About this space

Right on the corner where Old Street meets Shoreditch High Street, The Cornershop is your go-to for good vibes and late nights.

Downstairs, you’ll find our neon-lit basement — a proper Shoreditch secret with space for up to 150 people, its own bar, a DJ booth, and three big HD screens. The low lighting and electric glow set the perfect mood for everything from midweek DJ takeovers and rowdy open mics to comedy nights, private parties, and birthday blowouts.

Whatever the occasion, we’ve got the space, the drinks, and the energy to keep the night going.

Giovanna and her staff were so helpful and communicative from the very start. We had been let down last minute and they were very so brilliant at accommodating us. We just had the best night. Everything ran smoothly and security were so vigilant.
Nothing at all!!!

Kind and wonderful staff. Perfect venue for a party: lights, music, bar. Had an absolute blast here for my 80’s themed 30th. Everyone commented on how good the venue was for it.
