Lurking down a nondescript alleyway, is this alternative bolthole being deliberately hidden from mainstream eyes?

Step inside & it could be any year between Frankie Howerd’s Up Pompeii & Frankie Goes to Hollywood – hence cheesy Top of the Pops oldies mixed with ‘things we podium-danced to in Sitges circa 1992’.

To drink, order bargain-basement Stella & cider – sometimes in the same glass – with a packet of crisps on the side.
