About this space

Pooles Wharf, a historic building in Bristol Harbour once known as the ‘Old Smithy,’ offers a unique and versatile space for events. Overlooking the picturesque floating harbour at Mardyke Wharf, this venue blends historic charm with modern amenities. Restored by Young Bristol in 2000, it now serves as an intimate space for meetings, conferences, and small parties. The room is air-conditioned and accommodates up to 14 guests seated, providing a comfortable environment for your gatherings.

The venue features a small kitchen with tea and coffee facilities, making it convenient for catering arrangements. Accessibility is a highlight, with a pay-and-display car park located adjacent to the building and access to major bus routes. For those arriving by boat, the private pontoon offers direct access via Bristol Ferry services. Additionally, the venue is easily reachable from Bristol Temple Meads Station and within walking distance of Bristol City Centre.
