With their resident DJ providing the eclectic soundtrack, the Bookclub's trademark party atmosphere and £3 Strawberry Mojitos there really are few better places to say goodbye to 2016.

A great list of beers and wines on offer (for great prices) and with tickets costing just £10, it really won't break the bank.

Price: advanced tickets £10 per person (+ £1.50 booking fee)
