Venue Visitors Can Chill Out In Warm Garden

A Coventry nightclub will be branching out on a £500,000 expansion after it received permission to add a heated beer garden.

The all-weather area will be built at The Venue in Lower Holyhead Road in Spon End.

Councillors have recently given permission for an extension to go ahead despite fears from neighbours that it would alter the character of historic Spon Street.

Venue manager Stephen Beck said the new facilities and the face-lift would be one of the most exciting developments in the area.

He said:

“We want to continue in attracting a wide range of customers to our bars and beer garden.

“We have already gained the reputation of being the friendliest bar in ton. It will be the place where people want to be seen.”

Work on the extension, which will also include a bar-restaurant, is to start shortly.

Mr Beck added:

“We will shortly make our beer-garden into an all-weather heated area where people can enjoy the open air without fear of the English climate.”

Last year The Venue opened as a jazz bar, but was forced to change to a more popular playlist as numbers dwindled.
