About this space

Basement Bar is a Function Room in The Sun and 13 Cantons and a self-contained basement space that sits separately from the pub's ground-floor trading area.

Design: The space pairs timber flooring and leather banquettes with teal-tiled panels, mirrors and framed prints, producing a compact, polished pub-room interior lit by wall lamps and low ambient lighting.

Features: The basement bar contains its own counter-style bar and a cleared area commonly used as a dancefloor, plus a wall-mounted screen used for karaoke. The space allows external DJs and private music, includes venue Wi‑Fi, and has a private exit for smokers.

Ideal for: Social groups seeking a lively, music-led standing reception with informal seating and room to dance.

What guests say: The basement bar has hosted karaoke nights and provides a private bar, a dancefloor area and a karaoke screen, giving it an enclosed, party-friendly feel.
