cheap as they called it "Caribbean & Tropical Vybez" what a lot of crap. If you love dancing don't go here.
I like this place, downstairs there is a club which is small but big enough to have a good time. It used to be called Cuba which was a good laugh but quite tacky, whereas now there is an element of class. If your on High St Ken and have nothing to do, or have run away from the cattle-market (Amika), try it out, you may have a good night.
The food at Archangel is amazing- have the pork belly, and the lobster bisque- the passionfruit mojitos are pretty tasty too!
Archangel is amazing. The bar staff are cool, the decor is amazing, I loved the chandeliers, and the drinks are heavenly. I didn't try the Archangel food but I did see the menu. Ignore the last review, they don't know a good bar when they see one.
I've had several meals at Archangel and the food and service are always great. The Archangel club downstairs is good too.
Archangel hasn't change much from Cuba, they just put some different colour on the walls, and it looks so cheap. Please do something to really improve or you will close soon. The Archangel food and drinks are very average and expensive.
My partner and I went to Archangel last night for dinner and a cocktail. The food was delicious, exquisitely cooked and complimented by fab presentation. The Archangel platter is recommended as a great way to sample that little bit of everything. Last, but certainly not least, were the two fantastic Mai Thai's we enjoyed at the end of the night!
I used to go to the old Bar Cuba (which needed a facelift), and I must say the new owners of Archangel have done really well! They have great cocktails and great beers. The menu looks good, and so does the bar in general.
Archangel is a cool bar. We had some funny foreign beers there and they were really nice. The staff are nice people and the environment is well decorated. Archangel is probably more for trendier people than me, but I still had a nice time.
Archangel is a pretty cool looking place. The food is a bit odd, but then I guess it's because I have never tried this sort of thing before. They have friendly staff and the decor is cool too. I will definitely be back to Archangel for more.
