What it’s like
A late-night bar and party venue for the over-18s, open Friday and Saturday until 4am with VIP booths for birthdays and hen dos.
This one's strictly for the grown-ups. It's an adults-only bar with the doors staying open properly late, so it suits a night out rather than a day out with the kids in tow.
Friday runs from 10pm to 4am and Saturday opens earlier at 6:30pm, also running through to 4am. It's shut the rest of the week, so this is a weekend-only plan, and the late start on both nights means it works best as the second stop of the evening rather than the first.
If you're organising a birthday or a hen do, there are party packages with a VIP booth and drinks packages, plus the venue mentions birthday vouchers. Sign up to their newsletter, the Pop Gang, and they say you get a free £25 bar tab for your birthday, which is a decent nudge to book something around that date. There's food available on site and an accessible toilet, and you don't need to book ahead unless you want the VIP treatment.
