“ Absolutely love Armado Lounge in Plymouth! Without a doubt, they serve the best burgers in the whole city. The tapas and breakfast options are also fantastic — such a great variety of delicious food to choose from. The atmosphere is always warm and welcoming, and the location on the Barbican is just perfect. We make sure to visit every time we’re in the area. Another bonus — no need to book, there's always space to enjoy a relaxed meal. Highly recommend! ”
“ Really happy with the food and service received. Ordered the Nasigoreng, Lounge Burger with Vegan cheese and back bacon on a glutin free bun and some onion rings and the vegan garlic flat bread. The Nasigoreng was amazing, with a decent kick from the chillies and the succulent prawns. The Loungue Burger was very juicy, tasty, and made to order. The staff were very accomidating for allergies which made the experiance great. The only negative I have was the vegan chocolate and raspberry torte being sold out, but I can't blame the restaurant for that as it seems so popular. All in all if you have allergies and are looking for a great place to dine, I would recommend giving this place a try. ”
“ Absolutely lovely experience, came in with my friend and had wonderful service from Amelia, Holly and Rin. Hot chocolates and food (tapas Tuesday) was wonderful and great value for money. Unfortunately, the atmosphere was disturbed by some extremely rude and aggressive customers that were whistling at the staff from across the restaurant and storming over to the bar creating a commotion. They even went as far as approaching a young member of staff and grabbing them by the wrists. Despite being shaken up, the staff handled this with the highest professionalism and once the customers had left - ensured the other customers (including us) were okay after the distribution and their experience wasn't negatively affected. ”
“ Great music great atmosphere, all the bar staff are bubbly lively and very helpful and quick. Had a quick natter to one of the chefs to commend them on a brilliant job with the breakfast muffins and offered a small critique (personal) preference and was met with a kind happy and positive attitude (they really set the bar for excellent staff quality here) Keep up the good job guys look forward to coming again soon ”
“ My husband and I stopped in for a bite before our daughters performance at the Theatre Royal Plymouth. I ordered tapas plus a few extras. Hubby ordered the Louisiana Chicken plate and said it was lovely. Service was amazing! I'm particular and wanted the Watermelon Iced tea without soda, as I don't like fizzy and the staff complied and I loved it. The tapas I ordered was so delicious! We definitely will be back as I want to try their other offers. ”
“ Great menu, friendly staff and fast service. I highly recommend the Nasi Goreng and Sri Lankan Curry ”
“ Came here twice in 2 days when visiting Plymouth recently. Really impressed with the huge gluten free menu which staff pointed out to us immediately on arrival - a really nice touch for them to offer this as standard. First night we came for food and had a lovely meal with my wife but unfortunately I was driving so couldn’t try the cocktails which was why we came back (via taxi) the next evening. Easy ordering via the app, and the staff were really friendly each time. An extensive menu and a great selection of quality drinks which were delivered quickly. It’s a lovely location too overlooking the water. Would definitely come back here again when in Plymouth - also want to say thank you to the waiter (bald chap with a goatee) who remembered we’d been in the day before, and also kindly took a picture of me and my wife - he was really friendly and little touches like being remembered really make you feel welcome to go back! Thank you. ”
