Extremely unprofessional experience at Baaa Bar Dunedin. They advertised all week that the quiz would still be happening at 8pm after the Melbourne Cup, so one member of our team arrived around 6pm to save seats as usual. By 8pm, at least eight tables of students were seated and ready for the quiz. The Cup was already over, and most of us were just waiting for things to start. Then, out of nowhere, someone grabbed the mic and announced the quiz was cancelled because βpeople were having a good time,β followed by cheers from a couple of drunk patrons whoβd been there for the Cup and wanted to stay rowdy. The way the announcement was made, everyone assumed it was just a random drunk punter being disruptive. We were shocked to learn that this person was actually the co-owner, Christopher Hart. The other co-owners werenβt present, so the responsibility lies entirely with him. He then offered to buy a drink for everyone who was there for the quiz, but honestly, that felt more insulting than helpful. We didnβt come for a free drink β we came for the quiz, which was clearly advertised, expected, and prepared for. I want to make it clear that this wasnβt the staffβs fault at all β they looked just as blindsided and powerless as we were. But cancelling a promoted event at the last minute to please a few rowdy mates is incredibly unprofessional and disrespectful to loyal customers. If you canβt follow through on what you promote, donβt advertise it. Very disappointing. Do better, Baaa Bar.

Got in late to Dunedin, and we were starving. Came across the Baaa Sports Bar & Grill and so glad we chose to eat here. The Rib Eye Steak and Chicken Parmy were delicious. Loved the choice of sides. Even though the kitchen was due to close in 15 mins they were happy to serve us.

Popped in for a drink. Loved the staff, they were friendly and efficient. The bar and toilets were really clean and tidy. If sports is your thing, you've got it all on the screens here. We didn't have a meal but there were plenty of people chowing down and it all smelt good!

Good place to pop in and get a draught and something to eat. Friendly waitstaff. I was intrigued by the idea of sweet potato/cheddar bites and they didn't disappoint. Menu changes but the attached gives you an idea.

Had the open sandwiches from the lunch menu. Steak was quiet chewy and a bit hard to eat. That said the chips tasted great and we were served by a very friendly employee.
