3 Drinks Behind, Hyde

Microbar reopened 17th May 2021 as 3 Drinks Behind, a reference to a quote from Humphrey Bogart "The problem with the world is that everyone is 3 drinks behind". Bought out by 4 locals with time on their hands during lockdown. Four cask ales, one from Beartown & three guests, typically from local breweries (updates available via facebook). At least one stout or porter always available. 20p per pint discount for CAMRA Members on real ale. Selection of draft German lagers, 2 craft keg beers, and a wide selection of gins, rums, malt whiskey's and wine. Good use is made of limited space via padded benches around the perimeter walls & dark wood tables & chairs, resulting in 30 being able to sit comfortably & a lay-out that inevitably encourages conversation. A huge mirror also creates a more spacious feel and the walls are adorned with pictures from Hollywood's golden age. Live music monthly. Children welcome until 7pm. Quiz Wednesdays from 7pm. The bar faces one part of the cemetery of Hyde Chapel and is near to the junction with Joel Lane and the Grapes Hotel. Available to book for private functions, including Mondays, (capacity 35). On 202 bus route.
