The Old Tavern is a truly fantastic bar and a fun place for everyone to get the most out of their holiday! I lived in Lagos for two months at the start of the summer and witnessed first hand (on a nightly basis!) the enjoyment people got out of this brilliant venue. Unfortunately, im unable to go back this September... more

I went twice to Lagos last year, and my favourit bar was absolutely the old tavern, the owners were very very kind and the cocktails they make are definitely better than in the other bars. We had a great time, thank you! more

I am really glad we found the Old Tavern at the start of our holiday, Maralyn and Michael, the owners, make everyone so welcome. there is a real mixture of people of all nationalities and ages. The 60’s, 70’s and 80’s music playing non stop is refreshing after some of the noise coming out of other bars! Maralyns’ cocktails are... more

Having been to Lagos several times, we stumbled (quite literally!!) upon the Old Tavern in 2005. What can I say? This, for me has to be the best bar in Lagos!!! The owners, Marilyn and Michael are the best. I have travelled to lots of places over the years and I have to say that they have to be the... more

The owners Maralyn and Michael are the friendliest hosts you could wish for and make everyone feel welcome. They... more

I've just returned from a two-month stint in Lagos and must thoroughly recommend anyone who visits to make sure they head down to The Old Tavern in Lago. The cocktails are numerous, the atmosphere is inviting, and Marilyn & Michael provide an wonderful service with a chinwag thrown in for free! It's a great place to go- whether you're in... more

After five days in Lagos and countless bars, we'd have to say The Old Tavern was by far our favourite place to quench the thirst. You must try Marilyn's strawberry daquiris, they are outstanding. We had 12 in one night, we should know!! Marilyn: The Bundy rum is on its way as soon as we get home. Look for an... more

Just come back from a weeks stay in Lagos and 2 recommendations: The Old Tavern for a nice drink! Michael & Marilyn will always give you a warm welcome. Good beer, pool table and Tvs for sport. Bye the way, Happy Birthday Marilyn! The No Patio Restaurant, 10 meters away from the Tavern. Martyn the chef and his wonderful menu... more

What can I say, just spent a week in the best bar in Portugal. If you want excellent value for money,good company and brilliant music then join Marilyn and Mike at the Old Tavern. Good mix of couples,singles,friends,locals and all nationalities. Just wish it was my local in Bolton. Thanks for everything (including the free port!!!) Best wishes from John... more
