Description
|
A one-off and certainly close to being the finest pub in England, this jazz bar combines amazing decor, with jazz antiques and memorabilia perfectly complimenting a beautifully ageing wood fit bunker-like pub with bench seating and carpets. Live performances feature almost daily, with tips + raffle surcharge to pay for those. N.B: Bring hard cash as they don’t accept cards. Along with the likes of Yorckschlosschen, Papa Joe’s and Bohemian Jazz Café, England has a Jazz Bar worthy of renown anywhere in Europe. Visit at once. (Added August 2021)
