The Point is a small complex of 3 bars and a night club, none of them being particularly…read moreoutstanding. 'Purple Bar' which, believe it or not, has a lot of purple lights, is your 'seen it all before' pseudo-trendy bar. 'Arizona' is next on the list. As the name implies it has a western theme to it and plays the type of music everyone knows the words and can sing a long too. The last of the bars is called 'Velvet Lounge' I've never seen it open and apparently you need to be a member. A VIP room lacking in VIPs perhaps? The decor inside looks like something from a Beyonce video... full of, or lacking in, taste. Depending on who you ask. The nightclub is called 'Union' and it's a fairly large venue. It plays the usual selection of dance and chart stuff with the exotically named DJs 'Liam' and 'Craig' putting itunes on shuffle all night long! Drink prices throughout are £1.50 for singles/mixer and they have offers on from time to time.

I paid the bar attendant a £50 and was given back £4.20. I bought the price of the drinks to the attention of my friend whom I was visiting at the time she advised me to go back and make a compliant to the manager which I did and he said he would review the cameras and give me a call back. I never received a call therefore I returned to the bar twice and both times was turned away.The manager claimed that there were too many black people in the club that night so he wasn't able to identify me and refused to give me a refund although he mentioned to my face that he believed I wasn't lying about the transaction. All I would say is to be very cautious when going to the bar and always always ask what the prices are before you even purchase anything

It's a great spot for a spot out in town whether it's just for a meal out or a lively night out on the weekend. The only reason I had to give four stars was because when we went, we tried ordering multiple things on the menu which we were told they did not have that day, which was unfortunate, but the food was pretty good and I would definitely go back!

It manages to pull of a classy environment without descending into a farcical trendy bar. It felt like more of a lounge than a bar with it's dark wood floors and leather sofas.

There is always a good number of people there making for a good atmosphere. The choice of music is great, you have a lot of music from now and the past, so a good variety for everyone. It is also good for IDing people, so you do not end up surrounded by school children. Sadly, I cannot comment on the drinks as I tend to go here late on in the night and cannot remember the prices by that point.
