Guaranteed to permanently remain a hidden gem, our classy little dive bar is bound to welcome you and quench your thirst with deliciously priced delicious drinks.

After a bumpy start coming out of COVID and a crazy water leak, The Duck is now truly finding its feet. Unreversing the rooms, we’re back to having a hidden (no really, it’s hard to find) cosy late night bar space, now affectionally known as the Apollo bar, as a call back to our original venue on the spot.

Our revised venue space is by far the best layout we’ve had and since the switch in Autumn 23, we’re already hearing about some great feedback and are looking forward to establishing an amazing, one of a kind, program of events!

We take every opportunity to ensure the details for The Flying Duck are accurate, if any of the above information is incorrect we would appreciate if you could take a minute to suggest an edit.
