It's a good bar, never had a problem there and always made welcome. All bars at risk of those people, and yes they are the scum of the earth. Challenge them every time. There is no excuses for carrying on like that in front of children and they make the rest of us look terrible, so challenge them every time.

What is so disapointing reading this thread is that the bar is getting the battering not the people who frequent it.  You get foul mouthed people from all countries the only difference is for the main part you have no idea they are swearing so it does not offend you. Brit establishments are not unique where language is concerned but so many people are acting as if Brit expats are the scum of the earth, give us a break please.

Nobody has said anything against the bar, my observation was the English Gents inside the bar thought it was acceptable to use the F word in front of my 8 year old, 12 year old and my Missus, Sorry but it's NOT

I frequent this bar on a daily basis , late afternoon and have never had any issues as encountered by the original poster.
The bar is well run by Spanish ladies and there is a good welcome for all nationalities. I am sorry you had a bad experience Lancashire lad but don't give up on it just yet

I gather it has really always been the Bar Colorados but just became known by the English as the Sprite bar because of a sign with Sprite lemonade there!

Through Los Carrascos, on out the Arroyo Aceituno for a few kms until you get to the hamlet of Los Colorados. The bar is there on the left, it used to be known as the Sprite Bar.

Not a clue where this bar is.

Maybe someone could educate us so we can avoid yet another "English" bar........

It was my first time at the bar as I have just bought a house near by. I will call in again no doubt.

i must admit no need when children are about.

not sure on that one as a could act as a warning to the kids,that if they dont try hard at school,they could spend the rst of there days around people with lower social skills F  ing & blinding,wich is fine in a workshop envoiroment but not so cleaver if yer having tea at Ramseys in London .

Same as the bar opposite Mercadona on the Lepanto road. Some nice people meet there but you can get the foul mouthed English there too. The same with the two bars on the Rambla front in Arboleas especially in summer months. Sat outside giving everyone a running commentary on how much money they have made, how much their property is worth, how they ripped people off and avoided paying their taxes over the years. Of course all carried out at the top of their voices, it makes you wonder if some people from a certain part of England know how to turn the volume down. When i have challenged the foul mouths i have been told its the language of "today" and get a life. As you say makes you proud to be English

Think the Bar is nice, Just unfortunately some of the UK clients should know better when ladies and Children are present, Perhaps I'm old fashioned or out of touch.

Never had a problem with this  good little bar its really come on since I first came here 5 years ago,the girls that run it now have done wonders with the food and service and it serves our little community here very well,i think in any bar anywhere in the world your going to get the odd few who have no consideration for other people that's life I am afraid,sometimes first impressions are not the true picture,

Totally with the above posts. Was filling up at a fuente and had all 5 spigots when a couple arrived. We vacated first one and then a second and with that the wife said 'thankyou'. 'Oh you're Brits' we exclaimed!!! There was an uncomfortable pause and then the husband exclaimed, 'we prefer people to think we are German'

Just thought I 'd Say what a pleasure it was to nip into the Bar on my recent visit. Thank you to the most obnoxious and foul mouthed 50 plus year old expats whose conversation in front of my Wife and 2 kids was full of expletives, these two should know better and they probably have their own Grand kids!
Thank fully we went to sit outside on the terrace to avoid their ramblings, Really does make you proud to be British .... Dos beers por favor!
