About this space

The Main Bar & Back Bar is a Bar in The Minories, defined by a long brick barrel‑vaulted ceiling that gives the interior a low, arched profile.

Design: The space pairs dark timber bars and high‑back booth seating with a stone‑tiled floor and a raised back‑bar platform. The layout is narrow and linear, divided into bays that create semi‑private seating pockets under warm, low lighting.

Features: The bar provides a long service counter and a separate back‑bar area while showing sport on large screens and supporting table ordering via app or website. The room includes an in‑house PA and speaker system, allows own music and external DJs, and has Wi‑Fi and air conditioning.

Ideal for: Groups of friends or colleagues seeking a relaxed, social standing reception or an informal seated meal in a lively, unpolished pub setting.

What guests say: The space presents an authentic, unpolished pub character rather than a polished, Instagram‑led fitout. The bar's service pace is relaxed and staff are consistently welcoming.

The staff could not have been more helpful. The venue is perfect, with a great outdoor space and also a lovely, private indoor space. Our entire group was very happy indeed. We will be returning next year! Thank you!
