The Star In Shoreditch

Free Hire Friday - Book a space or one of our functions rooms any Friday in January or February with no hire fee. Minimum booking number applies. Subject to availability.

The Star In Shoreditch is a rowdy joint that totes classic interiors and live bands alike. From the cheap main bar with magazine-plastered walls and animal skull chandeliers, to the basement gig venue for bands and DJs alike, the bar retains the cool air of rock 'n' roll from its home in Shoreditch.

The Victoria

A charming local boozer in Dalston, The Victoria is famed for its live music programme that showcases the city's best rock talent. Owned and operated by Jaguar Shoes, the pub rounds its nights off nicely with an array of classic cocktails, locally brewed beer and more behind the bar.
