What a lovely evening of poetry at socialbar last night📖

A big thank you to everyone who came along and to our guest reader, poet and author Ian Patterson. A particularly nice full-circle moment too, as our Book Club have previously read one of Ian’s books.

Plenty of words, good company and a very lovely crowd. Thanks for spending your Tuesday evening with us 🫶

We’ve been playing around in the kitchen 👩‍🍳

Over the last few weeks, we’ve been testing, tasting and tweaking some ideas for our new evening small plates. Here are a few things that came out of the kitchen along the way. FYI - they tasted amazing!

We’re making a little more of an evening of it at socialbar, with our small plates offering — a reason to stay for dinner. Thursday, Friday & Saturday evenings.

There’s more to come… 👀

On Friday 25 September, we’re launching our new seasonal small plates menu alongside the George Mooney Trio. Choose three dishes, settle in with a glass of w**e and enjoy a relaxed evening of food, music and good company.

Meet. Hear. is back.

After a little summer break, Katherine van Haeften returns to socialbar for another evening of listening, connection and community.

This small-group workshop is about something deceptively simple: really listening to the people around us. No advice-giving, no fixing, just giving someone your full attention and having the space to be heard in return.

It’s free to attend, but places are limited and booking is essential. Email us or pop in to socialbar to book your place 🫶

Games Night is back next Wednesday 🃏

We know a midweek evening in autumn can make staying in after work very tempting. But we’ll be cosy too, with a stack of games, lovely people, drinks and snacks at the ready.

Meet this month’s sandwiches, presented with the sort of professionalism we’ve come to expect from Anna 🫶

First up, The Deli: mortadella with pistachios, smoked sheep’s cheese, mustard aioli and fresh greens.

Then there’s Cool as a Cucumber 🌿: dill-marinated cucumber, herby cream cheese, crispy onion and fresh greens.

Made here, served here, and very much ready for your lunch break. Pop in and pick your side.

Poetry Night is back at socialbar next Tuesday, and we’d love to see you there. We’ve got an evening of contemporary poetry lined up with Tamar Yoseloff of Poetry in Aldeburgh, guest reader Ian Patterson and an open mic for anyone who fancies getting involved.

Come along, grab a drink, listen to some lovely words and spend the evening with good people.

Whether you’re here to read, listen or just see what it’s all about, you’ll be very welcome 🫶
