Alcan Mardon, a social club for the local community.

A hidden treasure? - Midsomer Norton's best kept secret? You're unlikely to find Alcan Mardon Social Club, unless you come looking for us. But it's well worth making an effort to seek us out. We're tucked away on the Nightingale Estate on Norton Hill, opposite the school and have been around for over thirty years. The original building was built for the employees of the former Mardons factory and over the years has developed into a social club that is used and depended upon by much of the local community.
Though essentially a members club, we are open to ANYONE. A great deal of people don't realise that they are more than welcome to attend the club. You DON'T need to have worked at the Mardons/Alcan factory, be related to someone who worked there or even accompanied by an existing member of the club. The club is here to be used and enjoyed by all.

The Social Club is open to anyone who'd like to come and visit. If you find that you enjoy your time with us, we'd appreciate it if you became a member it's just £5 and that means free entry on Saturday nights when we have professional entertainment, reduced bar prices (approximately 10% less) and exclusive access to drinks promotions and offers. Membership forms are available from behind the bar. Membership runs from July - June, renewals will start in May.

We are an easy going, family friendly club that encourages visitors of all ages (children must be accompanied by a responsible adult). If you're looking for a quiet evening drink during the week or a lively Saturday night out, come and spend some time with us.

The Social Club has a large capacity and comfortably seats more than two hundred guests. Entry during the week is FREE and on Saturday night just £2 to non-members and FREE to members who show their valid membership card. Drinks are extremely good value, in fact some of the cheapest in the area - 'social club' prices!

The club is a great place to hold any function, Birthday parties, receptions, christening parties and fundraisers, if you have any requests for the use of the club, please let us know. We are now offering free hall hire have a look at the information on this site to see if you can make use of this facility.

Charity events are always well attended by our guests and as a club we will support any endeavour to raise funds for a worthy cause. We work hard to support local charity Dorothy House Hospice Care and hold quiz nights, fancy dress events, raffles and other functions in order to raise the much needed funds. Over the years we have raised many thousands of pounds for charity, and will continue to do so, with the help of our members.
All major sporting events are shown on the 'BIG SCREEN' and whilst many establishments are cutting back, we are happy to be able to continue to offer SKY Sports.

The club boasts 2 full size and well maintained snooker tables, arguably the best in the area, with regular league teams visiting. The separate snooker room is reserved for adults only, children are not permitted entry.

We have facilities for DARTS and would actively support anyone wishing to make use of any of our services or starting a team.

We have a skittle alley with regular teams attending and a very popular summer skittles league. If there's no match on, you are welcome to have a game at any time. If you'd like to book the alley for an evening out with friends or work colleagues, let us know and we'll try to arrange it.

We now offer wireless internet connection at the Social Club, anyone wishing to access the internet on their laptop or mobile should ask for the connection details from behind the bar.
