Miss it if you can
I heard so much about this place that I went here the first night I relocated to Chennai from Mumbai to meet a gang of friends.
Unfortunately, while they do live up to their reputation of letting in stags, they have the concept of two floors here - the lower one for those with partners and the upper one for the stags.
So, if you are a woman with more than two men, you are automatically sent up to the first floor, which is an issue since most men seem to end up at this pub.
Imagine fighting your way through inebiriated men most of the time every time you want to move somewhere, pathetic, yes.
Dancing on the ground floor is not that great a deal either when you look up above and see all the men oggling hanging onto the bannisters and throwing leers. It would be better if they just let everyone mingle instead, maybe then there would be a reduction in the number of desperate men who try to pour down their drinks on the dancers (yes, they do that too) who are on the ground floor below them.
I would rather just go to Zaras or Distil instead.

Just Chill-chill-just chill
Bike and Barrel is one of the few places in Chennai that give you everything right for a perfect chill out.
The Crowd is good; music is good, beer chilled to perfection, even the peanut masala is just right.
After sometime you may ask yourself if you are really in Chennai or in some other city. Only disappointment is they close so early!!!

A Britishesque Pub
This is one great place to catch up with some old friends and a chilled glass of beer!!!
The whole place resembles a british pub of the 80's, what with lotsa bikers memorabilia and a Norton bike hung from the ceiling.
Its got two floors, one level is for the couples and special guests and the second is for Stags. The food is a mix of italian, mexican and tandoor.
It serves almost all kinds of drinks. inculdes a dart board a pool table too.
There are wide varieties of cocktails and mocktails.
A great place to be on a saturday night!!!
