Great venue. Buzzing atmosphere. They play great music videos. Very smart function room adjoining main bar area and also a cosy "chill out" area. Lots of live music on offer.
Always A good night guaranteed good acts and great times
Lovely little pub with friendly staff and good music
A return visit for me and the lads from Pac Band and another great night of rock. A fabulous, welcoming audience with lots of nice comments. Bar staff were brilliant and kept the customers satisfied all night long.
Very good entertainment for the ancient art of karaoke. , unfortunately, I am mentally disabled and found I could not pay for a drink even after transferring money to my current account by card. People very friendly, but made to wait at bar for a very long time whilst my vulnerable partner got more and more anxious waiting in an outdoor smoking area. Overall... Good for karaoke and atmosphere but terrible for someone who is light sensitive, but very technically savvy, clean, caring and prejudged as being drunk, and let down by their none contact less card machines.
