My friend introduced me to this place as he knew I love Squeeze & one half, Chris Difford was doing a gig there. Towards the right of the bar is a door taking you to The Barn & toilets (no disabled facilities hence only 4 stars). Once through the door, via the ticket booth & hand stamped u enter a room with a bar, & fully equipped stage. There were rows of seats & you were free to sit where u liked..obvious my friend & I were earlier enough to bag front row & you cannot stretch your leg out without touching the stage. It felt very intimate. It's a low stage so standing at the gig is really not an option otherwise if you were unfortunate to be at the back you would not be able to see. The concert itself....WOW. Supported by Arcalia a 3 piece band who came on for half an hr & sang songs from their current album. Chris came on after and gave us a whistle stop speech of his life in and out of Squeeze including a variety of their hits along the way. Chris's humour is infectious & there was plenty of audience interaction to keep u fully entertained. I absolutely loved it & would definitely recommend a visit here if you love the up close & personal experience
It's a great place for live music, the staff are friendly and we were made to feel very welcome. I am disabled and they kindly helped me out when I was getting tired, found me a comfortable place to sit and I could still enjoy the music. Thank you so much. The reason for 4 stars, not 5,is purely because there isn't suitable access to the toilets for disabled people. If that was sorted then a definite 5 star rating.
A great live music venue
So friendly, bangin drinks, great atmosphere despite the covid precautions- loved it
