As for dress code: It's a city centre venue on a Saturday evening. Please do make some sort of effort. The last thing we want is for people to get turned away at the door for having inappropriate clothing. By inappropriate I am referring to things such as board shorts and flip flops.

For guys, a smart t-shirt, jeans or trousers and a pair of smart trainers and shoes will be perfect. For ladies, well, I've never had an issue in all my years working in bars with a lady wearing inappropriate clothing (please don't be the first :) )

Here's a PDF with information about the venue, taxis, location etc: [[1]]
