Opened on 21 Aug 2021 in the former Aagrah training centre and function room, Groove Pad is spread over two floors. The top floor is where the main bar and stage is situated. This comprises an open-plan main room with an additional adjacent seating area near the entrance and more seating on a balcony. It has a modern minimalist feel befitting of a music bar. Live bands will perform on a regular basis. The bar has six handpulls with varying guest real ales, with one being reserved for strong beers, and ciders. Requests can be made to play music from the free juke box while enjoying your drink. On the ground floor is an additional bar with two hand-pulls and various keg taps. In the upstairs room, a Thursday night quiz is held and there is live music on Friday and Saturday nights. In the downstairs room, there is a "Jam night" every other Wednesday and a folk music night on Thursdays.
