Thyme Tavern is a small, welcoming pub on London Street in the centre of Chertsey, a short hop from Egham. It is an intimate room where the audience sits close to the performers, which suits its regular live music night well.
Music Mondays is the pub's weekly open mic, running every Monday from 7.30pm to 10.30pm and free for performers and audience alike. Sign-up is walk-in on the night. There is a small stage with two microphones and Mackie frontline speakers - bring your own instruments and plug in.
The night welcomes musicians and comedians, and the pub keeps a dedicated Facebook page for Music Mondays with dates and updates.
