Bar -OH — Restaurant in Cambridge

We entered this place because nothing else was open and it’s an overall okay. The vibes are a bit random and all over the place, it’s decorated like a gaming bar but the game choices are pretty lame. They have a live music section but I imagine that would be strange with people around playing games? They have this creepy robot at the entrance. The toilets are not the cleanest. In any case, strange choices that threw me off a second. The drinks were not very good. My friend got something served with a smoke bubble on top which I tasted and it was pretty nice, but the Red and Blue cocktails me and my partner got were bad. Way too artificially sweetened and came in these tall plastic cups in the shape of parrots that were tacky and hard to sip from (and I imagine also hard to clean on the inside, which gave me a bit of unsettling feelings about the overall hygiene of our drinks). Highly overpriced for the taste.

EDIT: No, I did not sip directly from the parrot, I used the provided straw (I wasn’t born yesterday nor do I need “instructions” to use a glass). My point was on how heavy and tall they are, hence making it very difficult to drink from. My point was that after I reluctantly drank more than half (I didn’t like it but I didn’t want to spend more money on another drink), I noticed all the crevasses on the inside of the glass and how difficult to properly clean they are. Also, will edit my previous 2 stars to 1 star instead because your condescending and rude reply didn’t make me feel heard in my feedback at all.

(And I would enjoy my life much more if I didn’t have to pay 12£ for a diluted drink that tastes like window cleaner into which a full box of sugar has been...

The place is a great idea and the staff were otherwise lovely, but I ordered a drink which did not have any mention of milk/cream in its contents on the menu, and I'm plant-based and lactose intolerant, so I naturally complained when I saw it had cream. The waiter agreed to change it for me, and asked if anyone would still like to have it. Thinking he meant they're going to throw it away so if we wanted it we could keep it for free, my friend agreed to have it. When the bill came, it was on it. I asked the waiter about it and he said we still drank it, so we had to pay for it. I think that's pretty unfair as my friend wouldn't have taken it had she known. If the allergens are not listed on the menu, it's not fair to make someone pay for the bar's mistake. And had it been made clear to us that keeping it meant paying for it, my friend might have chosen a different option. But the unwillingness of the staff to offer to take it off was the bit that I found unfair.

Update: I'm sadly updating my review to a 1-star one as I received a response from the bar I should have asked for allergens. You missed to include the fact your cocktail has dairy cream, one of the MAJOR allergens (when you said it contains maraschino cherries, which it had two tiny pieces of, for example), and you are trying to make this the fault of your customers? Oh, to add to this, it also had a marshmallow, which likely...

Came in whilst visiting Cambridge for the weekend. We’d seen Bar OH online and it seemed like a fun and vibrant place to go for drinks and live music as well as some retro gaming - so we booked! We arrived and gave our name, only to discover that we were meant to call as well as book if we wanted a table with a games console (nowhere on the website did it state this?). We sat at our table, ordered some drinks and scoured the area to see how everything worked. We managed to switch onto a gaming table with a PS1, but the games were absolutely awful. All of them were driving/racing games, and half of them didn’t work or the cartridges were missing from the cases. When the drinks arrived, my friend had opted for a fancy cocktail in a ceramic ice-cream cone. It looked amazing, but tasted absolutely dreadful. I tried a sip and honestly couldn’t have had any more. We asked to return it and they changed her drink to something palatable which we were grateful for. After an hour, we realised our only hope of getting some gaming done was to make friends with someone and slide in on their table, which we did and got a few games of Mario Kart in. Overall, we wouldn’t come back here as it was incredibly unorganised and the table situation was a disappointment. The drinks are expensive, which we wouldn’t mind if at least they tasted nice and lived up to their ‘premium’ listing...
