This was the perfect venue for our party! Great music, great pizza, lovely and helpful staff! We even had our own security person to make sure that our area stayed private for our party. I'd definitely recommend this venue.

Birthday Party · 60 guests
Venue was great! The venue manager, leading up to the night, and bar manager, on the night, were fantastic and ensured all our guests were taken care of and we had the best night. The room was tucked away, ensuring we did have a private room for the entire night, and we even had our own security on the door with a guest list to keep it as such. Everything was prepared and taken care of before we arrived, and everyone could not be more helpful.

About The Book Club

Two spacious floors of a former Victorian warehouse on Leonard Street have been kitted out for daytime eating, drinking, thinking & meeting.

The interior blends the raw, pared-down character of the factory building with layers of bespoke furniture, mosaics and graphic lighting features, as well as the constantly evolving exhibitions that adorn the walls.

It's open, airy, drowning in natural light and the perfect environment for meetings, lunches, an afternoon cocktail or a quick game of ping pong!
