Housed in a former shoe factory, this modern and stylish bar with exposed brick walls and Victorian steel columns is opposite the Royal & Derngate theatres. Pizzas, paninis and cheese boards are served whenever the bar is open and there is an outdoor seating area on the pavement for smokers. Theatre goers also receive a discount at the bar. No cask ale, but a choice of three bottled ales are available from the fridge.
