    This place gets four stars for the banter with the bar man. In terms of the bar itself, there's…read morenothing overt that sticks out to make this place unique -- it's cosy enough, with a fireplace and candles etc, but it's small and the decor doesn't say a great deal. You may notice it's got quite a local vibe too, since on our visit there were a few loud-to-rowdy locals crowded at the bar. Not that they were unfriendly, but for a single gal it could be intimidating to muscle in between 'the lads' in order to purchase a beverage. They have a cocktail menu, which is what we were after at the time, so I approached to see if we could knock up a few drinks. I was hankering for a straight up daiquiri, but this wasn't going to happen in Ambleside. He did, however, gladly make my Dad his very first white Russian -- which he loved. Happy days! Especially as that wasn't on the menu. For me, I had one of their in-house cocktails, which was strong, super sweet, and about 3 of my 5-a-day (it was loaded with fresh strawberries). That alone was enough to make me forgive Ambleside for the lack of proper cocktails. He blended it with ice, filled it with rum, and although it was slow to drink (ice cream headache central) it was delicious. Really decent lad behind the bar, and of course, plenty of lagers and such to choose from. They do food as well, I believe, but I've not tried.

    I came here tonight with a few work colleagues for a nibble after a long day at work…read more We had some queenies ( local isle of man seafood much like a scallop but smaller) see photo. These were tasty although did need a bit of salt and pepper added. Not sure about the chips ( french fries) it came with as think these were unnecessary and too heavy for this dish. The side salad with thin bread slices to dip in the sauce of the queenies was enough. We also ordered a side of sweet potato fries to share and boy o boy were these good!! You should get this as something to share! These are awesome!! My colleague had a sausage and mash meal and said it was good. It looked nice.( see photo) Good decor and nice food. One of the nicer bars to eat at in central Douglas.

    Bar George is a large bar in what used to be an old Sunday School building. Because of this, it's a…read moremassive open space that works well when the bar is busy, but can lend a slightly uncomfortable atmosphere when it's quite. The walls are covered in humorous, wine-based slogans that, although funny at the time, have since slipped from my memory. The bar specialises in wine and the whole back wall of the bar features as a massive wine rack. I took the cheats way out and went for their wine of the month, a dry rose, just so I wouldn't have to make any tough decisions! That said, I would love to come back and work my way through their wine list (this may take some time). The clientele on this occasion were largely office folks enjoying a Friday evening tipple. I didn't try the food but the menu looked interesting, if a little on the expensive side in comparison to other places on the Isle of Man.
