Cool and Quirky Bars in Essex

This weird and wonderful bar in Southend features live shows every weekend, with everything from burlesque to cabaret, variety and live music. With plush decor and a delicious selection of food available in the day time, Coco is a cool spot for any occasion. 

Having taken the hearts of Londoners, Puttshack is now moving on over to Essex. Swing by Lakesiade and you'll get to take part in some seriously high-tech golfing, complete with crazy courses and a fully-stocked bar to keep you fuelled. 

Complete with bottomless booze, finger-licking food, party bingo and non-stop dance-offs, Garage Bingo is ticking all our weekend boxes, and then some. Coming to a top-secret Essex location this spring, this daytime party is the stuff of Saturday session dreams.

Not only does Reids attract the coolest and most stylish clientele this side of Essex, they have lots of features that really makes the venue stand out from the crowd. Whether it's the six different bars, VIP balcony where you can overlook the bar or the library that doubles up as a dancefloor.
