BEDFORDS UPSTAIRS BAR REFURB

BE THE EXCEPTION, NOT THE RULE

10 days, 100 hours and one goal, to refurbish the upstairs bar at Bedfords whilst my son and business partner Jonathan Carr was on holiday in Las Vegas.

Mission accomplished 🙏

14/05/2024

So after 2 weeks of hard graft the majority of the refurb of our upstairs bar is complete 🙏

Just some finishing touches left to do, our upstairs bar now feels more bougie and lounge like, a place to sit in comfort and drink with your friends.

Friday nights will feature live acoustic music most Fridays, we are in the process of booking acts now.

Watch out on our socials for upcoming events.

The bar looks stunning and feels completely different so come visit us and see for yourselves 🙏

03/05/2024

Bedfords Bar is currently refurbishing the upstairs bar and introducing new soft furnishings, new seating and low tables, hopefully this will give a you a more comfortable and cozy experience when coming in for drinks.

This all takes time and a huge amount of effort from our tradesman and staff so the changes will happen gradually over the forthcoming weeks.

We are excited to make these subtle changes and continue to provide you all with a pleasant drinking experience.

20/04/2024

Emma Newby thank you so much for your feedback, we had received a bad google review this afternoon one which I feel was unjustified so this helps set the record straight 🙏

BEDFORDS UPSTAIRS BAR REFURB BE THE EXCEPTION, NOT THE RULE 10 days, 100 hours and one goal, to refurbish the upstairs bar at Bedfords whilst my son and business partner Jonathan Carr was on holiday in Las Vegas. Mission accomplished 🙏

BEDFORDS BAR - TIME TO SHINE Well with the current climate affecting all night time businesses in Norwich it’s refreshing to know customers are still supporting Bedfords Bar, and we wholeheartedly appreciate it. The problem is there’s just not enough of you coming out, the City on a Friday night is woeful to say the least, if this continues on then businesses will have to close. Bedfords like all nighttime establishments are definitely feeling the pinch, we do our very best to encourage customers to visit us and of course we realise money is tight for most of us. We are hoping summer arrives soon as we have so much planned in the coming months and all through this year. We will be re-introducing some acoustic live music on Friday nights and we will be inviting some of our past solo artists back to Bedfords. So come and join in, you are what makes Bedfords tick. 🙏

What a fantastic night at Bedfords Bar tonight, The Floating Greyhounds smashing out in the Crypt for a private 30th birthday and our resident DJ Jonny Carr knocking it out the park in the upstairs bar. Not a spot of trouble, just Bedfords Bar doing what Bedfords Bar does best, thanks to all of our team you were amazing as always 🙏😊

Thanks to all our customers for coming out Saturday night, we really do appreciate all of you. Another cracking night with our resident DJ Jonathan Carr and Ben who were spinning the tunes all night long. A special thank you to our trusted team you all work so very hard and never complain 🙏😊 Looking forward to next weekend, it can’t come soon enough.

Another brilliant weekend at Bedfords Bar, the momentum is growing and we have so much planned for the summer. Check our socials for deets.

ABBA will live forever, and so will Bedfords Bar 🙏🤪🤣😊

What a fantastic ABBA drag event this is, suns out, bums out.

Kuća Collective on the decks 🙏😊

Our Story

Traditionally over the last 40+ years Bedfords has been the place to drink & chat in a comfortable, relaxed atmosphere. Today it’s no different, well apart from the complete re-fit conducted by the owner, Glen Carr and his son Jonathan Carr, the General Manager.

Along with their dedicated, professional and hard working team of staff they have achieved great success over the last 6 years and continue to improve and grow the ever-popular bar.

A recent refurbishment (2018) has seen the removal of the kitchen which has now been turned into The Vault, a secluded premium bar situated on the middle floor and a re-fit of the summer bar which serves the courtyard. Also a 10k investment into live music has seen a new stage erected in the Upstairs bar along with a new PA and lighting set up to give you that professional feel at all live music events.
