About Me

We are a family run pub. We specialise in the customers having a laugh and having a good time! We've been running this pub since August 2006 and everyday brings us new challenges. Mainly getting rid of the bad reputation and stigma that came with the pub and bringing a better vibe and atmosphere to the place.
Ultimately we would like to prove ourselves as Bognor's #1 music venue!
We have a large stage with a Mackie in house p.a system and a full lighting rig including lasers and smoke machines.
Six championship standard dart boards.
A pool table.
A function room that we can hire out for wedding receptions etc.
A large projector screen.
And we also have a large garden and a designated smoking area.

My Interests

Live music. We have live music most fridays and saturday nights.

I'd like to meet:

We like to meet people who wish to keep Live Music Alive and also any bands or solo artists that wish to perform in the pub.
There are several tribute bands that perform here. From Meatloaf to Cher to Oasis to Guns N' Roses.
There are some great local talent gigging here as well.
We also have a jam nite for musicians.
With drums, Marshall guitar and bass amps and microphones already here in house.
And also karaoke nights.
Anyone interested in joining in pop in or give us a call. 01243 829313.
Check out our official web site: www.thefamilytree.ukpub.net.
Look at our gig listings below and see if there is anything you'd like to come and experience.
