FOMO Fridays

Your group chat said “quiet one tonight.” We all know how that ends. Welcome to FOMO Fridays — the weekly Friday night chaos where the tunes are questionable, the dance moves are regrettable, and somehow you’re still ordering “just one more” at 2:47am. Here’s the damage: £3 selected drinks (because budgeting is important) Selected double spirit & mixers from £5.50 Free entry before 11pm — arrive fashionably early for once Confetti blasts flying about like you’ve won a reality TV final Giveaways throughout the night Open until 4am for the committed, the chaotic, and those who missed the last train Whether you’re celebrating, commiserating, or simply avoiding staying in and watching three episodes of the same series again, FOMO Fridays has your Friday night sorted. Get down early. Your camera roll will regret it later.

Guided Bike Repairs with Cycling UK's Big Bike Revival

Bring your bike along and work with our mechanics on the 1st Saturday of the month. Thanks to a grant from Cycling UK we’re able to provide small parts free of charge and a mechanic will talk you through the steps. Ideal for someone who wants to get their hands dirty (we do have gloves don’t worry) but wants that little reassurance they’re doing it right.
