Dress Code and Reservations

While we encourage you to express yourself through your clothing, please do make an effort.

On occasion, tracksuits or certain types of sportswear may be turned away. Dress to impress to avoid disappointment at the door! Wear something that makes you feel fabulous and flamboyant - or simply whatever makes you happy.

We are happy to reserve seating for your group with sufficient notice.

Contact us with your booking requests.

Private Events and Filming

Looking for a unique venue for a private event? Our space is available for hire at reasonable rates on nights we are closed, and for pre-parties on nights we are open. We are also happy to discuss availability as a location set for film and media production.

Please be respectful of others during your event or filming.

Accessibility

We welcome disabled people and wheelchair users whenever possible. We are working to improve accessibility to all areas of the venue.
