The Pickle Factory
London, East London, E2 9DT
Once a Pickle Factory in London’s cockney heartland, this warehouse then became a medical supplies storage space until it was finally reinvented by us as a venue. Now a blank canvas location, The Pickle Factory is a contemporary and versatile events space in the same style as its larger counterpart, and it is available either as a supplement to, or completely independently from Oval Space.
The Pickle Factory offers 255 sqm in a slightly askew rectangular shape, with white walls throughout. Steel beams across the ceiling facilitate rigging equipment overhead and the frosted skylights allow natural daylight to pour through: this is your ideal intimate blank canvas, ready for dressing & transforming by the imaginative minds of location managers, wedding planners, pop-up stores or restaurant operators – and anyone in need of an intimate reception space.
Operated by the same acclaimed events team behind Oval Space, The Pickle Factory boasts a large open plan reception hall, a dedicated kitchen space, disabled access, two separate entrances, toilet facilities and 3-phase power. Capacity ranges from 80 for seated dinners to 150 for receptions.
The adjacent courtyard can be utilised to facilitate loading-in, as an additional reception point or for off-street parking. Long-term hire, dry hire or collaborative projects are all being considered for this lovely addition to East London’s venue landscape.
The Pickle Factory is licensed for the sale of alcohol (on and off premises) until 11pm on weekdays and midnight at weekends. Clients so far include Google, Pop-up Cinema Video Dayz & frequent Oval Space
partners Forza Win.
