Nestled beneath the bustling Chelmsford railway station, independent taproom Radio City Social is making waves with its latest venture—a brand new beer garden. This isn't just any garden; it's a charming oasis under the historic arches, complete with artificial grass and handcrafted wooden benches. The grand opening is set for Friday night, April 18, with live acoustic performances by local artists to kick off the festivities.
Owner Dan Harvey, who traded his corporate life for a passion for craft beer and community, opened Radio City Social in 2022. The bar boasts an impressive selection of 18 beers on tap, alongside craft ciders, locally-made spirits, and wine. With the new addition, the bar's capacity will expand by around 70 seats, providing ample space for silent discos, beer festivals, and sports events.
Dan shares his excitement: "The beer garden is going to be mega. It’s bringing something new to the bar, and to the arches under Chelmsford station. Our community of regulars is really excited to have this space for the summer."
Radio City Social's commitment to community and creativity is evident in its plans for the future. Despite the challenges faced by the hospitality industry, Dan is optimistic: "This is just the beginning – we have big plans for the future. We love Chelmsford, and being based here is a huge source of pride."
Whether you're a craft beer enthusiast or simply looking for a unique spot to unwind, Radio City Social's new beer garden is a must-visit. And if you're considering making Chelmsford your home, why not let us at Bond Residential help you find the perfect place to enjoy all the city has to offer? Cheers to new beginnings and community spirit!
