The company, which directly operates five sites and five more associate sites under its Brew Kitchen scheme, has opened the new venue after refurbishing the former Trippet’s Wine Bar.
The group said that with the new site it was rethinking the traditional bar “as a social destination, providing a venue that grants local established artists more licence to experiment, and attracting an audience who are inclined to be creative, meet and plan ideas, enjoy live performances and take in artwork”.
Operations director Simon Webster said: “Running a brewery and pubs is hard in difficult economic times, but it should be a fun job too.
“Dada’s opening is a good example — we wanted to have fun and create a venue that would, like the famous Dada art movement, challenge the norm, while using our winning focus on beer, art, music and community to attract a wide range of customers.”
The group is also set to open its 12th site by the end of the year after securing the Coach & Horses on the outskirts of Sheffield from Sheffield Football Club, the world’s oldest football club.
The firm has been supplying the site with its beers for the past three years. It will refresh the site and re-open it under its current name.
