About this space

The Basement Bar is a Basement in Coin Laundry characterised by exposed brick walls and a distressed timber floor that create a compact, characterful lower-ground setting.

Design: The room is framed by industrial cast-iron columns and low ceilings punctuated by recessed spotlights. The colour palette is dark and utilitarian, using painted metal fittings and straightforward seating to keep the space practical and unfussy.

Features: The Basement Bar contains a staffed service bar serving cocktails, beer and wine. The space offers flexible table and chair arrangements across an open floor suitable for standing receptions or informal seated layouts. The room includes Wi‑Fi and air conditioning.

Ideal for: Groups seeking a relaxed, social standing reception or an informal seated meal in a compact, lively lower-ground space.

What sets it apart: An in-house PA and permission to play guests' own music provide a private-party sound setup.

What guests say: The Basement Bar is airy and characterful, and the open layout suits lively private parties and casual gatherings.

40th Birthday Party · 80 guests · January 2026
The space was perfect with a really fun atmosphere - just the right amount of seating and dancing space. The bar staff were exceptional - couldn't recommend it more! The made our 40th a really fun and special night - thank you.
The toilets could've been warmer, but I'm nit-picking here!

Birthday Party · 70 guests · January 2025
Great venue, perfect size, loved that it had its own bar and toilets. Good communication from the venue beforehand and helpful staff.
Only comment would be that the decks weren't working properly (we could play music but the mixer wasn't working).

Company Fun Day · 60 guests · May 2024
The team at Coin Laundry was amazing. The set-up for our event was nice and easy, and everyone had a great time. Our barmaid, Anna, was great fun and got involved in our company quiz. The food was brilliant as well, with great portion sizes and everything being tasty! Would highly recommend.
