A great platform for original singers “Beers N’ Cheers” is “Probably the only venue in town that actively seeks new artists.
Beers N’ Cheers (BNC) was initially started in 2015 by Parbat Thapa and a few others as a pub. After a few changes in owners finally, the pub was owned by Ritavraj Joshi, Prabat Thapa, and Karan Shrestha. Being a musician himself, Joshi decided the place to be the rescue site for original singers. Things have been great since then.
The pub is collecting a fund for expanding the area and adding more equipment and space for great gigs.

Their statement on the fundraising site reads:
Beers N’ Cheers has always been a spot for original music. From its humble acoustic beginnings in 2017 – to carrying amps and drums every weekend (for 2 years straight) from Mr. Music Studio just to organize a gig – to now finally having its own backline, mixers and speakers.The struggle has been real and all of this has been done without any sponsor tieups or commercial contracts – but the journey has been beautiful as well. This is the power of the local music scene and originality per se and the lovely crowd that comes in each fateful night at this venue and making sure that the artists get the love and respect they deserve. From growing bands such as Jhilkey and the Company and kidsandheroes to international acts such as Daniel Waples and established names such as Arthur Gunn, Jerusha Rai, Gauley Bhai, ASM, Kaagaz, Cobweb, Bartika Eam Rai, DIwas Gurung, Topi and many more, this place is fortunate to have had hosted over 400 gigs of different spectrums!!
We now are expanding the area to comfortably accommodate a 200 stand-in crowd – enough for intimate but grand-er gigs with the most kickass sound you can imagine along with a green room for artist and an open backyard. With the latest mixers and inears already onboard, we want to make sure that the musicians always have a top-notch time playing just as the crowd will have the same when joining in. No matter the size – the philosophy of our place will always remain the same.And for this, we are currently doing our part – DIY as usual – but look forward to your help in fulfilling the remaining that includes
1. A pair of 3 way speakers or a pair of line array speakers2. PA monitors3. Green room for artistTotal estimated overall renovation budget: USD 35,000Total budget expected from crowdfunding: USD 10,000This place shall and will always be the hobnob for original music and we wish to make sure every artist gets a fair start. We have the local musicians (new and old) as a testimony to what we’re trying to do here – and as we like to keep things independent, we wish to turn ourselves towards the music lovers rather than commercial sources that come in with hidden clauses and requirements.This is 100% for BNC 3.0!!Please make sure you drop your full names as we want to make sure that each of the contributors here get a special mention in one of our stage side walls at the venue.We’ll also make sure that we will share the invoice, receipt and details of expenses to make it clear that we’re only hoping to fulfil this deficit whereas all the other civil, construction and equipment costs are coming in straight from 3 pockets as usual – ourselves!!
It’s been amazing building a platform for all the original artists out here, and we’ll always be the same!!Cheers to you all!!
