Absolutely loved the venue, so aesthetic. A perfect place to host my painting workshop. They had all the right products and my vision for the workshop came to life. Everyone was super friendly there too.
Nothing, everything was perfect!

About The Purple Owl

The Purple Owl is a Trusted Tagvenue Partner, validated by the Tagvenue team with a record of successful bookings on the platform.

Welcome to The Purple Owl — a vibrant, multi-purpose Independent venue just a 3-minute walk from Wandsworth Town.

Designed to transition effortlessly from a bright daytime hangout into a more intimate, fun atmospheric evening space, it’s perfect for everything from relaxed socials to full-scale celebrations.

At the heart of the venue is a concrete circular bar, offering full visibility across the space and creating a naturally social, open-flow environment. With a 200-person capacity, seating for 90 indoors, and space for 60 in the front garden, the layout is both spacious and highly adaptable.

For music lovers, we’re fully equipped with a professional live music setup, including in-house Pioneer CDJ-3000s and Technics vinyl turntables—ideal for DJs, performers, or curated playlists that elevate your event. We also have a full PA system, perfect for live performances, speeches, or presentations.

Our cocktail and wine bar features six beers on draft alongside a carefully curated drinks selection. From the kitchen, we offer a range of buffet-style options and charcuterie boards, as well as vegetarian and gluten-free dishes, pastries, pies, cakes, and high-quality coffee & Matcha.

Beyond being a bar, The Purple Owl is also a creative hub. Guests can incorporate arts-based experiences such as pottery painting, fabric workshops, or sip-and-paint sessions—adding a unique and memorable layer to any gathering.

Located in the heart of stylish Wandsworth Town, the venue blends South London energy with a distinctive edge—something truly hard to find elsewhere.
