Doors closed on September 27.

A popular Birmingham cocktail and burlesque bar closed its doors over the weekend after five years in business.

Tonight Josephine, which was located on the Burlington Arcade, near New Street, offered customers a range of cocktails and themed bottomless brunches - including burlesque shows and country nights.

The venue, which is owned by Nightcap Venues that also runs Luna Springs, in Digbeth, opened in June 2021 in a unit once occupied by betting shop Ladbrokes.

But it closed its doors yesterday (September 27) with customers being encouraged to visit other locations.

Located in the city centre, Tonight Josephine is a fabulous watering hole, complete with pink interiors, a super fun atmosphere and pretty cocktails. It’s open late into the night, till 1am on the weekdays and 2am, on Friday and Saturday. | Google Maps
