Host rules

Welcome to The 1 Bar, where every evening is an occasion and every guest shines.
Here is a little guide to make your visit memorable:

1. Dress to impress: We encourage you to dress with flair and originality. Show us your unique style!
While we love a touch of glamour, we kindly ask that beachwear, sportswear, loungewear, flip-flops, tracksuits, sports trainers, and caps be saved for other adventures. In warmer seasons, gentlemen may opt for smart shorts.
2. Age gracefully with us: Please note, that we welcome guests who are 21 and older. Make sure you have your ID handy.
3. Respect and Enjoy: We're all about creating a joyful and safe environment. Disrespectful or disruptive behaviour doesn't mix well with our cocktails.
4. Entrance etiquette: Our team reserves the right to make decisions on the door. We aim to create a balanced and pleasant atmosphere for everyone.

Cancellation policy: Standard 30 day

30th Birthday Party · 130 guests · March 2025
If you are looking for a venue to celebrate a special occasion, this is the venue you need! I celebrated my 30th birthday at the 1 Bar and everything exceeded my expectations. Not only is the bar aesthetically pleasing, but the staff there are lovely and go over and beyond to meet your expectations. I was quite particular with what I wanted for my birthday celebration and Alicia ensured everything was in place to meet my vision, and this was delivered. I am still getting questions about the venue till date for those looking to celebrate. I was able to bring my own decoration and food and Alicia and Dimi made this such an easy process for me, considering this was an issue with other venues. Not only are the staff here very friendly, but they do everything to make sure your birthday party is a successful one. Big thank you to Alicia and Dimi for their professional expertise in event planning which contributed to a successful 30th birthday party, would highly recommend!
