Colour House Blues

You head down Watermill Way past the actual theatre and find yourself in a proper local's bar attached to the Colour House Theatre. It's the kind of place where someone's always playing guitar or there's a band tucked into the corner, and nobody's making a fuss about it. The crowd's a mix of theatre-goers killing time before shows, regulars who've claimed their favourite spots at the bar, and people who just wandered in because they heard there was something good happening. It's unpretentious in the best way—good drinks, live entertainment that actually matters, and a vibe that feels genuinely welcoming rather than aggressively cool.
