Calling it a bar is generous. It's a small area where people can stand and chat. Cabin crew lays out some fruit and occasionally candy (Godiva chocolates). Sometimes they'll leave a bottle of champagne in an ice bucket with glasses on a tray; but no way is it a bar, lounge, or anything similar. Contrast with the bar/lounge area in the 380. For the most part, people don't congregate there to chat except when waiting for a lavatory.

I wouldn't take either. I'd look at row 8.
