Hadn't been to Clause before but a few people had recommended it so I thought I'd give it a try. Went with a mixed group 3 girls, 3 boys straight from the office on a Friday night. By 6pm it was really busy, all the staff were great and bubbly, the cocktails were 2-4-1 until 8pm and the food platters were really good quality for the price. Good music and not small like other basement bars which can be stuffy and uncomfortable. Can't wait to visit again soon and try the rest of the cocktails on the list.

Visited Clause Bar recently and just had to write a review. Having been getting somewhat tired of the same city bars me and my work buddies frequently eat and drink at, this hidden gem was a breath of fresh air. Nice friendly staff and a clean bright bar. We went for lunch and had a great meal, reasonably priced and very tasty. We then went back on the friday for happy hour and had the sharing platters which between our group went down a treat - really fresh. The cocktails were delicious and I am pleased to say not watered down. The music was really good and a great atmosphere. Overall fab experience, we enjoyed ourselves so much that we have reserved an area for this friday :-)

Me and a group of friends went to Clause Bar for the first time last friday for our friends birthday drinks. We had a amazing time they have happy hour from 5-8 which is great! We had some lovely cocktails and some nice wine. They also gave us a bottle of bubbly on the house for our group which was great! We ordered a sharing platter which was really nice. The bar was busy and had a nice nice crowd of people. Great atmosphere and really friendly staff we will be going back for the city life night in 2 weeks cant wait!

Went for lunch at Clause today and had an amazing burger with brioche bun very nice and tasty. I have to say my friends also enjoyed the curry and the fish finger sandwich with poached egg from the Express lunch menu. Food quality and presentation has definitely improved at Clause.Service was great as always. Will be back soon....

I have been to Clause a few times and have come away feeling quite unimpressed. Visited for a friend's birthday at the end of November on a Friday night. Wine was half price which seemed like a good deal so we chose a wine a couple above the house wine in terms of price (c.£20). It was really awful wine. For half price I guess we couldn't complain but if I had paid the full price I would have sent it back. They then proceeded to tell us we had to leave (when we had full bottles of said horrible wine) because there was a private party coming in at 10. There had been no mention of this when my friend booked the table, or on the door as we came in. In the end they kicked most people out and let us stay but by that point we were sick of the service so left.

They recently emailed round a free lunch voucher to celebrate the launch of a new lunch menu. I thought I would give them another try, particularly as it was free! After ordering our meals we were told we needed one voucher per person and not one per booking. The wording was very unclear on the voucher and there was no redemption code or personal details on it so I couldn't see the reason why they needed 2 copies of the exact same voucher. I explained my interpretation but they insisted that I pay for one of the meals. I had already ordered drinks etc so couldn't leave at this point.

I won't be going back to Clause. There are nicer bars in the City with better customer service!

Amazing lunch menu and very affordable. Perfect for a quick bite and a very decent bottle of wine over lunch with friends and colleagues. Very attentive staff and good offers all the time. Definitely try the Fish and Chips with a chilled bottle of white wine to brighten up any day of the week. Manager on the door was very charming and although we had to wait a 5 minutes for the table to be turned around (it was a busy Thursday), we had a quick coctail at the bar while we waited. Super value and a lovely venue for day and night.

Clause has great decor and atmosphere. I had lunch with my co workers and we all agreed that this maybe great place but for drinks only.
I had salmon dish which wasn't cooked all the way and the potatoes were hard. The plate was nicely presented but the amount oil that was pour over the whole thing was huge. It overpowered everything and all you tasted was oil.
One of my co worker's salad was lettuce, with some squid in what tasted like store bough sweet chili. Not very impressive.
After lunch many of us had espresso which were so watery that they tasted more like brown water than espresso.
The service was nice and polite but took ages for everything and the place wasn't even packed.
Overall, i won't be eating there again but because of it's great decor and atmosphere, i just might give it a try for a cocktail.

Was in Clause the other night for my friend's leaving drinks, great night, food was good, if you like cheese they do a massive medittereneon platter, under a £10, their new menu is really good plus they have a new DJ, real nice guy DJ SOL, well done mate, the music was awesome, real funky house, RNB and the tunes you would like to hear on a night out! great memories!

Thanks for a great night clause, will be down soon!
