Located in the Plaza Arcade, T Bar is a mini-shop selling a cool selection of male and female T-shirts, especially nice for men. The style is a bit rocky and dark with some hints of humour and whimsicality, and very eye catching. However, the designs are never edgy, innovative, or too varied in style, the motifs somewhat mainstream, but cool enough to bring you there and not to other shops. The good thing is that some illustrators contribute to the prints, and that the prints change quite often.

The quality of the cotton is just OK, and it does not justify the 40 bucks for a full-priced item. Yo can save money by buying two or three items, which are marketed cheaper,  but you might meed just one! I usually go there to buy gifts and I put up with their price, but it is still unjustified. To be fair, sometimes I have also found cool tees in their discount racks and they are around 20 bucks. So it is a matter of being lucky when you visit.

The staff are always very helpful and friendly. I always make them try the shirts I buy for sizing and styling purposes.

T Bar's space is tiny, a little corner really, so you will not need to move much: roll your eyes, twist your neck, manoeuvre your elbows and buttocks with precision and voilà, you've finished your shopping experience!

They sell their stuff through their website, too.
