Overview

The Flat

The guide was updated: 2023-02-07

Music is the star here, courtesy of resident music-maker DJ Sun, though there is a steady flow of guest DJs bringing their own beats to the dance floor. The ambiance is very laid-back, and it is as much a place to relax and have a bite to eat as it is a place to dance the night away.
