About this space

Front Area is a semi-private event space in The Bridge Tap that is anchored by a large, illuminated umbrella-like ceiling feature that frames a central cluster of high tables.

Design: The interior presents an industrial-pub aesthetic, combining exposed brick, a dark-painted high ceiling and polished parquet flooring. The seating is arranged as a mix of long communal tables, high stools and bench seating spread across an open-plan layout.

Features: The area provides built-in PA speakers and several wall-mounted screens suited to announcements and casual AV playback. The area includes air conditioning, venue Wi‑Fi and accessible toilets. The furniture can be rearranged between high-top clusters and bench seating to create different layouts.

Ideal for: Social groups seeking an informal, sociable setting with a mix of standing and seated layouts will find the Front Area well suited to relaxed, mixed-format gatherings.

What guests say: The Front Area is cosy and relaxed with friendly, attentive staff. The Front Area is busy at peak times, so availability can be limited on weekend evenings.
