About Boogaloo
Rock 'n' roll bar with an eclectic line-up, jukebox, courtyard stables and Saturday vintage market.
Jan 2023 - reported as having no cask beer. Feb 2023 Landlord on sale - perhaps best to say that cask beer is on sale but not always? Our reporter comments as follows, "I think it might be the case that they only have the one on at any time - so if the barrel runs out, they don't put a new barrel on straight away, so it looks as though they never serve any."
The Boogaloo has been a gathering place, a watering place, a music hall place, a dancing place, the host of art happenings and literary events, the inspiration for a song or two and a discreet place for a rockstar, an elegant lady or a man of the cloth to have a quiet drink amid the chaos while the crazy world spins. Or so they say. Live music, DJ’s, markets and parties. Juke box. This pub was originally called the Birkbeck [Tavern] - the name can still be seen in mosaic tiling to the entrance step.
Happy Hour Thurs & Fri: 5pm – 7pm.

Good honest pub with a limited food menu. Selection of beers and usual stuff. Not sure if they do guest ales. Has a beer garden. Seems to have plenty of live events from comedy to music and queer events. Eclectic furniture and decoration. Give it a go. The men's loos are very narrow....could be challenging after a few beers 😀.

I checked out the boogaloo pub today and it looks promising. Something on everyday according to the posters in the window. As it was midday I did not go in this time but will certainly return.

Such a friendly local pub with brilliant atmosphere, great decor and fabulous food. The place turns into more of a club on Friday and Saturday nights with a very funky and welcoming vibe. They also have a great garden in the back which is perfect to enjoy a drink (and take a peek at the 24/7 radio broadcasting from one of the back rooms!)

I'm typing this from inside of this establishment, This is my second visit (both day time) Literally, I walked in straightforward to the bar, and I was served by a young polite gentleman. After I ordered my pint, he asked me if I would like to have anything else? I answered by YES I feel peckish and would like to order a burger as well, and then he was politely responded IM SORRY OUR KITCHEN IS CLOSED UNTIL 4OCLOCK! Then I responded to him " That's fine, not a problem at all," But ...a young woman she was having her lunch and drink at the same time? Time: 15:15 Date :16/12/3023 By the end…
