William W11 months agoWe got chatting to a local and he led us here. I wouldn’t never have found it otherwise. All of us were mesmerised by the scale of the space and the elegance of the architectural conversion. I enjoyed the warmth and generosity of the place and would recommend it to any visitors. It was rather quiet when we visited, but I have no doubt this place will be thriving with people in the future.
Fra Saerta year agoBeautiful place usually where big events are organised, such as comic conventions, comic con, big celebrations, presentations, conferences, exhibitions and other similar activities. This venue has also long term shops and restaurants and bars.
MDG Luciditya year agoNicely set up! Companies, work spaces, food square, fitness studio and more all under one roof. Before noon, no drinks or food unfortunately. Parking Park lane claims to have charging stations, however none to be found on the visitors floor of the parking, big minus for me.
Rich Greenwooda year agoWe called in here by accident! The re-imagined architecture is stunning. There was a design market which was amazing. And the food and beer is worth a try while you're there!
Angela De Luisi3 weeks agoVintage flea market. Was nice, just too much clothes that weren't vintage. Concerning the deco, kitchen and furniture: everything was vintage.
