    Great service and food, however disappointed that noone mentioned that they had automatically added a 10% service charge to our bill. Nowhere to be seen on the menu this is done. I like to decide how much I tip...and that depends on good service.

    Bucks Bar was recommended to us by a friend and it didn't disappoint. The choice of flavours and sides and the portion sizes were generous to say the least. The staff were all friendly and couldn't do enough for you. The live music on a Saturday night topped it off for us.
