About this space

For a traditional feel, hire out the Lounge Bar @ The Bear for your next event.

Located in the basement of The Bear — a Victorian pub serving local brews to fresh fruit cocktails — the Lounge Bar features booth seating, mood lighting, and an after-hours setting.

The space holds up to 160 guests. We offer a buffet including our pizza menu alongside a full drinks offering.

This basement bar features its own private bar and toilets. With several bookable sections or the option to hire the entire floor, it works for parties, celebrations, or corporate events.
