Poor ticket sales at the 2009 Big Chill festival led to the event seeking voluntary liquidation, at which point it was purchased by the Festival Republic behemoth.
Happily, the two London bars have proven more stable, and continue to earn acclaim from fans who are inspired by the artwork and tickled by the signage ('brothers' and 'sisters' on the toilet doors).
Housed in a large, difficult building, the King's Cross branch can feel a little tumbleweedy on quiet nights; it's best to head here when there are DJs, generally Thursdays to Sundays with occasional events on other evenings.
From the drinks list, cocktails (served in glasses or pitchers) are more enticing than the dull beer list (Amstel, Heineken, Budvar); food includes individual dishes (burgers, burritos) and sharing platters. An upstairs patio comes into its own in summer.

The WiFi never works, the plug sockets are dodgy, and the staff are largely inattentive. This place is not as good as it thinks it is, and too expensive for what you get.
