March 2025Lovely venue, not too expensive with the drinks. Only downside is the trips up and down stairs for the toilets!

March 2025Excellent gig, Chloe Quisha (Olivia Rebel in support) at The Lodge. Tiny stage but great vibe. Security and bar staff lovely!

March 2025Great Place and helpful. I'm a mobility scooter user and contacted the venue a few months before when I got the tickets and they were very helpful. There are stairs inside the venue so not ideal if you can't use stairs but if you have some mobility just take your time. When I arrived I was helped inside the venue and they had reserved seating at the back of the venue with a really good view of the stage. The security were amazing and carried my scooter to the office downstairs and charged the battery for me aswell. I haven't rated the food as I didn't eat there. 😄
