About this space

The Loft is a private event space in The Hare & Hounds (N1) that pairs intimate proportions with generous natural light.

Design: The room features a low, pitched beamed ceiling over exposed brick and painted timber panelling, producing compact, characterful proportions and a neutral material palette.

Features: The space has air conditioning, venue Wi‑Fi and permission to play your own music, subject to the venue's noise restrictions.

Ideal for: Small social groups seeking an intimate, relaxed room for seated dinners or standing drinks.

What sets it apart: A fixed mirrored disco ball chandelier hangs from the ceiling, providing a built-in focal point and party lighting.
