The Greyhound in Peckham combines a welcoming pub vibe with a vibrant basement nightclub featuring diverse events and delicious Caribbean cuisine
Peckham: A pub called The Greyhound has recently opened up with a cool surprise – a hidden nightclub in the basement! This place is not just about drinks; it’s got a lively scene with DJs and comedy nights.
After a makeover, the basement now holds around 150 people and features a top-notch sound system. It’s perfect for all sorts of events, from music to comedy and community gatherings.
The team behind this transformation is known for their work at The Cause in East London and All My Friends in Hackney Wick. They really know how to create a fun atmosphere.
Upstairs, The Greyhound keeps it cozy and traditional, serving up craft beers and ciders. The food is crafted by chef Natty Can Cook, who brings a Caribbean twist to the menu, inspired by his mom’s recipes.
Natty’s dishes, like hearty Sunday roasts and Caribbean classics, have quickly become local favorites. Plus, sports fans can catch all the big games on the pub’s screens.
Whether you’re there for a match, a pint, or some delicious food, the upstairs area is a comfy spot to chill before heading down to the buzzing basement.
The basement has already seen some big names and up-and-coming DJs, making it a hot spot in Peckham. They’ve hosted everything from DJ EZ to live gigs and even clothing markets.
With a packed schedule ahead, there’s no shortage of underground DJs and local talent to check out. They even have open deck nights for aspiring DJs to show off their skills.
Stuart Glen, one of the co-founders, shared that they’ve revamped the basement to cater to a wider audience and embrace the local community. They want to create a space for live bands, club nights, markets, and more.
It’s all about giving new promoters and artists a chance to shine and grow with them. Sounds like a great time, right?
