Great experience at Apiary Studios! We were made to feel extremely welcome, and were permitted to use multiple spaces and a variety of furniture and props. The staff were really friendly, helpful and accommodating and the space was perfect for our photoshoot needs. Highly recommend this venue!

Filming Location · 4 guests · February 2020 · Studio 2

Great space, relaxed to work in.

When it began to rain there was some noise from the drain pipes in Studio 2 that we had to work around - this would only be a problem if your filming sound on your shoot.

  • Ami J. rated it 5/5 stars
    'The era of the ‘pop up party’ has begun! Thank you Apiary Studios for coming to my rescue when I was a week away from my 30th birthday with everything planned and a cancelled venue. Every single person we interacted with was super helpful and friendly, and completely made us feel like we were having a party at home. The space felt like ours the whole night and we didn’t feel restricted in any way. I honestly couldn’t recommend this for future parties! '
