TT VENUE HIRE
Set over four floors between the vibrant areas of Shoreditch and Hoxton – arguably the creative hub of London – TT Liquor at 17a Kingsland Rd is a one-of-a-kind multi-purpose venue boasting brick-walled, wooden-floored interiors with a post-industrial aesthetic that reflects the character of the area.
TT Liquor is suited to a huge range of events from meetings to private parties to full venue takeovers. We offer a range of rooms for short-term rental from our grand 100sqm L-shaped Orangery room to our cosy 16sqm Palm room, all of which benefit from high ceilings, original wooden floors, historical features and excellent natural light. All our rooms are flexible in terms of layout, furnishings and servicing and are available for a multitude of uses including product launches, social events, meeting rooms, dining experiences, pop-up gallery spaces, photography or filming studios and temporary offices.
TT Liquor is conveniently located between Shoreditch High Street and Hoxton station – both within 0.3 miles of the building – it is also just a stone’s throw from Liverpool Street and Old Street stations. The building itself has a rich and varied history, beginning life in the 19th century as the old Shoreditch police station and it retains many of the original features including the original brick vaulted cells – now converted into booths – and even a secret tunnel to the former Old Street courthouse.
VENUE OVERVIEW
TT Liquor is a multi-faceted establishment dedicated to all things related to high-quality alcoholic beverages. Tucked away behind our liquor store on Kingsland road, the venue sprawls backwards over four distinct floors connected via a labyrinthine network of corridors.
Through the swinging saloon doors of the liquor store, and down our basement steps is our understated yet entirely memorable Cellar Bar, complete with a bespoke bar menu, banquette seats, a DJ booth, and our unique subterranean vaults. Formerly Victorian-era police holding cells, we’ve converted them into atmospheric alcoves, the perfect spot for a quiet drink or two.
Moving back upstairs we have our screening room, which has played host to a wide variety of events from music video premieres to after-work talks. Most recently it has been converted into a theatre space as part of our latest venture, TT Cinema, which entails us putting on a screening of a cult classic every month and pairing it off with a classic cocktail.
Further up we have a number of airy studios of varying sizes, which are used most often as classrooms for our cocktail making workshops, although these spaces are noted for their versatility and can be deployed for a wide range of purposes and a variety of events. They share the floor with a well-equipped kitchen, perfect for bespoke events, supper clubs, and set menu dining.
Moving up one more level, to the very top of the building, you will find two more private hire spaces, the Monkey Room and the Juniper Room at the front of the building and at the rear we have our Garden Roof Terrace, a secluded outdoor rooftop space, with its own bar and cover and heating for the colder months.
The Orangery
Perhaps the most versatile of our event spaces is The Orangery; this bright and spacious L-shaped room is located on the first floor of TT Liquor at the back of the building, away from the bustle of Kingsland Road. With a post-industrial aesthetic, featuring a wall of original multi-pane cast-iron framed windows and bordered with hanging plants and exposed brickwork, this grand room is perfectly suited to a huge variety of events and occasions from supper clubs, to birthday parties, to brand launches and is available for hire all year round.
The Orangery is our largest space, covering around 100 square metres, with ceilings over 3 metres high and a sprawling L-shaped footprint. It has tables and chairs to seat up to 60 guests or space for up to 120 standing, with a bar able to serve everything from tea and coffee to a full cocktail menu, a sound system with facilities for DJs and live music and a close proximity to our kitchen and roof-terrace, making it a great inclusion for multi-room events.

The Palm Room
At TT we’re strong believers in atmosphere, and our Palm Room is a space that possesses that in abundance, benefitting from original floorboards, exposed brickwork, and unique décor inspired by romanticised visions of the new world.
Despite being our smallest studio, at 16SQM, the space still boasts high ceilings, excellent natural light, and can comfortably accommodate 10 to 15 people.

The space is double aspect, boasting four tall, traditionally-proportioned windows along two facing walls – remarkable for a relatively small room. It also benefits from original timber floorboards, exposed brickwork, and unique palm tree wallpaper that gave the room its name.
Despite being our smallest space, The Palm Room has been utilised for a wide variety of purposes and occasions, again illustrating the venue as a whole, and the space’s versatility. In its time it has been transformed into a small, conveniently-sized meeting space, a cocktail making studio, a pop-up gallery, and even a branded fashion showroom.
Some highlights of the Palm Room’s past uses include:
A conference room for brand takeovers and industry training days.
As tertiary space for larger productions, to store equipment or as a break room.

The Monkey Room continues the building’s post-industrial aesthetic, with exposed wood floors and large timber-framed sash windows on two sides. Slightly larger than the Palm Room below it, The Monkey Room is well equipped for the same kind of uses, being used regularly for small to moderately sized cocktail classes and tastings and as a temporary office space or showroom.
As the newest studio at TT Liquor, the Monkey Room hasn’t seen as much use as its older siblings but has still played host to scores of cocktail classes of varying sizes and spent years operating as a versatile office space, used by both ourselves and outside organisations in both a temporary and long term capacity.
The Juniper Room
The other of our two most recent additions to our roster of private hire spaces is the Juniper Room. This room was formerly used as office space but has since been converted into another cocktail studio/event space.

The Juniper room is accessed through our side entrance on Kingsland Rd, by following the stairs all the way to the top of the building and entering through the door on the right. This is our second largest room, with a sizable square footprint able to accommodate large cocktail classes, meetings or conferences.
Like the Monkey Room, The Juniper Room hasn’t been used for as many events as the rest of our spaces but in the short time that it has been in use as a private hire space it has hosted countless cocktail classes and tastings.
As our second biggest room, The Juniper Room has proved invaluable for hosting larger groups for cocktail classes, tastings and events and before that had a long and successful tenure as our main office space.
Perfect for large cocktail classes for groups between 10 and 25 people.
Used to host special press and influencer classes for Cocktails In The City.
Great as a large meeting space or conference room.
The Shop Window
Our liquor shop window, ideally located on the vibrant Kingsland Road, is available to hire for a variety of purposes and applications.

Our shop window has played host to all kinds of displays since we opened, from our regularly changing liquor store displays showcasing the wide range of product and services available within to brand takeovers utilising the panoramic window for curated displays or transforming the entire shop front.
Perhaps the most notable of these takeovers was Peroni’s ‘House of Peroni’ which saw the entire front of the building transformed into a verdant, foliage-bordered italian style taverna.
The shop window is soon to be augmented with an awning and outside seating as well, making it even more striking and versatile.
The Cellar Bar
Understated yet entirely memorable, our subterranean Cellar Bar is an adaptable bar hire venue, suited to a wide variety of applications.
Located in the cellar of our specialist liquor store, these converted Victorian police cells span an arera of intimate, atmospherically-lit alcoves, booths and tables, which can comfortably accommodate 80-100 people. It’s also composed of several spaces, naturally defined, meaning you can rent the bar as a whole, one half of it, or just a single vault or alcove.
Its versatility, deceptive size, and attractive aesthetic make it the ideal venue for photo shoots, private parties, presentations, team trainings, and bar takeovers. The bar is available to hire as a stand-alone space, or alternately as the perfect drinks hub for a wider event spanning the entire venue.

Through the swinging saloon doors of the liquor store and up through our atmospheric Lounge Bar, we have our screening room. It has played host to a wide variety of events from music video premieres to after-work talks. Most recently it has been converted into a theatre space as part of our latest venture, TT Cinema, which entails us putting on a screening of a cult classic, indie gem or nostalgic blockbuster every night from Tuesday-Friday and pairing it off with a classic cocktail.
The decor is in tune with the rest of the building, and the space boasts oak-panelled walls and row upon row of reclaimed vintage cinema seats that were recovered from a derelict Welsh provincial theatre. These quirky touches are paired off nicely with modern, up-to-date technological fittings such as HD projection, Dolby surround sound, and a cinema-quality projector screen to ensure attendee’s viewing experience is as professional and seamless as possible.
Furthermore, its location, right next door to our Lounge Bar, and perched just above our intimate Cellar Bar, means that liquid refreshments will never be too far from attendee’s hands. On top of this, our liquor store – and therefore our well-stocked shelves of beer and wine – is mere metres away, meaning that everyone should be well-and-truly catered for. On top of this (literally) you will find our fully-equipped kitchen and Orangery banqueting space, opening up the possibility of incorporating food pairings in a building-wide event.
The Roof Terrace
Perched atop the building is the newest addition to our multifaceted venue, our secluded garden roof terrace. With panoramic views of East London and a verdant border of foliage giving it a peaceful hidden feel, guests can relax in one of our covered and heated booths and enjoy a seasonal menu of beers, wines, spritzes and specially created cocktails.
