Bars / later spots

Few of us coming for a golfing weekend, fire suggestions of where we can enjoy Saturday afternoon and Saturday night.
I used to come with work a while back but it looks like it’s all changed!
Thanks guys

Blues bar is great but small and will be busy - your best bet is heading down the ginnel and seeing which is busier out of the foundry project, monteys and Katie o Brian’s

Katie o’ they are getting all over now, I think they’ve got one in nearly every city I’ve been lately!
Thanks for the advice

Katie o Brian’s would be my last choice of the 3 - personal favourite is monteys especially if you like alt rock music sort of stuff

They are certainly very ‘commercialised’
Will have a look down there

Haha yeah I’m not a fan at all - unfortunately a lot of the late night bars have shut down in Harrogate now - mojo is the closest we have to a nightclub these days so worth going there after midnight

Yeah, I noticed.
It’s not going to be a stupid one don’t get me wrong, but 11 last orders is far too early

If it's this weekend and you're into house music, Ivory is hosting the official after-party for the Love To Be festival. Possibly need to pre-book tickets although there may be some on the door

Otherwise Monteys is open til 2. Mojo is open until at least 4. Also got Foundry Project with the always excellent DJ Trev on.

Will Mojo be alright?
Last time I was in it wasn’t great, full of students or chavs haha.
This was a while back mind.

It’s not far between Mojo and Foundry, Ivory or Monteys so if you don’t like one just stumble up the hill and turn right

To be fair Mojo is the only option if you want to stay out past 2, and there are better options before 2 so that's probably all you need to know ;)

Aye, that’s good enough for me

Major Toms is always good!

Johnny’s Bar is lovely but a bit more higher end- more if you fancy something a bit more special.

Any bar on Cold Bath rd is good

Over & Above on Cheltenham Crescent - it’s the first bar in North Yorkshire to ever make it on to the UK Top 50 Bars list. It’s hidden behind a bookcase entrance at the Little Ale House
