Amazing staff, amazing music and amazing service. If you’re looking for a live club this is the one. Want to go out on but don’t have much money? Come on Fridays pints between £2-£3, single drinks £2.50 all night!!!
Really good bar and particularly good for any sports lovers. I have often visited on Friday night with friends and have always had a good Evening so would definitely recommend it. A particular shoutout to Brannoc as well for always being so friendly whenever I have been and for his hard work and dedication

Overall a great place to visit! The bar staff are lovely, welcoming and friendly. The food is good. Sadly, the last time I visited a young woman was quite intoxicated and quietly resting with friends, whilst they waited for her mum to collect her. The security staff were very kind and understanding, saw the messages and agreed to allow 5 minutes for her arrival. However, the manager refused and much to everyone's dismay, threw the woman out. This is disgusting behaviour and not for the benefit of anyone, especially not the safety of the woman, who was around 18-20 years old! Because of this, I've marked the venue down to 3. I would seriously reconsider your choice of security manager.
Fantastic atmosphere, great music. Highly recommend
I visited The Walkabout for the first time to watch rugby and celebrate a friend's birthday! The staff were very attentive, regularly checking in on us and clearing empty glasses. They offer a great variety of drinks and the Chicken Wings were delicious. I highly recommend this place and will definitely be coming back. Thank you for a wonderful afternoon!! :)
The service was a bit slow, but the atmosphere was good and they had a great selection of drinks. Plus, there wasn't a single Australian in sight despite the name, which was a nice bonus!
I visit this restaurant frequently and absolutely love it!
