THE OLD SCHOOL YARD
LONDON BRIDGE BAR & KARAOKE ROOMS
The Old School Yard is a cocktail bar in London Bridge. It’s the perfect place for Karaoke, catching up with mates, celebrating Birthdays, drinking cocktails, singing until your throat gets sore and dancing to some funky tunes. Basically an awesome party bar.
Famous for it’s legendary Happy Hour Cocktails, funky music from the 80s and 90s mixed with contemporary floor fillers. We also have private karaoke rooms. The Old School Yard is the perfect place to unleash your inner child.
We are close to London Bridge station and Borough station. Easy to get to on Jubilee and Northern Line
Outdoor heated terrace seating available
BOOK A TABLE
Come for a cocktail with friends. It’s free to book a table but valuable piece of mind to know you and your friends have a base for the night.
You need a minimum of 4 people to book a table. If it’s just a couple of you it’s normally possible to find a place to perch…
If you are celebrating and have a large party we normally suggest you book a table as there is no minimum spend for doing so. Some of our tables are fairly large and can sit 15-20 people.
