About Downstairs Lounge
50 Standing / Reception
40 Seated
Coffee aromas drift through our Downstairs Lounge, where vintage armchairs mix with metal café chairs around weathered wooden tables. We've watched this 800 square foot space transform from morning art classes with easels scattered about to evening birthday parties where guests dance between the furniture. The room wraps around you with its mix of quirky wall art and handwritten signs, each piece collected over years of hosting creative souls. Soft lamplight pools in corners where plush armchairs create natural conversation spots, while the open central area leaves plenty of room for mingling. We can fit 50 of your friends for drinks and canapés, or arrange seating for 40 if you prefer a more formal setup. Our eclectic décor seems to spark something in people. Corporate teams have brainstormed around our rustic tables, workshop leaders have spread materials across the floor for craft sessions, and we've seen more than one impromptu dance floor appear as parties stretch into the night. The space adapts to whatever energy you bring. Getting here couldn't be simpler, with Balham tube and train stations just a short walk away. Your guests can easily find us on Bedford Hill, tucked between Clapham South and Wandsworth Common. The air conditioning keeps everyone comfortable whether you're hosting a summer exhibition or winter celebration, and our audio-visual setup handles everything from presentation slides to party playlists. The lounge connects seamlessly to our café kitchen, where we prepare dishes from our extensive vegan menu throughout your event. If you'd rather bring your own caterer, we're happy to coordinate access and setup. Our team has hosted everything from book launches to milestone birthdays down here, and we know how to help your celebration flow naturally through the space.
