The Sindercombe Social: Pub in Shepherd's Bush, London

The Sindercombe Social sits in W12, and it runs like a place that wants people to join in. Karaoke is a regular fixture, along with open mic nights, live music and club nights that lean towards pop and dance. Expect a crowd that came to sing badly and dance anyway. Groups of friends, first-timers and regulars mix without much fuss. The room suits a night where the plan is to get up, try something and see who else does. If you like an evening that starts with a drink and ends with a song nobody planned, this is the kind of venue to keep in mind. Check the listings below, then pick the night that matches your mood.
