About Crypt on the Green

Crypt on the Green is a Trusted Tagvenue Partner, validated by the Tagvenue team with a record of successful bookings on the platform.

Crypt on the Green is a church crypt characterised by vaulted brick ceilings and a timber parquet floor, forming a historic subterranean event space.

Venue highlights: The interior's open-plan volume adapts easily between seated layouts and standing arrangements while natural light reaches the lower level. A practical host infrastructure includes on-site kitchen facilities to support catering and the option to stage promoted or ticketed events. The room benefits from clear acoustics and parking options that include an accessible spot and paid on-site parking.

Best for: This venue suits wine and spirit tastings, corporate meetings and workshops, and small-scale performances or film shoots.

Location: Clerkenwell Close sits in Clerkenwell, an area known for design studios and a dense restaurant and bar scene, and the street is a short walk from Farringdon station.

What guests say: The crypt's adaptable layout and the separate vestry room make staged breakouts, catering runs and layout changes straightforward for private hires. The venue's staff are responsive and accommodating during private events, and the space's acoustic separation prevents outside noise from interrupting meetings or performances.

Usually booked for
Charity Event

Typically for 100-200 guests and costs about £1,300.
