London's ‘best new spot for culture’ according to Time Out, Woolwich Works opened in 2021 and is the perfect marriage of heritage and modern design.
Both historic and contemporary, grand and intimate: Woolwich Works boasts a series of newly restored, Grade II and II* listed buildings. The spaces retain many of their beautiful historic features but being a brand new restoration, they are also equipped with sleek modern touches and every state-of-the-art technical necessity.
With stunning views over the river, a bright, airy atmosphere throughout, and the ability to combine indoor and outdoor space, our flexible spaces are perfect for conferences, product launches, immersive experiences, away days, meetings, wedding receptions, parties and much more.
This ground floor space is one of our most adaptable rooms. Used for our smaller performances, it's perfect for dinners, parties and celebrations, and a great meeting space.
All four walls are finished in original exposed brick, with the short walls forming the canvas for subtle portraits of Eliza Adelaide Knight and Donald Adolphous Brown, whose stories the space celebrates. Discreet flexible track and spot lighting and an elegant timber floor complete the space. There are huge, arched sash windows down the side of the room that looks onto our courtyard, with an external door for direct access set in the middle. On the other side of the space is a door linking the room with our café-bar and Beanfeast above, and a private entrance from the riverside, perfect for events with guests arriving by boat.
The room is located close to gender neutral and accessible toilets. Similar in shape and size, Knight Gallery works well used in combination with Beanfeast for events where more than one space is desired.

Wouldn’t order a pint, or a coffee. Sausage rolls are good though. Good events put on by external companies but the cafe itself is pretty poor. In fairness to the staff none of them are baristas and they aren’t given training on what they sell. You’ll be pointing to the name of the spirit or drink you want on the menu then to the shelf or fridge it’s in. The above pint took about 5 minutes to pour and that was the best I was getting. Even an acknowledgment that it wasn’t up to standard from the guy and I felt bad for him. Under trained staff let down by whoever is managing it.
