What Wanderlust Wolf likes about Helm Bar:
Pro: Barramundi Fish was excellent. View is amazing. Great vibe. Casual vibe. View all feedback. What Chik n' Cheeks doesn't like about Helm Bar:
Booked for the Helm Bar. Arrived and told to head upstairs. Then told that we were actually down stairs at the Yacht Club, even though confirmation stated we were seated upstairs. Apparently the place was booked out, but there were multiple tables free inside. Taken to our table and left alone, no communication on where to get menus/drinks from etc. Food was quick, but was cold and oily when we got it. Had 2 drinks,... View all feedback.

I booked in advance and my table was not ready. Then when it was I was not told. The person greeting us at the door was rude.
