About this space

The Britannia Shoreditch is a historic building composed of compact event spaces characterised by preserved period interiors and visible period detailing.

Design: The venue is arranged as a sequence of small, interlinked rooms that show timber joinery, patterned wall coverings and modest ceiling heights; the overall interior reads as intimate and detailed rather than spacious or open-plan.

Features: The venue includes a built-in PA system and fixed speakers. The venue permits guest music and external DJs to operate their own setups. The venue provides Wi‑Fi and has rooms that receive natural daylight during the day.

Ideal for: Small groups seeking a relaxed, sociable standing reception or an informal seated gathering in an intimate, characterful setting.

What sets it apart: A step-free guest entrance provides level access into the main event areas, improving accessibility for attendees.

Host rules

The Britannia is a private residential venue, so guests are asked to treat the space with care and respect.

Smoking is not permitted inside the property. Smoking may take place outside and on the roof, but guests should be mindful of neighbours and dispose of cigarettes responsibly.

Alcohol may be brought for private events and celebrations; however, guests must drink responsibly and comply with all applicable laws. The venue cannot be used for unauthorised public events or alcohol sales.

The property contains carefully curated furniture, artwork, and design elements. Guests are responsible for any damage to the property, furnishings, or equipment during their booking.

Furniture may be moved to suit your event or production, but it must be returned to its original position before departure.

The chef’s kitchen may be used during events or productions but must be left clean and tidy after use.

The roof terrace is available for guests to enjoy, but noise should be kept to a reasonable level out of respect for neighbouring properties.

Please ensure the venue is left in a clean and orderly condition, with all personal items, decorations, and equipment removed at the end of your booking.

The Britannia is best suited for private gatherings, dinners, celebrations, creative events, filming, and photo shoots. This rental is exclusively one use per rental agreement, no third party rentals. Thank you.

Cancellation policy: Standard 60 day with Grace Period
