Exciting new Jazz bar to open in Doncaster city centre

A Jazz lounge will be the first of its kind to open in Doncaster with live music and signature cocktails.

Misty’s will officially open on September 10, it will be located inside The White Bear on Hall Gate.

We spoke to owners Lilly Anna and Simon Gaskell about their new Jazz themed lounge.

Lilly said: “We have always been into Jazz but there isn’t anywhere near here to enjoy it, the closest is Leeds.

“We took a research trip to New York to visit authentic Jazz bars and pulled together ideas we could bring back here.

“It will be an immersive experience with cocktails, live music and a low lit atmosphere.”

The lounge will only be accessible by a secret door inside of The White Bear.

“It will have a completely different vibe,” she continued.

“Once your inside you can say goodbye to Doncaster and hello to New York.”

The owners have only been renovating the space for two weeks but have had the idea of the lounge since last year.

They are keen to highlight live music every weekend as well as DJ sets.
