We're excited to announce plans to transform an existing area of our venue into a vibrant new creative and event space, with work beginning next week! ✨

Designed to be accessible, welcoming and flexible, the new space will create exciting opportunities to support emerging artists, expand our food and drink offering, and bring people together through creativity, culture and community. Located near our restaurant and bar, it will provide a relaxed setting to eat, drink, work and socialise, while hosting a diverse range of creative and community activities.

During the works, our restaurant Fratelli's will continue serving from our Nook bar, Wednesday to Saturday, with its takeaway service operating as normal. Work is expected to be completed in late October to early November, at which point Fratelli's will reopen bookings.

A huge thank you to Define Architects, 3PConstruct and Jeffay Furniture for their collaboration in helping bring this vision to life.

Stay tuned as this exciting chapter for our venue takes shape!
