Venn Street Records

Venn Street Records is a cool hangout spot, one of the top bars in the Clapham area. The venue puts great stock in music, in both the decor and its live programming. Located next to the Clapham Picturehouse, just down the road from Clapham Common, Venn Street Records is a haven for music lovers, social drinkers, party people and hip crowds alike. The bar's exposed brick walls are papered over with old music magazine spreads proclaiming their allegiance to all-time music greats such as The Who or Elvis Presley. Combined with dim lighting, neon signage and leather seating, the overall effect is that of a happening hotspot where you might just catch the next big thing before they start conquering the streaming charts. The first of several Records Bar venues also has a terrace on Venn Street where you can soak up the urban vibes.

Behind the bar at Venn Street Records you'll find a selection of cocktails such as Elderflower Fizz, Porn Star Martini or Bacardi Mojito, as well as imported beers, red, white and pink wines, prosecco and more. The daily happy hour offer lasts three hours and includes 2-for-1 cocktails, with other promotional deals available as well. If you're feeling hungry, you can snack on a pizzette with classic toppings such as Margherita or Quattro Formaggi.

As mentioned, Venn Street Records places an emphasis on live music, with its stage regularly graced by local talent, up-and-coming acts and fresh DJs. The music policy is wide-ranging and includes everything from jazz and Motown to rock and pop – the main criterion is that it keeps the good times going.
