It’s Babies & Beer on Friday.
Finally, a “happy hour” that actually works for parents. Ignition’s Babies and Beer is back, giving you the best of both worlds: a chance to grab a cold pint while the little ones have a safe space to crawl and explore.
With the sun finally making an appearance, we’re opening up the garden so you can soak up some rays while the babies crawl off that afternoon energy. It’s relaxed, it’s friendly, and it’s the perfect way to reclaim your social life without needing a babysitter.
Grab a brew, find a spot in the sun, and let the babies do the rest.
Every Friday! from 3pm
