American-owned ‘Little Glen’s’ has been around since 1995 and is the venue for hard-swinging local jazz or blues bands who play every night in the cramped and steamy stone-vaulted cellar. There are Sunday-night jam sessions where amateurs are welcome (as long as you’re good!) – it’s a small venue, so get here early if you want to see as well as hear the band.
