Baskerville's

Underground Bar & Gin Lounge in Bury St. Edmunds, Suffolk

01/08/2024

// OVER & OUT //

To all of our guests, near and far… this one’s for you.

Baskerville’s has been many things over the last few years, a place to catch up with those nearest, a venue to party the night away but most of all a place where hand-crafted cocktails, perfectly picked wines and locally brewed beers come together.

From early beginnings as a vegan café by day and cocktail lounge by night to the place it has become in recent years, we’re sad to say goodbye but so proud to have called Baskerville’s ‘home’.

We’re off on a new adventure come the end of August but until then, stop by and drink up. There’s still plenty of your favourite tipples behind the bar…

🖤

// SUMMER VIBES //

Can you feel that heat?🥵

Some may say it’s the perfect weather for a drink or two…

Are you more of a floral fan? Perhaps something with a citrus tang?

Well, we’ve got all you need. Come on down Fridays & Saturdays from 6pm to get your fix.

// DRINK TO THAT //

As you’ll likely know by now, we’ll be saying goodbye to Baskerville’s at the end of August as we prepare for a new chapter ahead…

But instead of feeling down, we’re going out with a BANG💥

In fact, we’ve got our final SOLD OUT events coming up in the next few weeks which are set to be a real knees up. For those who have missed out, the bar will be open Fridays & Saturdays from 6:00pm so you can come and get your Baskerville’s fix.

Come down and help us celebrate all that’s been🍾

// TIME TO FLY //

Some of you may have seen the exciting news that another local business is set to take over our beautiful bar after the summer…

After 4 years of hand-crafting beautiful cocktails, hosting evenings of entertainment and of course meeting so many wonderful people along the way, we’ve made the decision to write a new chapter and hang up our hospitality hat for a little while.

We felt it would be best to go out with a real bang this summer before embarking on an exciting new journey and so we’d like to take a moment to say a huge THANK YOU to each and every guest that’s passed over our threshold, it has been an absolute pleasure.

The good news is that Baskerville’s will very much be pouring your favourite tipples and hosting some fabulous events over the next couple of months. We can’t wait to see you!

We will be here until 30th August, so come on down. For those that want to give Baskerville's a send off, Chamonix Aspen will be here for our final knees up.
