By day, The 'Cellar is a light, open plan bar with a relaxing background of cool jazz or sweet soul music to compliment our freshly prepared food and extensive selection of wines and imported beers. Friday and Saturday nights, the 'Cellar is transformed, with an intense atmosphere created by some of the UK's top dance floor Jazz/ Funk/ Soul/ Rare Groove, Boogaloo bands and MCs. Why not bring your own Event to the Cellar!?! and other corporate events or conferences. We have many years successful experience with Parties, Gigs, Wedding Receptions, Meetings et al. We have a capacity in the Main room for 110 guests and in the Cellar Bar for 100 guests, a full PA system which is operated by our experienced sound technicians and Fully Licensed Bars on both floors. We will supply a Licensed SIA security supervisor for the night and our available opening hours are: 12am – 2am, Sunday thru Thursday, (Friday and Saturday, 12am – 8pm). Weekend Nights are available for hire in the Loft. For these ‘very popular’ nights we have arranged a very special deal… For a totally private hire on these nights the cost to our guests would be extremely high, so we have arranged for you to hire our venue on Friday & Saturday evenings from 7pm – 10.30pm. From 10.30pm – 2am all your guests are welcome to stay and party, however, we open the Loft to our other guests. This guarantees all your guests get into the Venue and allows them the freedom to enjoy the entertainment on both floors for the whole night. We have been running these nights for over three years now to great acclaim. We have many DJ’s / Bands on our books which we will arrange for your event, if required and can supply DJ equipment, Microphones etc to hire for extremely competitive rates.
