In the very heart of Dalston, our spacious and relaxed bar provides the perfect place for food and drink before and after a show (pre-ordered interval drinks available); a great spot to stop by during the daytime, meet with friends, have a light lunch or relax with a book from our book-swap library and a coffee.
Wi-Fi is freely available throughout the bar and foyer so you can surf the web or get on with some work.
We’re dedicated to using as many local suppliers as possible to support local business and communities, reduce carbon emissions and offer high quality organic and sustainable products.
