Ain't Nothin' But... The Blues Bar

SquareMeal Review of Ain't Nothin' But... The Blues Bar

Arrive before 7.30pm, or be prepared to queue outside. This pecan-toned juke joint – a reasonably authentic tribute to Basin Street – has built up a devoted fan base since opening, & comes flanked by a hickory-smoked hotchpotch of Americana. You might find the next Big Mama Thornton or Screamin’ Jay Hawkins letting rip with deep, gritty, got-it-bad blues during the open mic sessions; otherwise hot jams, harmonicas & boot-scootin’ boogie are provided by house heroes Rollo Markee & the Tail Shakers or Gentleman Tim & the Contenders, seven days a week. To drink, stick with Marlboro Man hooch: Jack Daniel’s, Jim Beam or Johnnie Walker with a Bitburger or beer on the side. Wines for your belle are served by staff whose Southern charm can occasionally go west.

If you want to be abused go here - ask for Morgan

Last night my partner arranged to meet me here. On entry Morgan was rude and condescending in response to a question about table service. 
He then persisted by throwing a menu at the table and demanding payment while threatening to throw my partner out while she was on a phone call.

He was aggressive and on reflection also made a potentially rascist comment.   He said here in the U.K. clearly meaning your not white British 

I have emailed the owner and am waiting to hear back 

He was without exception the rudest bar person we have come accross ever.  
If you want to be abused then Morgan is your go to man.
