About this space

Studio48 Bar & Kitchen is an Americana-style cocktail bar characterised by intimate lounge areas and a music-led programme.

Design: The interior pairs warm, coloured lighting and wood panelling with patterned rugs and houseplants to form compact, lounge-style seating pockets. The furniture mixes low sofas and armchairs with a few high tables and bar seating and is finished with a neon sign and timber flooring.

Features: The venue includes a full cocktail bar and a kitchen serving an American-influenced menu that includes a separate gluten‑free option. The space is fitted with a PA system and speakers, Wi‑Fi and air conditioning; hosts may play their own music or bring a DJ and there is a karaoke setup. The bar runs happy-hour offers and weekend bottomless-brunch shifts.

Ideal for: Groups seeking a lively, social evening that mixes standing and lounge seating and prioritises drinks and music over formal dining.

What sets it apart: A heated, covered roof terrace provides sheltered outdoor seating and extends the usable space in cool or wet weather.

What guests say: The bar's cocktails are consistently tasty and the staff are friendly and responsive. The venue feels more spacious than it appears and generally provides prompt drink service on busy shifts.

FAQ

Yes, guests are very welcome to play their own music via the venue’s sound system at party-level volume.

Yes, the venue has a really good sound system, so it is not something to worry about.

A standard power supply is available and there are no unusual power restrictions. No truss rigs are permitted; floor-based rigs only are allowed, sound levels are monitored, private events are workable, and the venue is used to vinyl setups and professional DJ equipment.

Yes, furniture can be cleared.

It works best against one of the side walls away from the DJ or in a quieter corner, so guests can use it without blocking the flow. Once the layout is finalised, the venue can suggest the exact spot.
