“ Went to a techno event downstairs in the basement. Great sound system with top quality sound engineering work from staff (shoutout to Jack). The lighting was lovely. The staff behind the bar upstairs were quick and attentive. Shame the venue doesn’t have a cloakroom though, but that’d be my only negative comment. Looking forward to coming back ”
