Best damn martini I ever had (and I've had a "few")…read more Naturally, the Plymouth gin helps. BUT..... The bartender showed me how he makes a dry and medium martini including the different proportions. Simple, huh? What I found amazing was the quality was repeated from drink to drink. Not often are bartenders that precise (The only place I've seen that standard was in Tokyo's Imperial Hotel "Frank Lloyd Wright" lounge). In Plymouth, treat yourself to a work of art in the Refectory Bar in the form of a perfect martoonie , mixed and served in wonderful surroundings by "PhD mixologists".

We picked the Treasury as a convenient spot for a pre-theatre dinner and despite some initial…read morereservations as we arrived to hear very loud music being played upstairs, we were very pleased with the decision. We'd called ahead to reserve a table for 6.15 (for a 7.30 theatre show) and were quickly shown to our table by the greeter. Having reiterated that we were on a deadline, we ordered wine and then speed-read the menu for a swift order. My Ravioli and rocket dish was spot on, as were the two dishes selected by my parents, both from that day's specials. The house white was reasonably good too. Overall, the bill for three mains and three large glasses of house white was just under £50, so that was a reasonable cost, especially given the speedy service and the conveniene of the location. Pretty good, all round.

It also offers good, cheap drinks and tasty food (well, at least the dessert, as I didn't actually eat dinner here). It can get crowded, but there seemed to always be room somewhere to grab a seat. The drinks were always good and the cocktails never weak (though some were odd - I'd skip the Purple Rain if I were you, unless you like kool-aid). The prices were hard to beat, too. Some pints went for as low as £1 - can't go wrong with that! All in all, more likely a 3-star pub with a bonus star for great prices on many drinks. Also, be sure to try some Crabbies while your there - I found it to be a rather delicious ginger beer!

Hardly any staff in there (we were informed that some had quit, while others hadn't turned up) and I assume the heating was broken as there were a number of calor gas heaters around the building.

The one great feature of this place is its beer garden at the back- if you don't feel like walking to the Barbican for a drink in nicer surroundings and you're looking to stay in and around town, I recommend The Union Rooms beer garden. It's a pleasant, closed off space with some nice fountains and quite comfortable surroundings. It does get busy in the slightest hint of nice weather so be prepared for that.

However, now it's changed character and become one of the Wetherspoon pubs, it's still good but in a different way. At least now you can get some nice meals, especially if you're vegetarian, as there are several good choices. It's on a busy main road and corner so parking can be difficult. Your best bet is to leave the car in one of the residential streets behind.

Lively on a Saturday night-but still okay for children earlier in the evening. There's a small outside courtyard space that sadly tends to get dominated by smokers. Parking's a problem , so walk if you can. Food as ever is cheap and good-and a wonderful range of beers/cocktails wines especially if you choose a Wetherspoons Beer or Wine festival for your visit. We were saddened by the disappearance of waffles with banana,maple syrup and Ice cream however. But the spinach,chick pea and potato curry is a great addition! Go Spoons!

But on the whole the staff seem to be accepting of most people, young or old. They also do some good deals on food, like 2 for 1 pizzas between 5pm and 7pm. There are tables outside in the summer, and fair enough there isnt much of view, but it is just really relaxed and chilled out. Prices vary and go up on the main saturday and friday nights, but overall i really like this place. The only downside is that it sometimes gets really rowdy and it can get very packed.
