The Pride of Spitalfields London

The Pride of Spitalfields London

Heneage St • $

While Brick Lane's bars chase trends, this scuffed-carpet stalwart pours London Pride and serves salt beef sandwiches like East London never changed. Cherry banquettes, live piano, and a crowd that ranges from historians to fashionistas.

Idalia Restaurant

Idalia Restaurant

Olympia Way

Dinner with a dramatic streak: modern British plates, theatrical desserts, and fashion-inspired cocktails inside Olympia's restored Pillar Hall. Live music upstairs, a secret bar below.

The Cockpit

The Cockpit

Gateforth St

A warm little fringe theatre where stand-up, plays and family shows share the stage. Grab a coffee at the cosy bar, settle onto a padded bench, and catch something unexpected.

Endeavour

Endeavour

Deptford Broadway • $$

A true community pub where basement gigs, German beers, and an inclusive crowd collide. Come for the live music, stay for the organised chaos that feels like the heart of Deptford culture.

Mien Dinner & Show

Mien Dinner & Show

Albert Embankment • $$$

Mien London keeps the night alive with fusion plates, cocktails, and shisha until the early hours. The mood shifts into an even more exclusive scene after 2:30 AM, with DJs and live sets fueling the crowd.

Three Hounds Beer Bar & Brewery

Three Hounds Beer Bar & Brewery

Beckenham Rd • $$

This Beckenham beer cafe rotates through craft breweries like Anspach & Hobday and Wiper and True, pouring a mix of keg, cask, and canned options. It's a proper community hub with a cozy cellar for comedy nights.

Frequently asked questions

How are these live music in London chosen?

I go through what's actually on nearby and keep only the ones worth the trip. Nobody pays to be on this list.

Is everything here still happening?

Finished events drop off the list. Check the listing for times and booking details before heading out.

How can Outgoing help me find something I’ll actually want to do?

Tell me when you’re free, where you’ll be, and what sounds appealing. “Live music near me, somewhere I can sit, under $30” gives me more to work with than “something fun.” You can keep narrowing it down with me.

Do I need an account to use Outgoing?

You can browse these pages without an account. Sign in to save activities and help me learn your taste, so future suggestions have a better starting point.

Is Outgoing free?

Outgoing is free to use. Events have their own admission prices, including some that are free. Check the listing for prices and booking details before making plans.
