Bethnal Green Workingmen's Club: Pub in London

Bethnal Green Workingmen's Club is a room that doesn't stay in one lane. Some nights bring a sharp, strange piece of theatre. Others bring a tribute night where the whole room knows the words. That mix is the point. The programme leans towards performance and music that doesn't take itself too seriously, so you get clever work next to pop nights built for dancing. Food is part of the picture too. Come early, eat, then stay on for whatever comes next. The crowd tends to be locals and regulars of the scene, people who know what they like and enjoy being caught off guard. Go with an open head and you'll have a better night. It sits in E2 6NB.
