About this space

The space is a 32 square metre or 350 square feet room. It's quiet and private with an excellent upright piano (£1 extra per hour), a long mirror on one wall, lots of light (all artificial), wifi and many chairs and tables. NB there is no natural light and the ceiling is low, 7ft, so it has its limitations.

Great space underneath the bookshop. Great communication beforehand and we we shown around and left to it.

No facilities for tea/ coffee etc. No natural light, some noise from the theatre next door. None of these factors interfered with our event.

Really lovely/quirky space. Love the guard cat


We are very central, a 2 minute walk from Waterloo station. It's not glamorous like some other places but in comparison it's inexpensive. So it's cheap and it's central, also we just charge one flat rate whether you want the theatre space or the basement, there's no sliding scale, it's all transparent. And you can book for just one hour if you want, there's no minimum.
We have a 72 hours cancellation policy.
