Casa Iguanas is praised for its vibrant atmosphere and consistently good cocktails, with a standout feature being its happy hour and 2-for-1 drink deals that attract patrons seeking value. The bar's music selection and occasional DJ sets contribute to an enjoyable and lively ambiance, although some guests have noted that the volume can be a bit overwhelming for conversation. Service is friendly and skilled, but the limited number of staff often leads to longer wait times during busy periods. Some visitors have also mentioned occasional issues with unpleasant odors in the venue. Overall, Casa Iguanas offers a fun and affordable spot for drinks and tapas, with room for improvements in service efficiency and ambiance control.

This bar has a permanent happy hour offering very cheap cocktails and also plays great music. It doesn't seem to get as many visitors as it should, but at least that means you can basically always get a table. Tapas is also served from the Las Iguanas kitchen.

Nice drinks but they should consider turning the music volume down; could barely hear anyone I was with. May just be my hearing but I don't have the problem anywhere else.

The 2 for 1 cocktails deal is great to get a few in, and the barman was on point with his skills. The main drawback is the time it takes to get served given only one person working there. Also, there was a strong waft of toilet smell when we were there...

Great cocktails, cool staff, usually some good tunes when the DJ is around. Lovely atmosphere. Happy hour all day, everyday

Good cocktails. It is small and usually only 1 or 2 bar staff so could be waiting a while to get drinks depending on how busy it is.

Great drink deals, including 2-4-1 cocktails all the time. DJs on Tuesdays and Fridays, great atmosphere whether it's quiet or busy!

We came here for a recent get together with some good friends. Cocktails were tasty and good value for money on the 2 for 1 deal and I was also pleasantly surprised by the beer selection. Staff were very friendly and happy to make suggestions for drinks. Have also previously visited here for pre and post dinner drinks for the Last Iguanas restaurant upstairs. If you have pre-dinner drinks, they are happy for you to take drinks upstairs once your table is ready.
