The Good Stuff
Relaxed atmosphere
The bar is repeatedly described as a comfortable place to unwind with friends.
Pool table
Playing pool is a practical extra for groups who want more than drinks and conversation.
Food choice
One visitor specifically enjoyed the Oriental mix grill alongside the drinks and service.
Accor points
Accor members may be able to collect points during a visit, according to one customer.
Tips for a Better Visit
Wednesday deal. Ask about Wednesday ladies night: one review says it included two free drinks.
Check membership. If you are an Accor member, ask whether your visit can earn points before settling the bill.
Confirm orders. Double-check beer orders before they are posted, since one customer reported difficulty changing from Amstel to Strongbow.
Bring a group. The pool table gives groups an activity alongside drinks, food and live sport.

The Bottom Line
Somerset’s Bar is a sports bar in Oud Metha built around live viewing, drinks and an easygoing night out. The business says it shows football, cricket, F1, tennis and NBA matches across 14 HD screens, while customer reviews specifically mention cocktails, bar food and playing pool. It is a natural fit for friends who want something to do between rounds rather than a purely sit-down meal.
The drinks are a strong part of the feedback. Several reviews describe cocktails as beautiful as well as delicious, and another customer enjoyed an Oriental mix grill. The atmosphere is generally described as relaxed, with locals using the bar to unwind.
Service is also a clear strength: returning guests say staff remembered previous orders, checked in regularly and stayed attentive even when the restaurant was crowded. There are a few practical cautions. One older review described prices as upmarket, with beer listed at $12/14, and other customers reported slow payment handling or difficulty changing an order once it had been posted.
If you are visiting for a deal, ask about the Wednesday ladies night, which one review says included two free drinks. Accor members should also ask about collecting points.
