"I have been a long time fan of Fringe bar and recently held my 21st Birthday there and it was literally better than I could have ever dreamed. The fringe team was all wonderfully easy to work and coordinate with. Communication, coordination and organization with management was absolutely top tier. Bar tending staff were also so much fun and made amazing drinks (I cannot recommend their cocktails and mocktails enough). The atmosphere was friendly and fantastic. The quality of the venue in terms of appearance, sound quality, cleanliness, lights, and overall atmosphere was incredible as always. I just cannot recommend Fringe Bar to people for their events enough! Also your food was so delicious. Everyone at the party told me it was the nicest event they had been to, with many comparing it to school balls but saying it was better than any of them. This literally meant the world to me and I really owe it to all of you. Thank you thank you thank you all so much!!"
"This bar is a "must see"!! A wee hidden gem hidden only 20 steps from courtney place. The entertainment is always fresh ( no stale piano man here) Evenings are fun, fast and absolutely fabulous!! Able to cater for that small romantic dinner for 2, or for your local indoor cricket team out for some fun. I have to mention the hard working, knowledgeable amazing team that work here most definitely a true attribute to the Fringe bar. I'm so at home here in this amazing wee gem, go have a look....... I can guarantee you will become a repeat offender."
"Was there on monday for "raw meat" comedy night. Every monday 8pm for a good couple of hours. Get yourself a drink and support the comedians 8 or 9 in an evening each having a slot. 9,00 entry on line or ten bucks at the door. You will get great entertainment for that price."
