"Staff were so rude, aggressive, unprofessional, and judgmental when we visited for my birthday dinner on Saturday evening. I arrived first before my partner and was shown to a table upstairs right next to the door. It looked as though I may block the door when sitting down. My partner is almost 7 feet tall and definitely wouldn’t be able to sit comfortably without blocking the door, nor could he sit on the other side of the table as it was pushed up against the neighbouring table. I called a passing waitress and told her about my partner’s height and how I didn’t think we’d be able to sit there. She looked at me angrily and said “we don’t have any other tables”, to which I replied okay, I’m sure it’ll be fine- I just don’t want to block the door. The server then huffed at me and walked back down the stairs to which I could see her talking with another server and pointing to me up the stairs. It felt very uncomfortable, like I was being judged and laughed at. When my partner arrived he attempted to sit down and could only just squeeze into the seat. My partner called another server over, a different one this time, who was just as rude. This time they seem confused as to what it was we wanted/what the problem was, even though my partner was clearly having trouble sitting at/getting into the chair due to his height. The waiter angrily showed us to another table. We then heard the table next to us who had clearly been waiting for a long time if they could order their food. My partner and I decided that we didn’t want to stay and so we left the restaurant. We’ve been regular customers of Bar Soba, but after this experience, we definitely won’t be back. I’ve checked the other reviews and this isn’t the first time something like this has happened. AVOID this restaurant!"

Amazing food and friendly staff. Really cool designs over the walls and would recommend cheeseburger spring rolls

Large pub with great seating, open aspect into Merchant Square. Was actually there for speedating upstairs, changed my mind, sat downstairs with a nice pint of Madri

Very poor food, Yakisob prawn and chicken noodles were tasteless, Salt and Pepper chips were extremely salty to the point that it drowned out all other flavours. Won't be back View menu

Booked a table for drinks but when we arrived felt like they weren’t expecting us. Sat at a table and told nobody serving in that area so to use the app. Not the best experience

We were blown away with the quality and flavour of the food at Bar Soba, we were there for lunch and the variety of dishes was super impressive. Wait times for food were minimal, food was absolutely delicious and staff was super friendly and extremely helpful. We cannot wait to come back. View menu

Our waiter was actually fabulous and very accommodating. Unfortunately there was not enough bar staff as cocktails were taking ages to arrive, so we ended up ordering 2 each at a time. I had Terayki noodles which were very nice, some friends had the bao buns, their fillings were cold and the buns were all soggy and stuck to the plate. We waited just under an hour for our meal, so they mustn’t have had enough kitchen staff either. It was our first visit there and very disappointing

Brilliant little place in merchant square. Visited with some colleagues for lunch. It’s a nice atmosphere with very cool art work on the walls. We arrived just after opening time and unfortunately the food took a while. Eventually everyone in the restaurants food came at once which makes me think maybe the chef was late, or kitchen wasn’t set up. Either way, they gave us a really generous discount on the bill, something like £15 which more than made up for it. Everything on lunch menu is £8. I had the drunken thai noodles which were superb. Think it would be a good atmosphere in the evening with a few drinks.
