Nineteen Below Bar is the pinnacle of class, sophistication and modernisation. Soft lighting throughout, freshly polished floors reflecting the spotlit ceiling, and rows of plush leather chairs lining the entire space, creating ample room to enjoy cocktails and champagne with friends in a truly sociable atmosphere.

While 'nineteen below' may evoke images of some sub-zero ice bar, the name is actually derived from the fact that the Crowne Plaza Hotel is located at number 19 on New Bridge Street, and the Nineteen Below Bar is situated below the hotel. Such simplicity is reflected in the minimalist décor of the establishment, where professional staff offer attentive service, DJs play a mixture of jazz and chillout tunes and the clientele happily enjoy a lazy lunch or romantic evening meal in the pleasantly informal and chic atmosphere.

The well-stocked bar at Nineteen Below Bar serves some world class wines and an impressive array of cocktails, while the food menu is a combination of European, American and pan-Asian dishes that are sure to satisfy all tastebuds. Dishes worth noting include the satay chicken starters, the calamari frito tapas, the Thai green curry, the smoked meat platter, the calzone pizza, the home-cooked hamburger and the beautiful tempura courgette fritti.

Opening times: Monday - Thursday: 16:00 - 01:00, Friday - Saturday: 16:00 to 02:00, Sunday: 17:00 - 24:00.
