Adventure bar - East Dulwich (Lounged when no longer about same)


Recommended Posts

There's an adventure cafe & bar in Bath. Bloody adventure getting a drink in there I can tell you. Is it the same chain as this one? Theres no mention of Bath on their website. I don't think they should have a happy hour they should have a miserable hour when all us forumites can go in and have a good moan about everything. Can you have a good moan or is that an oxymoron??

Hi everyone


Thanks for your interest in our new bar. We have almost finished the extension now and are starting the internal structure. We are still aiming to be open at the end of August and I will give out more details nearer the time.


Just to answer your questions, firstly, our music is played and chosen by us. We don't have play lists, every day is different. I couldn't list every band on the website but we play a mixture of rock, indie, disco, dance and soul. The thing we concentrate on is making sure everybody has a good time. Our staff are very good at this. They are all full time professional bartenders.


Secondly, we don't have a bar in Bath (yet). Our website is going to be updated with a new East Dulwich page this weekend so you should be able to find it through Google then.


If you have any questions over the next few weeks, I'd be more than happy to answer them.


Thanks

inside 72 was the only bar i'd been in where i heard 'at the drive in' being played...


looks like the adventure playlist is designed to attract the sort of character that thinks having a kaiser chiefs cd in their audi TT is cool


birkenstocks to the lot of 'em

music can be shut out of the high street and therefore chosen not to be heard, the outside design and type cannot. it is there for all to see and as i have voiced before the design of this place is bad, uninspiring and flat. sorry but one thing i will say for inside 72 was the sign looked good.
i am sure that the cocktails will be fine and music better than compared to, say, oh i don't know, KFC or the back of a 176 up to town. but it just looks soulless, and that's from their own shots on the net. there's no personal touches in there...
Christ alive, lets not mince words, everything about this place looks f*cking dreary. I was depressed when I72 shut and am even more depressed that this shower have got hold of the keys. 'Like yah, when i got back from travelling right, i got a 5% stake in this chain of wicked bars with toby. we are opening one in East Dulwich, which is like so totally up-and-coming. The next clapham right' Arrrrrrgggggggghhhhhhhhh, i guess it will keep the hoxton-finned cnuts in foxtons away from the rest of us.

I had a drink in Inside 72 a couple of weeks before it shut. It was empty. Yes, many of us liked that little bar, but quite clearly it wasn't popular enough to survive.


It just goes to show that you really need to support your favorite local businesses, especially if they're a little less "mainstream".

It had plenty of support and was always full on the weekends and later in the evening. They didn?t close because of lack of business they just decided it was time to move on.


On in this case being out of London I think.


Although I?m sure +Venture are going to have plenty of support as well. Just of a different kind.

Funny this thread should pop-up as I had a nosey through their window this morning. Looks like they're making progress.


I hope so, because I was looking/hoping for a job there. I've been working at Firefly in Clapham and am tired of taking a 3am bus home with the resident drunk and druggies (of course I am always a model of composure when I get drunk in Clapham and catch the 37!) >:D<


I can give/make some great cocktails James.


My latest fave is an After Eight Martini :)-D

    • There is a large amount fresh veg available in the green book cage outside the copleston church,sprouts,spring onions,potatoes,parsnips and bread rolls,pop down shame to see it get wasted          
    • On the original topic - there was more of this on Whateley Road today. Same place but the other side of the road. Could be the same dogwalker as for the other nearby roads?   I don't have a dog - but would have thought it's hard for owners not to notice when a dog is doing it in the middle of a pavement? 
    • Thought I’d take a trip down to Rye Lane this morning to visit the charity shops etc. I usually park in the Morrisons car park and buy stuff there and then the nearby shops. I know there are a few shops near the Aylesham centre that are having to close (Boots the chemist was a shoplifters favourite over the years) but I was shocked to see the extent of shop closures, graffiti, overall decline in the area.  Sometimes I get the bus and wanted to visit the Crises charity shop but it didn’t open until 10.30am and it had a coffee place inside. They have a shop in Rye Lane but are missing out on early rising customers. Walking down towards Santendar and the Primark store was very empty.Just hope that isn’t due for closure. The security guards are very nonchalant. The Scope charity shop has a prime position but doesn’t promote the shop Greggs have done away with their self service due to the number of thefts of food items.  The Poundland was quite empty too but I visit this one as they have stock since the Camberwell one closed down.         
    • Maybe I'm behind the times, but in the old days if you went to a pub for charity fundraiser you'd have a quiz or karaoke and you'd be chipping in for a new scanner at your local hospital or maybe sending some poor kiddie for some cancer treatment abroad. Nowadays you can roll down to the Old Nun's head in Nunhead and tip your money into a bucket for some sad young woman to go a private surgeon and have her breasts sliced off -  as if that was going to be some kind of life-saving treatment!  Not only that, she's publicising her Valentine's crowdfunder with a funny ha ha (not) cartoon of a girl (see pic) with a hypodermic in her bum and calling it 'Valen-Tits-off'. Jesus wept. Whatever happened to hearts and flowers? It's so unbelievably sick. I'm a woman, I've pretty much still got all the woman-bits intact. Periods and puberty weren't much fun, I was bullied at school, wondered about my sexuality and boys and spots and the rest of it, got called a lezzer by the class cow, but I got through it. And I would no more think that cutting bits off a girl was the solution to her misery than I would put my teenage daughter on a diet if she was diagnosed with anorexia. I can't be the only person who finds the pub - and its publicity material - very VERY offensive?
