Love this place - especially the Superstition nights, they never over sell tickets so there's always lots of space. Great sound system and some decent drinks at the bar which is rare for these nights

Martin Deutsch

Went for a gig and found it remarkably stress-free: door staff were friendly and found my box-office collect tickets with no problems; good views of the stage; only complaint was the price of the beer

Jake Dylan

My new favourite club in London. So easy and relaxed. No.securoty yelling about sitting on the stage. Or taking videos. Just fun and great vibes.

London techno , great industrial vibes. Remember the minimal laser show for a New Year's Eve a couple of years ago, amazing. Friendly prices, amazing vibe for music lovers and clubbing enthusiasts.

Giacomo Mason

One of the best small venues in London, hands down. If you exclude the limited drinks selection...

David Sulitzer

Amazing vibe in there! It's not mega huge but the volume is enormous! So you won't feel cramped. Went on Saturday and we could all move and dance freely, the best of East London!

Roy

Protip: there's always room on the other sound of the soundboard, so squeeze behind it to get to the other side to get a better view of the stage.

Ross Groom

Love the brickwork with the super high ceilings , feels like you're under a railway bridge .

Simon Saint

Great music venue in the heart of shoreditch, grab a spot behind the engineers desk for an unobstructed view and a ledge to sit on!

Paul Mullins

Very intimate setting . I went to a fintech podcast recording and loved the vibe..exposed brick etc

Renovated warehouse space in Shoreditch - more an events space than a gig venue , hosting theatre , club nights and exhibitions as well as gigs.

Dmitry Devishev

Great place for techno music !

Vic McGin

Magic gig venue , intimate with a good vibe. Get ready to strip off though - gets super hot in warm weather.

Laurea de Ocampo

Huge raw space with surprisingly good sound. Really hot though -they need better ventilation.

I went there for Skream last night of residency and I wasn't disaappointed. Love the space and the people who work there are very nice. The soundsystem is as great as the line-ups (meaning fantastic). - Mary Yasmine Arrouche
