About this space

XP Tavern is a contemporary lounge for private gatherings. Its character comes from a social layout and a polished, gaming-inspired interior.

Design: Dark ceilings and navy upholstery create a focused, modern interior. Angular wall panels contrast with metallic gold detailing and low directional lighting.

Features: A central bar supports drinks service. A dance floor, PA system and speakers support music-led gatherings, while hosts can play their own music or bring a DJ. Wi-Fi, air conditioning, accessible toilets and a step-free entrance are available; noise restrictions apply.

Ideal for: The venue suits sociable groups looking for an informal, music-led gathering in a contemporary lounge setting.

What sets it apart: A large sculptural game controller forms the focal point above the bar, giving the venue a clear gaming identity.
