We celebrated our daughters wedding here recently. It was a fabulous venue, very stylish. The staff were all professional, very friendly and accommodating. The atmosphere was exceptionally good and we had a wonderful time and made many many lovely memories, which we will treasure forever.

I’ve photographed a couple of weddings here recently and I’ve been really impressed by how friendly and professional this venue is. It’s a compact space but can cater for a decent crowd - up to 60 for a sit-down meal and more for a standing event/party. The style is industrial (as befits the location) with loads of lush greenery, candles and the all-important disco balls, and a covered outside area. As a wedding vendor, the staff treated me extremely welcomingly and kindly and I’ve heard from my clients that they also felt well looked after during the booking process. The food was amazing. It’s a great place for a cool East London wedding reception and I hope to work there again!

I photographed a wedding here on the weekend. It was one of the best venues I've been to. The staff are so amazing and friendly, they really look after their suppliers. The wedding breakfast room is a perfect combo of industrial and high end but still has a cool edge to it with its white brick and metal frames. I would like to that the staff at the venue for being so lovely to me and I cant wait to be back again.

We can’t recommend The Hackney enough as a wedding venue! When we were planning our wedding, my now-husband and I were on the lookout for something a bit different—not too traditional, with a cozy, intimate vibe. The venue’s industrial style caught our eye as soon as we walked in for the first viewing and knew right away it was the one for us. Working with Hugo, the venue coordinator, was absolutely seamless. From our first planning meeting to the food tasting, everything felt super smooth and stress-free. Hugo really knows his stuff and made the whole process so easy for us. One thing that really stood out was the planning spreadsheet Hugo gave us. It broke down all the costs and let us play around with different options to see how they’d impact the final price. There were no hidden surprises—just total transparency. We were a bit nervous about having an all-vegetarian menu, worried that some of our meat-loving guests might not be into it. But the food was a massive hit! Even the pickiest eaters loved it. People are still talking about how amazing the dishes were—especially the smoked butter, which was a crowd favourite. Overall, The Hackney was the perfect backdrop for our wedding. It had the right mix of unique style and incredible service. The Osbornes
