Im torn on this review. Venue is an outdoor space by the water. I went at night on a day there was an event hosting 3 DJs spinning chill house music. The crowd was mixed and the vibe was nice, which I would rate 5/5. My overall 3/5 rating is because the food ordered was underwhelming. Ordered chicken laps and asked the server about this item and was told it comes with 3 chicken laps. What came to the table was a drumstick and 2 very small pieces of meat that were unrecognizable parts of chicken. Had to Google what chicken laps were and the result was not what I was served. Other people had similar reviews about this item. A great place for a drink but avoid chicken laps food item. (No picture taken of food)
Awesome. A bit pricey. But really friggin awesome. Simple, yet elegant. Finds a way of housing a mixed and diverse crowd, respectably/respectfully too I guess. Great place. Great cigars. Great gin. Great butterfly prawns and the sauces are to die for
Lovely ambience. Nicely located beside the Lagoon front. Decor is interesting. Food and drinks were good, except for the sweetcorn I ordered, which was anything but sweet! I complained to the waiter, but nothing was done about it. Willing to give them another chance, other things I ate were good. Its a nice spot to hang out with friends and family l.
First time visiting Bolivar. Nice place for a cool sit out. Was here on a Friday evening. Good music so you can dance, I liked the Dj. You have to reserve tables on busy nights, from N15,000 up I think. Theres a mini art gallery upstairs, which glows blue at night, cool for some disco effect. Drinks are reasonable priced, I did not try the food. Good crowd, most hanging out after work. Its by a waterside and there are some spots you can take nice pictures, you can see my friend in one in the picture I posted. Ill get more pictures next time😁
I like this place. Great vibe to it. Got that whole bohemian thing going on. Even hear theres like an acdc, everybody-come-inside kind of night during the week. If you know you know, some things are still illegal in the country. Cant go wrong siting your joint by the lagoon. Great views, good music... well worth a return visit.
I absolutely love it hereA waterside loungeThe customer service is 💯The food OMG I almost ordered another fish & jollof rice cause it was so goodThe drinks was chilled & they kept giving us iceAnd its so disability friendly,the walk in,the sitting arrangement,the rest room😘I love everything about this place & they will definitely see more of me 😍
Nice spot. Great food! I had the sea food platter which was super huge and the Mojito cocktail tasted good.Quick service delivery. Had a great time with my family here..
Great staff. Kinda tardy delivery. We seemed to wait forever for the bill. The food was nice, although the fries were cold and had to be returned to the kitchen. Everything else was great. I especially loved that even though we sat by the water, we didnt get bitten by bugs. I hate bugs.All in all, a good experience.
Nice place right on the water. Open atmosphere for you to breathe and I even mean this psychologically.One of the few peaceful place to enjoy some house music and vibes
Looking for Chill and pure Vibes? This is the right place to go. Trust me.It has the most interesting water front view, However theres a 50,000 naira minimum spend to sit at the water front.All in all I and my girls had the most amazing time there.Their staff are equally polite, friendly and very warm.
This is my go-to spot... they sell grade A of everything... their steak is awesome... the view of the river is dreamy...I love their hospitality too
The ambience was it! I and my friends were out for drinks, me in search of a well made whisky sour while my friends were willing to go with the flow they went with Long Island, we also had chicken wings & goat meat peppersoup that I forgot to take a picture of, the wings were underwhelming but the goat meat was very well done! I recommend, but mostly for drinks.
If youre looking for a locale with good music and view, then Bolivar is the right place for you.Bolivar was easy to locate with Google maps, my experience at Bolivar was a mix of a great ambience, good music and an awesome sight with a spice of nature.Also, the burger I had was really tasty so I would recommend that over and over again!
Now this place is Legit. No way Ive been sleeping on this spot. Please dont. Sleep on it too. Youre welcomed with glamorous asthetic and the service is great. Staffs are on the move with speed. The wave from the lake. Just do everything you can to be there on a Friday. Their prices arent that bad either. My 5⭐ isnt a fluke.
Nice spot with very interesting decor. The use of containers and the antique feel of the furniture gives it a very chill and relaxed feel.They also had a very hands on management team as the manager (cant remember her name, a bit hard to pronounce) and some other lady who must be high up were constantly engaging guests and making sure the service being delivered was excellent.Plus the back area overlooks a body of water and the Lekki-Ikoyi link Bridge.Comes recommended for a night out with friends and please be sure to try out their platters.
Lovely waterfront view, with a cheery ambience. I had extra spicy chicken wings, with potatoes and steamed veggies (you can never go wrong with steamed veggies). Overall experience was pleasant and relaxing.
Lovely vibe, amazing food, reasonably priced. Definitely recommend it
Nice ambiance, good food, but bring two wallets!
Great spot! One of the few waterside that the water dont stink. They have a jetty. Staff was good enough to help make a drink that wasnt on their menu.
Nice place to hangout and share cold drinks
Nice outdoor and lakeside experience; definitely an encore coming through
Beautiful ambience and good food. Not getting a 5 star because food and service could have been better
A very cool place to relax and unwind.
Lovely music lovely ambience good people but the foods and drinks seriously needs to be worked on. It was very little and expensive for no reason. Spent 26k on Chapman + chicken And chips x2 persons... the food came in late too I guess cos the had large orders and it was Friday
They have the best goat meat peppersoup Ive had. Try it out when next you visit
Bolivar has a space in my heart, and is arguably my default best place to chill after Eko Hotel’s Crossroads.Pricey is relative, so I’d say they aren’t cut throat neither are they so pocket friendly; they are teetering in the balance and when it’s past a certain time, there’s a minimum spend at the waterside tables and I guess every other well position spot in the joint
Lovely place, but getting seated was an issue due to too many customers.
Nice Place.Would definitely go back there.Although, the waiters can be a tad slow but thats expected, cause of the number of people in attendance.
Great Seat out within Lekki. Chilled drinks and grills 😊
Looking for outdoor chill out spot by d waterside . This is it. Dont bother on a rainy day.
The ambience was cool. They have beds also. I sat close to the water. The cocktails were not nice in my opinion (had the Minaj , Trini to Tha bone and long Island with passion fruit).Virtually all the cocktails either contains lemon, lime or lemonade.Limited options of food and drinks on the menu also.The place was packed and I still dont know why it was. Nothing special about the food.Nice music though.
...a chilled spot ...not loud ...not crowded!I visited again a 3rd time and got the worst customer experience. I later found out that the Female Lebanese Manager was indisposed and the Nigerian Lady on duty had the worst mannersThe way the staff hurried guests out. I wasnt even done with my meal and drinks, my table was already cleared. I wasnt done paying my bills, my table was already given out to new walk ins, already breathing down my neckI tried complaining to the manager I didnt like being rushed. And she told me other people want to sit, so hurry and leaveWell its my time and money, so I wont be visiting again or recommendingIts unfortunate a beautiful establishment can be ruined by entitled managers
The space is adorned with a lot of Wall Murals and Sculptures which makes the design really gorgeous. There are regular outdoor seats, hammocks and also cabanas (which sadly, are not free)The Menu at Bolivar Bar is very sparse. It shouldn’t be your first choice if you’re looking for a space with fine dining because they really only serve finger foods. There is a gallery in the premises which houses some good paintings as well.
Nice scenery and cool music. Great for a group hangoutThey can do better with their food and presentation.
Nice standard. Loved it there.
Appealing aesthetics, good company and delicious meals makes this spot another ideal stopover for our touring groovers.
Stunning.Open air with seafrontGreat musicEven better company
Really cool place, great for outdoor chilling with friends.
Good atmosphere with positive vibes.
Calm scenery. Bad when it rains though
Fine out door sit out location, but I wasnt impressed with the menu. Not alot of option there.
Lovely placeCool vibesNice crowdTasty foodMusic way to loud for a place thats not a club...you cant have a conversation without screaming across the table.
Great place to hangout by the waterside. Friendly staff, good music, great atmosphere!
Creative setup, nice view. Very slow service.
The ambience is super nice, with exquisite drawings on the walls and the atmosphere is super cozy
Nice place, but the water close to this bar, is unhealthy for human
Been there twice and its a wonderful chill out vibe! Got the hook up from CRAWL app.
Poor service, food was bad and expensive. Waitress was rude. Go at your own risk.
Love the ambience, good folks, the vibes...altho menu isnt dat price friendly for just a casual outing but overall experience is worth it
The environment is conducive for artistic minds with a lovely view of the ikoyi/lekki bridge however, there were lots of flies in the seating area which was quite off putting. It was explained that it was as a result of the waterside 🙄.The drinks were nice, however, I cant say the same for the food because we were given their version of bbq wings which were obviously fried. 🤦♀️
Nice music, great DJs, food, service and general attitude from the staff was shocking, Ive been in Lagos for over 11 years and tried most restaurants and without a doubt this is the worst service I have ever experienced......NEVER AGAIN..
Lovely hang out. Memories attached.
Bolivar was amazing. Love the Ambience. Am a big fan of not too crowded places so I had a good time.
Calm and a cool place. Lovely ambience. Cool seaside
Over priced same as every fancy place in Lagos but the location is pretty cool, right by the water side, and the music on Monday nights makes it a must visit.
Lovely scenery and Ambience. DJ Obi was also a refreshing part of the experience with his calm and soothing playlist. However the food is not advisable, nothing to write home about at all.
Super cool spot in Lekki phase one. I love the services here.
Pretty nice with good DJWarm reception and welcoming..The sea food and meat platter is nicee.Dont order for their jollof rice oo, its not niceNice atmosphere
I had real fun here
Cool environment for relaxation. Also has a waterside view 🤩🤩
Beautiful scenery(water , Greens). Superb outdoor space. The services could be improved.
Decent spot. Good food music and view. Outdoor location.
It has a nice vibe and a nice view because its by the sea but the food and drinks are not exciting, very basic
Average food, nice view..
As much as its classy....i dont really like their service
Cool place to chill at night
This place has a unique ambience🤝
Great hang out spot just right by the water.....good vibes
Very good seat out with the cool water original breeze and not too expensive for its setting
Awesome place, wonderful drink collections but poor chef
Lovely resturant and has an amazing view of Lekki-Ikoyi link bridge. I had lots of fun.
Enjoyed the food and the ambiance. Drink order was fast.
Lovely place to be! So chilled
A nice place tho
Good food and drinks
Great vibes, the music isnt obnoxiously loud that you have to yell to be heard...
Its so unique and comfortable to spend ur weekend.. The water side is so attractive and their meals taste great.
