OASIS
X-Tels, which is now called Oasis. It's just the same, or probably worse than before, with tacky punters, dingy decor and frequented by single parents who don't admit to having kids.

Jaspers, Glebe Street.
X-TELS, Windsor Rd - Sticky carpets, 70's wallpaper, 50's throwbacks. Go only drunk.
Live Music Venues
The Windsor Pub opposite Monty Smiths car shop has good groups on Wednesdays, mostly jazz or rock and roll
Penarth folk club meets in Buff's (Royal Antediluvian Order of Buffaloes!) club in Arcot street. This used to be a great club when it was in the Labour Club, with international guests (mostly guitarists like Woody Mann, Duck Baker, Wizz Jones etc), now a much smaller affair, just somewhere to go and play yer guitar (or yer fiddle for that matter)

The Knowhere Guide started out as a list of places to skateboard in the UK. It is a compilation of (unedited) information and views supplied by users like yourself. It is not a conventional tourist guide!
In most cases, the information in each section has been submitted by more than one contributor
(the credits at the bottom of the page list some, but not all, of the contributors) and some of it dates back to the 1970s.
We make no claims as to the accuracy of the information in the Guide - our only purpose is to provide a forum for users to share their knowledge and opinions. So please keep a large bag of salt handy and be prepared to read between the lines!
If you disagree with a comment, or information is out of date, please submit an update! The contributors come from all walks of life, and their opinions are bound to be subjective, so if your view isn't represented, please speak up and contribute to the balance of the Guide. See below in the 'Have Your Say' section for how to add your voice.
If we have helped you out or made you laugh you can buy us a pint.
