Review of Longs Bar
29 Apr 08, 21:32
love this place 
i spent 6 months living in swindon - this was the nicest place in old town for me!
loved sitting outside of a summer evening and the covered patio area was pretty funky too.
nice interior perfect for meeting mates afterwork or at the start of a party night out!
nice place.

Review of Angelo's

errrrrrrr no thanks 
this has to be one of the worlds smallest and most pointless venues.
sorry guys i went here on two occaisions and left shortly after arriving.
nasty decor, low maintained interior and sloppy bar-staff. i just wish it could be different.

Review of Casbah
29 Apr 08, 18:50
loud & karaoke...... hmmmm 
if your already pissed when you arrive - you'll love this place.
however if your the desigated driver you'll have a thumping headache!
over the top karaoke with really drunk horrific singers.
but if your with a large group it's a hell of a laugh - the usual wannabe's you find at karaoke nights aren't here so you can be as crap as you like and just laugh!

Review of Oasis Leisure Centre
29 Apr 08, 18:48
bit tired now
this place is screaming out for a re-fit. its a little tired now if you ask me.
dont get me wrong if you have young kids they'll love it especially the pirate ship and the flumes.
but lets be honest - its very 80's - 90's at best....
come on swindon - do this place up!

Review of Swindon Town Football Club
22 Apr 08, 14:42
well its swindon.......
suppose swindon needs a football team - and i suppose this will fit the bill.
bit of a ropy ground with an equally ropey team.
how things were soooo different many years ago.
it would be nice if swindon could get back to the top flight - but with the current management structure i can't see it happening.

Review of Yates's Wine Lodge
21 Apr 08, 21:56
here's another one
i love chains - wherever you go you'll find a macdonalds, a primark and a yates!
this one is like any other yates bar.
although when i lived here they only had a dj 2 nights a week. nice for chatting!! not nice if like me your a dj looking for gigs!
usual promotions, usual layout etc usual yates.

Review of The Giant Party Shop
21 Apr 08, 21:53
does what it says!
its a big shop full of fancy dress gear. used this a few times when i lived in swindon for parties etc etc.
they have pretty much every kind of out fit you could imagine - and whats not in store i belevie can be ordered in for you.
i dressed up as scooby doo, and dracula i seem to remember - both outfits lasted the entire party which for me is a sign of a strong up for it outfit.

Review of Lava Lounge
21 Apr 08, 21:42
average but ok night out
went here for a mates birthday - didn't have a shit night - but not that hot either.
music is ok - its from one of those electronic dj systems..... they were obsessed with the sugababes though got slightly annoying after 2 hours!
drinks deals i seem to remember were ok - however i'd been drinking so probably best to check those deals for yourself!!!!

Review of Revolution Swindon
21 Apr 08, 21:40
blind bling
this place is a wannabe london bar - in Swindon!
the music is too heavily rnb for it to be rammed full of normal clubbers out for a good time.
there is serious attitude as you walk in - immediately you feel like going to walkabout just over the road.
also as mentioned by previous reviewer - the drinks are very pricy.
wont be going back in a hurry.

Review of Pizza Express Restaurants
21 Apr 08, 10:59
Lovely meal
This is a lovely Pizza Express. I went on a date here over a year ago but seem to remember the restaurant and the evening as a great night.
The menu - obviously the same as the other Pizza Express Restaurants, however the service was unrushed and they left just the right amount of time between courses.
Very impressed

Review of Mcarthur Glen Great Western Designer Outlet
16 Apr 08, 16:05
i used to hate shopping! 
I really used to hate anything to do with shopping - until i visited the outlet centre.
the freedom you have to move around - the unpressured atmosphere and the relaxed approach from the guys in the stores - not to mention great prices make this a brilliant shopping experience. Thanks guys.
