Business | Premises With Long Lease
Architecture & Interior
There’s very lovely laid back casualness about the ground floor premises which started out its life as a Victorian workshop at Printers & Stationers. Distinctive decorative tones and a bohemian ambience conjure up images of backstreet Parisian cafes. The reworking of the place over the decades had yielded something akin to a small warehouse than family home.
A series of interconnected rooms start with the main bar at the front with warehouse doors that open onto the street. These are periodically decorated with illustrations from invited local artists.
Beyond the bar is a kitchen/prep area that leads through to a rear salon with chairs and tables. Private dining events have been hosted here and it’s also a warmer place to sit for a drink during the cooler months.
Outside
A small open terrace from the kitchen could accommodate a few more seats when required, and also provides access to the customer WC.
And perhaps the piece de resistance is the licence for pavement seating at the front, making a wonderful spot to enjoy a drink with friends on one of East London’s most iconic corners.
In The neighbourhood
You’d be hard pressed to find another community like Shoreditch. It’s fun, vibrant and full of thoroughly interesting and creative types who love their neighbourhood. This exuberance is no better reflected in the colourful list of coffee shops, bars, clubs and restaurants rubbing shoulders with Printers & Stationers.
The highly-visible location just off Columbia Road provides a steady stream of eager customers, from loyal locals to those making the pilgrimage from Spitalfields and Brick Lane to Broadway Market, most notably at weekends.
And with exceptional public spaces, pocket parks, galleries and independent retailers, the footfall to this highly desirable pocket of the city fringe is always assured.
Transport & Connections
Excellent public transport has been another factor in the extraordinary growth of this destination neighbourhood. Two branches of the London Overground provide four nearby stations at Shoreditch High Street, Hoxton, Bethnal Green and Cambridge Heath, while London’s busiest interchange, Liverpool Street, has the tube, Elizabeth Line, national rail services.
It’s that’s not enough, multiple bus routes stop close by on Hackney Road, Kingsland Road and Bethnal Green Road.
