Twenty years in, still putting on the events that make the City look forward to lunch.
The evenings and afternoons below are all confirmed. Availability is updated daily and we never show the last seats left on the page, because the room should always feel full, not frantic.
If you are booking for a table of eight or more, drop us an email at events@steamwinebar.com before you complete the form and we will make sure we can seat you together.
Sorted by date, nearest first. Past events are tucked away at the bottom of the page.

An intimate acoustic evening
One year since taking over Steam. Danny Vaughan headlines an intimate acoustic night, joined by Tom Quick and guitarist Alex Bittles from The Brink. Stripped-back, soulful, and a proper celebration of how far things have come.
Coming Up
Our next run of events is being finalised. In the meantime, get in touch and we will tailor an evening for you.
Get in TouchThese are recurring formats, not weekly. The first dates will drop in the next few weeks. Register your interest and we will email you the moment they are in the diary, before they go on general sale.
A recurring evening
A guided tasting of four to six wines, hosted by one of our wine team, with small plates matched to the pour. Casual, informative, long on character and short on snobbery.

A full line up of stand up in the basement, a proper buffet supper, and a fully stocked bar. Comedy clubs used to be like this. We are bringing them back.

Bring a record, hear it on a proper system, share the story behind it. A casual evening for music obsessives and the merely curious, with the bar pouring and the turntable running on whatever ends up in the queue.
