About this space

The Cocktail Lounge is a private cocktail lounge in Studio48 Bar & Kitchen, a compact retro-styled snug arranged for intimate drink gatherings and small-group socialising.

Design: The room pairs warm coral-painted walls and vertical wood panelling with mid-century wire-frame chairs, a patterned rug and low metal tables to create a compact, casual sitting area. The lighting is soft and low, and the fittings include patterned upholstery, wall art and scattered plants.

Features: The room has a built-in PA system and speakers and permits guests to play their own music. The room includes Wi‑Fi and informal lounge seating grouped around low tables suitable for drinks and conversation.

Ideal for: Small groups seeking a relaxed, social drinks-focused gathering that mixes seated conversation and light mingling.

What guests say: The cocktail lounge is cute and feels more spacious than it appears. The space features lively music that supports a social atmosphere.

Baby Shower · 15 guests · March 2026
Honestly I was extremely disappointed with the whole experience and venue. Firstly it’s very run down with broken tiles and very dirty floors and chairs. They had left the rubbish there from the previous people, and it was very cold. We had a buffet package which was meant to be enough for 15 people. The food provided was very bad, not enough and everyone left extremely hungry. I was very embarrassed, a jug of lemonade was £15 and they tried to add on £28 service fee. It’s definitely not like the pictures and I wouldn’t return or recommend to friends or family.

The venue location
It has almost been 2 months and I have yet to receive my deposit back. On the night, the staff were unable to track guests' transactions for the minimum spend and insisted that we do one payment at the end. The venue was also advertised as being able to play our own music via Bluetooth which was turned out to be false.
