About this space

Public Bar is a Bar in Ludlow Bar that opens directly onto the venue's large beer garden terrace, giving the room an immediate indoor–outdoor connection.

Design: The interior pairs industrial-high ceilings and exposed services with dark chevron timber panelling and metal accents. The floor uses patterned tile insets against timber boarding, and geometric pendant lights provide focused overhead illumination.

Features: The space includes an in-house service bar, a built-in PA system and speakers, and flexible high-top tables with stools that can be rearranged for different layouts. The room provides Wi‑Fi, air conditioning, a step-free guest entrance and accessible toilets. The layout supports both open-plan standing arrangements and organised seated layouts.

Ideal for: Social groups and workplace teams seeking a relaxed, informal space that accommodates a mix of standing socialising and seated dining.

What guests say: The space has an ambient, low-lit atmosphere and considered decor. The space provides attentive, present service during visits.
