About this space

The Retreat is a neighbourhood pub whose defining quality is a flexible, casual interior that accommodates relaxed dining and small live-music or social events.

Design: The venue pairs timber floors and exposed brick with mixed bench and chair seating, skylights and pendant lights that create a compact, well‑lit interior. The layout reads as a single adaptable room with booth seating along the walls and an open central area.

Features: An open-plan ground floor includes a PA system and speakers, a marked dance area and permission to play your own music or bring a DJ. The venue also provides Wi‑Fi, plentiful natural light from skylights, a step‑free guest entrance, wheelchair-accessible circulation and accessible toilets.

Ideal for: Groups seeking a relaxed, social evening that combines seated dining and standing mingling, including small live‑music or performance-style gatherings.

What sets it apart: A private beer garden and patio provide dedicated outdoor space for guests.

What guests say: The venue is cosy and welcoming, supported by friendly, attentive staff. The venue is pet-friendly and includes an open fire in the bar area.
