A friendly neighbourhood bar with a great choice of craft, cask beers, wines and spirits, friendly staff and a delicious menu. Last orders during Fringe: 3am. During the Fringe we host a selection of PBH's Free Fringe shows in our function room from noon to midnight.

A stand-up comedy show about the everyday absurdities of India, the US and the UK where Prateek has lived and performed. The absurdities get historical, political and sometimes to outright denial when it's least expected. Prateek is an upcoming Indian comic who is quickly making his name in the UK comedy circuit and can regularly be seen performing at top comedy clubs across the country like The Comedy Store, Up the Creek and Komedia. BBC New Comedy Award – shortlisted. West End New Act of the Year – runner up. Komedia New Comedy Award - finalist.

Prateek Kohli: Denial

Liz Bains (Funny Women Awards 2023 One to Watch) gave her neighbour some freshly dug potatoes; in return, he gave her an existential crisis. Back with her second Edinburgh Fringe solo comedy show, Liz sets out to reclaim the word spinster.

Liz Bains: Great Wife Material

Toxic positivity? Yes please! American-born Brit comedian Liz Guterbock (Guardian and Dave Joke of the Fringe Top 10s) remains f*cking nice despite the world increasingly being run by bullies. With everything going on right now, Liz would swear more, but she's not even sure she'd do it in the right accent. Americans say she sounds British. Brits say she sounds American. Liz thinks she might just sound like a jackass – but come and judge for yourself. She'll be nice. Promise... 'Emanates sweetness with added LA charm' **** (FunnyWomen.com).

Liz Guterbock: Nice

Peter Merre is back for his third successive solo show covering all the news fit to talk about: music, celebrity scandals, television, RIPs and of course politics at home and abroad including the new (new?) Labour government, the lesser spotted Tories, the lesser spotted in Clacton Mr Nigel Farage and overseas including Trump, JD Vance, Putin, Zelensky and much much more. If you love Have I got News For You, this is for you. Peter has credits on BBC Radio Newsjack, Times Radio, 8 Out of 10 Cats Does Countdown.

Topical Comedian – Definitely Maybe

'If Greggs don’t sponsor this woman, they are really missing a trick' **** (Scotsman). As a northern transplant in London, Natalie often finds her views and needs impacting every aspect of her life, from sex to shopping; add a few songs and you’ll find out how this stereotypical northern, pansexual human makes it through the day. Kebabs mainly. Pegasus New Comedian of the Year 2023. West End New Act of the Year finalist 2022. 'A voice that drops jaws' (Scotsman). 'Going to be astounding' (Rich Hall). 'An unmissable Talent' (TheWeeReview.com).

Angle of the North: Natalie Durkin

Two friends, both alike in dignity, which is to say they’re really trying, ok? Despite growing up on opposite sides of the world, Stacey (West End New Act Finalist) and Kat (Dabbers Comedy Caller Finalist) share some alarming similarities. Outwardly adult, inwardly pure chaos, join them for an hour of trying to figure out their lives through jokes.

Charm Offensive

Guzzle the vibes and grab a pint in the unique and ludicrous company of Carlos Sandin and Fred Newnes. Two humble hombres who will try everything in the pursuit of fun, where anything could happen and probably will. Expect a mega dram of clownprov, sketch and sweat. ‘Is this comedy? Summer 2056’ (Angel McMannon).

The Supermalts

School dinner ladies, Barbara and Veronica, are in charge now. They’ve been through thick (custard) and thin (gravy). And now they’re serving up a scrumptious blend of greasy friendship and anarchic delight, with hints of impending peril. If you behave, you’ll be home in time for cocoa and Fray Bentos. It’s Thelma & Louise meets George’s Marvellous Medicine meets a big pile of offal. So feed, learn, and come of age. Lady Bolognese have prepared their specialty. Developed with Above Your Nerve and Soho Theatre Labs. (WIP)

Lady Bolognese: CLASS WAR

Just come… it’ll be a laugh! 'Stuart Nixon is beyond a comedy act. He’s a vibe' (Omid Djalili). 'Genius. I loved it' (Paul Currie).
