Lammars Bar At Favelas Cantina

Although the food was nice and there are half price offers during the week, the service is abysmal. We came to eat at 7.15pm on a Thursday. Within 15 minutes they suddenly turned the music up to the point it was hard to hear what my friend was saying. We asked politely if there was any chance in lowering the music. The waitress said bluntly, ‘no, it’s just that kind of place.’ We laughed that off as she suggested we move to the little room near the front. We did and said we had a half price food deal. We ordered food and at no point was it mentioned that bar snacks don’t count as food so they won’t be half price but we ordered olives (technically a bar snack on the menu). The food came and was tasty. Unfortunately the waitress kept coming back regularly, taking our food and asking us if we wanted it wrapped up before we had even finished our drinks. Asking us if we wanted another drink before we had finishe half our pints and when we said no thanks, telling us she would bring us the bill. She brought the bill even though we had showed no interest in leaving and the bar was practically empty. I looked and the food was not half price, they’d charged full price for the olives. I questioned this with the waitress, she went to the bar to check and said olives don’t count. I said, why, they are food. She said olives don’t count as food. I said, you eat them, they are food, the offer didn’t advertise restrictions. She said that’s the way it is. She didn’t attempt to apologise for forgetting to mention or for the poor advertising. She said she couldn’t do anything so I paid and she made a comment saying ‘looks like you could spare that pound after all’ whilst handing me my receipt. She then walked off before I could pull her up for her rude manner. She brought back our change shortly, which was less than a £1 and slyly said, ‘sorry it’s not quite your pound’. Again she walked off before we could say anything. Basically what could have been a lovely meal out with a friend was ruined by an extremely rude and careless manner of staff. No wonder the place is dead.

This is a good bar and restaurant with a great atmosphere and décor. The staff were very pleasant and helpful and the food is very reasonably priced. When we visited we had 50% off which made the entire did bill for 4 people £31. The drinks are more normally priced. The food was good quality but delivered very slowly considering how empty the place was. The toilets were clean

This new bar restaurant has fantastic food ( recommend the fish stew which is like Thai curry ) and live Brazilian music nights with dancers. The service is personable and they sell cocktails. The décor is lovely and different with plants covering the walls and comfy seats. A new favourite!

Nice vibe and decor and fast food

Fantastic food for the price! I was quite envious of my girlfriend's seafood stew, but the pork skewers were almost as delicious. The atmosphere in here is really fantastic (great music!), And the waiters & waitresses were very friendly. Looking forward to coming back here again on a regular basis :)

Friendly staff, but took a long time to get served. Lots of food on the menu wasn't available and most of my halloumi was substituted for potatoes as they had run out. Didn't get a discount for that! What food we did have tasted good though and the wine selection is good. Would definitely get there early next time so I can eat what I order!

Great food, fast service. Good ♿ access. Went on a Wednesday afternoon, it was quiet and 50% off all food all day Wednesdays. Brisket cheese fries are fantastic

Great dark atmospheric bar with lovely cocktails.

Nice music and ambient, but very slow service for food

Good food. Friendly staff. Room a bit dark and not very warm, table and seats could be a bit more comfortable. Decoration and food presentation was ok.
