Venue Testimonials
Enjoyed it a lot, dining with a view of the London skyline a plus.

Lovely converted Warehouse, great location opposite Smithfield Meat Market.
Yvonne G
Beautiful warehouse style building that presents four different atmospheres depending on which floor you are in. Lively Cafe in the ground floor that serves humble food, beer bar in the first floor (it used to be the wine room long time ago), dining room in the second floor [...] and the top floor (beautiful views, and till this date, my favourite floor).
