Pub Red Light

A cool place with a great atmosphere. Very open-minded people. We randomly popped in for a beer and had a lovely time. The decor is truly fantastic. And they have porter on offer :) I can't comment on the food because we only drank beer.

I found out about this bar while looking for any local gay bars during my recent stay in Gdańsk. I recognised from photos that it had great atmosphere and seemed to be a top notch bar with good reviews. But my experience there really disappointed me and was grossly sub par compared to many other bars and gay bars I have visited. The atmosphere was as promised but the service and drinks were the greatest disappointment of my evening. There was zero contact with most of the bartenders even though they seemed to be managing the queue very well. And the cocktails were a complete disaster. I ordered a pornstar martini and a whiskey sour and both were abysmal. The whiskey sour was watery and had barely any taste, certainly not a sour one as one might expect, observing the bartender it was clear that it was prepared quickly and incorrectly, shaken wrongly and made from imprecise ingredients. The pornstar martini was by far the most disastrous one I have ever witnessed. Instead of the classic, thick and, sweet drink, served with a side shot of prosecco, the drink was a watery, bland mess made from a little basic vodka and some juice instead of the thick sweet puree. In fact, the pornstar martini was more sour than the whiskey sour, and was anything but sweet. It lacked the taste, the texture and even the consistency of what a pornstar martini is and historically was. The prosecco was poured into the drink, destroying any possible chance at a pornstar martini taste, and replacing it with a vague aftertaste of dry prosecco. Then, when asked about why it wasn't provided as a side shot, the bartender completely ignored me and dryly asked me to pay. Completely underwhelming and disappointing. I hope the other bartenders did this beautiful bar more justice.
