Shanghai & Bartender's Room at 68&SHANGHAI

Event Space in a Cocktail Bar

Private space
76 Commercial St, London, E1 6LY
Aldgate East Station (0.2 mi)

About this space

Hire the full floor at 68 & Shanghai — the Shanghai Cocktail Lounge, the hidden Bartender's Room, and the Shanghai Terrace included.

It works for corporate events, celebrations, networking parties, and private functions, with three connected but separate areas across the floor.

The Shanghai Cocktail Lounge is the main space, with seating, lighting that can be adjusted, and a full cocktail list. Upstairs, the Bartender's Room is smaller and more private — a quieter spot for VIP moments, smaller conversations, or private dining within the event. The Shanghai Terrace connects the two as an outdoor balcony for open-air drinks.

Guests can move between busier, quieter, and outdoor areas across the same booking.
