Restaurants in Douglas

Jak's Bar & Smokehouse

The bar review - it was a Tue night we visited so it was quiet. Had a decent amount of drinks options but only had Madri which was £6. They do have love bands and djs at weekends. Not a huge place but had an ok amount of tables. They do let folk vape tho so if you don't wanna smell an assorted of ridiculous smells, avoid. (And if you don't let them.....there was a couple people vaping at the bar Infront of the staff who were talking to them with no care in the world they vape)

The smokehouse - which is a restaurant upstairs (nobody board there) got a table on the Thu for 2. Doesn't have a smoke house look except from the wooden tables and the fires on the TVs.
Food -
Cheese and garlic bread with dip- small rounded garlic bread pizza style, decent amount of cheese but they claim it's homemade, it tastes more like store bought (they might freeze it but it never tasted fresh £6
Onion bites - massive portion with dip and small side salad. Chopped up onion bits battered and fried. £7.5 recommend.
Chicken burger - again, massive portion. Large chicken piece. Huge amount of chips - which strangely tasted like chippy chips but skinnier. My wife said it was really nice £19.50
Sirloin steak 6oz with chips (again the chippy style chips and huge portions) some side salad and peppercorn sauce - wasn't the warmest sauce. Thick and had peppercorn in it and it was nice. Steak medium, it did have some bits that was grey throughout and other bits that were pink but it was really easy to cut into and tasted nice. £21 steak £3.95 sauce.

Servers. Some of them were good but none of them went out their way to ensure a great experience. They were obsessed with checking bottles/cans. Saw a server walk up to the table next to me, picked up his bottle to check and poured it out for him without asking, which I would consider a little rude.

Overall it was a decent experience. Nothing I would rush back to.
