Revolution is a cocktail bar which opened its doors on Friday 22 December 2017 and is the latest of a growing chain comprising of about 80 venues across the UK. Previously a departmental store which has been unoccupied for at least three years. The downstairs is a labyrinth of seating areas, two of which have bars and can accommodate about 100 diners offering tables for 2 to 20, with loads more seating at the bars. Do not be put off by the minimalist look of the walls and ceilings, stripped back to the old brickwork which sets it apart and is an attraction of the venue. Upstairs there is a second bar with loads more seating including three "horseshoe" sofas which can seat 8 mates on a night out. The upstairs, with its own DJ booth and dance floor, can also be used for private parties. Although a wide selection of drinks are available, Revolution specialises in the "trendy" cocktails, including a selection of gins and vodkas, however it is popular with the whole age spectrum, 18 - 80+. Note the rest rooms are downstairs from street level, and there are a few steps up to the ones on the first floor. The local CAMRA branch are doing their very best to get at least one hand-pump in offering a real ale, but interesting bottled beer is available which may, or may not be RAIB (real ale in a bottle)
