Everything we know about Dover's newest night-time venue The Attic bar.

The pool room and club bar will be opening in the old The Party Bar unit in Church Street.

Dover's newest night-time venue will be opening its doors for the first time on July 20.

The Attic Bar is located at the Church Street unit that used to be home to The Party Bar nightclub.

The owners told MyDover the plan is to open The Pool Room in the top floor of the building.

On the first floor will be a club bar that will be open until 3.30am.

Venue manager Ben said they were "proud" to be bring a disused commercial back to life.

He told MyDover: "We haven’t run a bar before but have a great experienced team behind us and are really looking forward to adding to Dover’s night scene.

"We feel it has really grown in the last few years and people are really excited for new places to open.

"The venue has been closed for around six years and we are told it was always a popular destination although not with the best reputation.

"We are really committed to bringing a safe and enjoyable venue to all and are really excited to be offering a bar purely dedicated to pool and with the club bar downstairs opening on Fridays and Saturdays, it’s going to give people even more variety to enjoy there nights out.

We are very proud to be bringing a disused commercial property back into use for the local community."

Ben said “The Pool Room” opens on July 20 and will open on Friday and Saturday between 3pm and 10pm and 3pm until midnight the rest of the week, except Monday when it's closed.

The club bar will be open Friday and Saturday 8pm to 3.30am, with free entry before 11pm and no entry after 2am.

Ben said the Pool Room has four tables and the club bar two tables and two sofas.

He added: "The vision is for the pool room to be a social atmosphere welcoming people that want to come enjoy a game of pool with friends and have a good time.

"Then on Friday & Saturdays you can drift down into the club bar and enjoy a VK fishbowl or Passion fruit Martini or choose from a wide range of spirits including the full AU Vodka range, ciroc & Absolut and dance the night away whilst enjoying yourself with friends."

The new venue is one of several in Dover to recently announce openings.
