Bar prices

Dave LRJ - 

Going over from 6th to the 13th to finish the place off ........... my apartment not PW !!

As for what you describe as the PW bar, may i suggest you open a shebeen from the back of a tranny van re-selling the shop's 6-packs by the can for twice the price once the shop has shut, always some desperado in need of another beer who's willing to pay anything  for it (in fact make it 20x the price, still cheaper than the bar, where they short serve you as well, my glass was still more than half full tho  !) 

Prices - 
€4 for a beer (which is filled somewhere between 80%-90% full)
€8 for a Magners
€1.50 for a bag of crisps
€12 for a bottle of Rioja

Hi all.
Can I add my voice to this thread? 
I agree with everything I've read on here so far. What a bunch of level headed, sensible folk we are eh?
Bar a bit clinical, a bit over priced, grumpy Herbie, cheap looking fittings, not much atmosphere, etc
I also agree that it's meant as a stop gap until the Foro is U & R. 
I am a bit worried that PW have misjudged their customers on this 1st phase though. 
I think the properties are aimed at...........how shall I put this.......? Those of us who do not own a Ferrari, Lotus or Rolls Royce, but the bar prices seem to aimed at people who wouldn't flinch at spending 100 Euros on a good few beers. On the other hand I think the supermarket prices (for most things) are very reasonable.
Does anyone know if the other PW developements went through this same process while they were being built, ie 1st & 2nd phases?
I suppose I'd have to admit that most of my tight Welsh friends and family that might consider using our apartment would squalk at paying nearly £4 a 'pint'...........as do I.

Shampers..........I'm afraid I can beat your Dr Miguel's special medicine 6pack for 2.50..........LIDL in Pto Maz do a fabulous German paint stripper Pils for a meer 25c a can.............I can almost hear my liver being pickled!

Let's say the bar is contemporary and minimalist daahlings! I only saw it through the locked door when we were over and our garden shed has more character. Hope you all sort out the barman ready for when we scousers decend on him. I'm sitting in the hospital next to my daughter who's op went well and she's making a splendid recovery. Thanks to all of you who sent us their good wishes. She'll sort out the miserable barman when I bring her over in the new year! Love from a very relieved Tan

Come on folks...give the poor guy a break.  Whilst he may not be 'the life of the party' , the couple of times I have been to the bar he has always been efficient and polite. Let's be honest..we all have our off days, and are more than capable of being whinging winnies (ring any bells), so maybe we should give him a bit of slack, and allow for the fact he too may have the odd off day. As for 'sorting him out', being polite and considerate won't harm, instead of continual moaning! 

well said.....after going in a couple of times he opened up to us a bit even knew the round of drinks we had........don't forget it isn't the Spanish way to be rushed in doing things and sometimes when it has been busy (okay 4 or 5 to serve is a rush in there) he concentrates on getting everyone served...I think he stops smiling while he concentrates :) All in all, he's actually a nice guy doing a good job...

remember you can get a discount card with the discount pack.collect it after completing.the golf voucher is really good.2 players can play free on any of the polaris courses.if anyone is completing from december onwards and dont want the golf voucher(valid 3 months) please let me know and ill make you an offer.

Hi, we found the barman to be a bit surly at the start but as the days went on he did get better once he got to know us. We had a great night at the bar which was supposed to be Welsh Wizzards birthday bash. As the night went on and i was stood by the bar i got talking to him and introduced myself properly to "Herbert", after this Tracey's Rose wine glass was filled to the top, my beer was near the rim, as shamper's can vouch for it was usually a short measure and by the end of the night my Daughter, her boyfriend and i think Peter (PDMG) had some free Sambuka's. They did suffer for this next day though. Herbert doesn't set the high prices and i think he will get better when he get's to know people.

Looks like i subsidised WW's party with my short measures ................. hope WW put a ton behind the bar before he left ahead of his round falling due 

Happy Herbie was very polite, tedious place to work, he didn't decorate the place like a dentists (can't be nice to work in that environment), so no complaints about him, and that bar will not be there long term - i think the set up already suits a gym, only needs a couple of changes
