Bacchus Bar

Description

Bacchus Bar is one of Birmingham's hidden treasures. By rights this stylish bar should be one of Birmingham's top pre-club venues, but its obscure basement location in the Burlington Arcade, which is in the heart of the shopping area, means that it gets little passing trade and so relies largely on word of mouth. The decor is strange yet lovely: a cross between a brothel and a gothic church with Italian inspired design such as Michaelangelo style murals, Gothic features such as high-backed wooden chairs, candlelight, sculptures and statues. A great venue.
