Long Live Live Music!
This classic 150 capacity, no-frills décor venue is steeped in musical history. It is an authentic retro music venue full of musical memorabilia. Open seven nights a week with live music every night, its a music lovers paradise. There is a large standing area in front of a good sized stage, which encourages intimate interaction with performers. In addition to the main area, there’s a seperate small black and white themed bar that gives people a chance to chat in a quieter retreat. This also leads to a small outside smoking area. With low entry prices combined with a late bar (2am), and the cheapest drinks in the area, this all helps to make it a brilliant night out in Londons’ music hub.
