Reef Bar

Situated in front of all the trains in a glass complex is this chain bar-come-cafe. It is on the first floor of this tiny mall and you have to walk through a few small tables on entrance to the bar. These tables are exhibiting very large umbrellas for reasons unknown since the place is covered with a rather high, rather secure roof… Inside the bar is stocked but not impressively so. Its quite a big venue but with very little seating. I get images of drunken travellers waiting for their trains on their suitcases with pint in hand. There is food available but it is typically expensive, the bar service is friendly but very slow and the bar never really gets busy unless there are train delays. A bottle of wine will set you back £12 but i really cant see why you would come here to drink.

It is a rather out the way bar which appears to be used more for the toilets than the beverages but its clean and a good place to stop if you can find a spot to sit down - 4/10
