Adie says, “What we want is to create a community space where locals can relax for a chat, over a pint, and take part in a range of enjoyable activities, which will encourage friendship and shared experiences. We have music most Fridays and Saturdays, with a mixture of rock bands and acoustic solo and duos. We also have friendly and welcoming open mic nights on the first and third Sundays of the month.”
