Private space

About this space

The Backyard Terrace is our beautiful cosy enclosed terrace that comes with a fully retractable roof for warm sunny days, and plenty of heaters for the cooler months. Comfortably furnished with sofas and soft seating, the space accommodates up to 100 standing and is a great hidden gem to get away from the noise of busy Shoreditch high street.

Popular for summer socials, birthday parties, corporate events or a cosy space for winter nights.

In this space you have your own private bar and rest rooms. For music, we can offer your own playlist via our sound system however I'm afraid we can't allow live music or DJs due to outside noise restrictions. The daily closing time for this space is 11pm.

This space can be hired semi-privately for groups of 20+ with a minimum spend or exclusively for groups of 50+ as per minimum spend agreements.
