We continued our post-wedding celebrations by hiring out the basement for Karaoke after our reception. Highly recommend! A hidden gem. Warm and friendly staff, was super easy to book and organise. The space itself is perfect…air conditioned, great audio system and lights. Thanks Ben and team!

Sometimes only a good roast will do. This was a good and generous roast in a lovely atmospheric old boozer.
