The bar is an all-day dining experience open for brunch, lunch and dinner, and offers our guests freshly prepared contemporary food. Locally brewed beers and spirits to handmade cocktails, fringe theatre/Comedy Club to Gin Tasting, to live bands to party with!

The Theatre is a revival of the building’s history former Arts Cinema from 1933 trading as the Cosmopolitan Cinema. Our Black Box Theatre located on the top floor of the venue is a wonderfully intimate fringe theatre with an abundance of shows and experiences from the moment we open the doors.
