Best place if you want to discover new indie bands on a Friday night! 6£ entry

Great gigs. Seems a family run business . But why are the all here hanging around bored? Red Wine is a finger thick below the mark. Demand your centi-liters! Bring your friends and y'all be fine.

Great music . Nice that the bar has tv screens and live feed for those that want to sit and chill .

Great place to pick up on; first hand; some new, potential talent on the circuit. Great relaxing, mature evening of great live sets. A refined worldly evening out.

Cheap gigs.

Bad service. Sit down for half an hour and no waiter to take order. Avoid!

The person who runs the place is horrible.
