1920 Bar

Description

 

Welcome to 1920 Bar

Step into 1920 Bar – Clerkenwell’s original activity bar, where good times, games, and great service come together in a space that’s both classy and funky.

We’ve been proudly independent since opening our doors in 2000, and this year we’re celebrating 25 years of cocktails, competition, and connection. Join us as we mark this special milestone all year long with unforgettable nights and throwback vibes.

At the heart of 1920 is our love for American pool – with plenty of beautifully kept tables ready for serious play or just some casual fun. But that’s just the start. Challenge your mates to interactive darts, battle it out at the foosball table, or get nostalgic with our retro arcade games.

Whether you're catching up with friends, planning a private party, or just fancy a change from the usual night out, 1920 is the spot. Our small, dedicated team runs the show with genuine warmth, attention to detail, and a passion for making sure everyone feels welcome.

Come for the games, stay for the cocktails – and celebrate 25 years of 1920 with us.
