ministry of bar exchange

they’ve been charging gst without providing any invoices and later on when asked to provide invoice and details for the food, they reverted very arrogantly and disrespectful. poor hospitality and revenue cheating from the management

i am writing this review for letting others know that this place has lost its touch. from food to drinks to the music, everything has degraded in quality. i am a frequent visitor here. i used to love this place. but my last visit here was a disaster. my worst experience in clubbing.

drinks- quantity of alcohol in all the drinks was very less. they were serving just cold drinks in the name of shots. electric liit was just icy water. a friend of mine didn't feel anything after having 3 liits.

food- food was cold. we ordered 5 snacks. some of the snacks were okay. serving was the worst. had to ask for sauces everytime. due to overcrowding in the main area, waiter directly refused to bring some of the things.

music- music was okay. live singer was crying. dj somewhat saved the night. but dude played some sad songs in between that was killing the mood.

overall, it was a nightmare. watching your favourite place going this low. may be this was not our best day. may be we caught the waiter at one of his bad days. it all added up to such experience.

i have liked this place and have been there for many times.
but there is one thing which i don't like
there was a live band which was amazing but the problem was that 6-7 tables are exactly behind the stage due to which , the people sitting behind them are unable to see there performance
the stage is exactly in between the area exactly at the crossing

the worst experience i had with ministry of bar exchange! a person name goldy spoke in a very rude manner with us ! also the most unprofessional behaviour that i would have ever experienced in my entire life ! when me n my husband entered this place , we were told that u deposit 2000 rs. which will include " snacks and drinks" what does that mean in literal sense? like what does it actually mean? that few drinks and snacks would be included , right? but to out of surprise , the place was jam packed we couldnt get a table we stood at the bar that to finding a place to stand almost sandwiched in between, in all the hustle bustle we order our drinks and food , and later on come to know that the 2000 that we paid were to be basically just like a pre bill that we are paying and then we are ought to spend 2000 coz goldy being that rude said that we will not return a penny , when we were uncomfortable and couldnt stand there! we are not from chandigarh but not experienced something like this anywhere! also, cherry on the top was that we ordered for peri peri chicken pizza ...after waiting for half an hour , they give us the vegetarian pizza which was already lying on the bar table saying that ur non veg pizza will take half hour more.. like one hour for a pizza??? what the hell? im highly dissapointed! my evening is ruined! i need a justified response from #ministryofbarexchange .... what kind of a hospitality business are you doing?

i visited this place with my office colleagues. i must tell u that it’s the worst place to party in chandigarh. the drinks are bad, food is super bad. not even a single thing is good about this place.. please if u are planning to have a good night... don’t even give a thought to get in this place... the word is pathetic.. i guess they need a new chef. also i ordered a drink, there was a cockroach in the drink... i don’t understand what a kinda service they are providing... i wish they should get a hygiene check first

good place , nice setting but the worst staff. not hospitable at all. it was so sad to be there. dont go here if you want to have a good time with your friends or family especially on weekends. food is average, drinks are overpriced and staff attitude is the worst. you will find better places to party in sector 26.

staff has a serious attitude issue and are not courteous at all. overall bad experience.

nice place, with a variety of drinks available. music and the ambience is really wonderful and makes for a good night out with friends. lemon chicken is delicious and served perfectly.

well i must say the service was nice!. liquor options were nice too!!. though i feel..the portion size of all the dishes we ordered could have been better .overall it was a decent experience!

one of the finest place in tricity to enjoy live music and sports. but the food isn't worth it. nice ambience and open rooftop to enjoy partying and have fun with your loved ones and friends. grab the drinks and have fun.

food was delicious. i loved the food but not the place as it was not hygienic because of house flies and those were in abundance flying all over me and my food.i visited just once so i can’t say if it’s always like that but for me it was not a good experience. second thing that i think needs attention is that i ordered a drink i can’t remember it’s name but it was not served in a good way. it was spilling all over at the time it was served and also created a lot of mess on the table.

4 stars for great ambiance and superb live performance. had to take one away for awful snacks. dinner was good.

somehow we were never asked for hard drinks and we ended up not having any. lol!

how do i rate a place, where i was denied entry cuz i was wearing sandals.. i didnt know this or else would have gone barefoot.. how does dress code matter when all you have to do here is eat, drink enjoy & at d end pay for all this..

nice place preferable for younger age...really amazing place for spending dinnertime...nice for couples...really good place to spend weekend...nice service and food 😍
food-4.5/5
service-4/5
ambience-4.5/5
go n try for urself 🤞🏻😘

guuuud guuud food!! and a very gud time!!
vijay jammers rocks!! perfect ambiance and music for a rocking wednesday night!! lemon fish.. chicken tikka, mutton boti.. everything was upto the mark!

well ,there is a lot of hype of this place ,i am sure its only because of the good music cos honestly i didn’t like the food here. we ordered pizza, the toppings were so scarce and pizza base was too crispy, didn’t enjoy it at all!
