It's a great space, super flexible in terms of how you could use it. We hosted a workshop and we really liked being able to use the back rooms as break-out spaces. Communication was easy and the hosts were really accommodating and helpful when we arrived.

This is a gem of a space with a wonderful ambience and very friendly and accommodating staff. It is set up as an event space for the evening (great place to host a party), but my use was for a small group training during the day. It is in an old historic building with brick walls and oak (possibly) wood floor, and lots of great artwork. Highly recommended.

The space worked very well for our 3-day workshop. The team at FriendsQuarters was also very helpful. I would definitely book again!

Legendary night, we threw down. Place was homie and gorgeous, guests felt comfortable. Jordan and team are all very lovely and accommodating and communicate well. Really felt like Jordan was one of us making sure the hype was hyping. We brought our own food (pizza, sushi, cake) and drank; and we had two amazing bar tenders. It was truly a magical night and couldn’t have done it without friendsquarters hope to see you guys again !
