Le QuecumBar is a music venue and brasserie in Battersea, London, England dedicated to Gypsy Swing and the music of Django Reinhardt.

## History

The venue originally opened as The Woodman, a typical London pub, before being renamed as "The Original Woodman" due to a pub with the same name opening nearby. It features regular live music and concerts by Gypsy Swing musicians, including Fapy Lafertin. Johnny Depp visited the venue in order to study the character of Roux in the film Chocolat.
