Originally opened in 1993, the likes of Oasis, Radiohead, Supergrass and the Arctic Monkeys helped to make The Garage one of the best-loved venues in London, before closing its doors in late 2006.
Now with a £1m refurb, The Garage returns with a better soundsystem, new toilets and improvements all round, keeping it up-to-date while retaining the integrity that made it so popular in the first place.
It will no doubt be only a matter of time before the place is once again being used by massive bands for secret shows, and attracting the new breed before they hit the big time.

Highly disappointing.
Saw two electronica bands here - both had quite heavy bass. This made a bar strung across the roof holding up some sort of room divider vibrate like crazy. Sound engineers seemed unable to stop it happening, so sound was absolutely dreadful for both bands.
The main hall and bar were reasonably well filled, but it was not packed. Yet the whole place stank, as did the toilets.
My first time here, I frequent venues in Camden and hoxton/shoreditch and have not yet found one I would refuse to return to - this place is a no-no for me from now on.
Bar staff were fine, service reasonably quick. Door and cloakroom staff were all perfectly nice too.
Here's looking forward to the next refurbishment!
