About this space

The Kitchen is a Kitchen in The Compound, an open-plan industrial space defined by high ceilings and generous proportions.

Design: The interior combines exposed steel columns and timber joists with polished concrete floors and metal-framed glass partitions. The furniture pairs long wooden dining pieces with industrial fixtures and warm, low lighting.

Features: The space provides a long communal dining table and movable seating to allow flexible layouts for seated meals or standing receptions. The space includes Wi‑Fi, air conditioning, a PA system and speakers, and permits own music or a hired DJ. The space has step-free access and is wheelchair accessible.

Ideal for: Social groups and work teams seeking a relaxed, sociable setting for seated dining or informal standing receptions.

What sets it apart: A distinctive feature is a pair of chef-style brass islands and a commercial range that function as working cooking and serving stations.

What guests say: The space is striking and surprising compared with an unassuming exterior, and the interior scale and industrial character leave a strong impression.
