Bar Soba Mitchell Lane

"Great food - we recommend the Cauliflower Bao Bun and Veggie Gyozas. Thank you to Emma for great service. We'll be back."

"Absolutely superb service delivered by our server, Paul! Visited on Tuesday earlier this week after work with my friend and quickly noticed the stand out handling of a busy restaurant, at peak hours, flawlessly on his own. Taking orders, making drinks, delivering food and attentively ensuring each table was happy was nothing short of a masterclass. Lost a star as my rice was undercooked, although the visit was nice and we felt welcome and cared for from start to finish."

"I said to server just to note that there wasn't much chicken on my daughters teriyaki chicken; another chap appeared and asked if I had a problem with the meal, I explained it was delicious but was not much chicken; he said I can see lots from here - I wish I had replied 'what like six chicken scraps', this was when she had nearly finished her meal and were lying at bottom of plate. (You can see the picture attached - this was my plate when it had just been served, there is no chicken!!, and when u do get some it's small scraps). I am just used to getting some proper chicken pieces in a meal when u order chicken. (It was tasty, more chicken required though... felt a bit awkward with my daughter after that chat) I preferred the service and food at the west end bar soba."

"This is next to the lighthouse and tucked in, so easy to miss. The place is hip hop and food service is really quick. I ordered pad Thai chicken&prawns. As it is an Asian fusion food the taste wasn’t certainly what a pad Thai is but ok. The prawns did let me down. They weren’t prawns but shrimp as you can see. So would suggest go with chicken only. No use paying extra. 12.5£ Also had chicken dumplings. 5 for 6£. Which were nice but once again overpriced. I also had their Singapore slush which was nice but at 9£, wasn’t very special. It worth it. Taste wise food is 4/5 but price wise 2/5. I’m sure there are other options to try."

"Decent food, nice design and usually a good atmosphere. The Mitchell Lane Soba is better than the Merchant Square one, FYI! I’ve been here a few times and the main allure is the extensive cocktail menu available - a wide variety of ingredients and recipes that you won’t find anywhere else. Often, I’ve asked for a cocktail no longer available on the menu (Osaka Sour) and the bar staff have been able to make me one. Only issue is that sometimes they run out of the foams which go on top of the cocktails but they’ll always let you know if this is the case."
