This bar is within the Dundee University Student's Association, therefore you need to be a student or member of staff at the University, or a signed in guest to frequent the delights of this establishment. Prior to ripping the soul out of this particular bar in the refit of 2002/03, this bar and its sister venue, The Tav (RIP) were excellent venues. The Liar in those days was almost a "doughnut" shape, where you could walk right round the perimeter of the bar, with a massive serving area in the centre - the bar in fact was the biggest operational student union bar in Scotland. It was welcoming, friendly, slightly rough around the edges, but had an unrivalled atmosphere. Nowadays, the place is all show and no substance. Like much of the "cafe bar culture" type refits of the late 90's / early 00's, the previously comfy padded booth seating has been replaced with perilously high stools, masses of chrome and faux-leather poofe' type seating. Drinks are cheap in comparison to nearby public houses, as you would expect. No real ale, a pretty drab pint of creamflow, lager or cider. And plenty of garish coloured disco water to get the young 'uns going. MountainMan - 25 Nov 2011 01:42 |
