Urban Winery with lofted lounge event space
and set up a wonderful space for our event. There is a welcoming sitting area with tables on entry, a larger event space with bar, and a cozy loft with seating area that looks out over the main space. The lighting and decor was nicely set up, and we were...

Event Space Inside the Public Market
guest commented on how unique and eclectic the space was. It was a combination of industrial, artistic, anime, LEGO land. It was like a pub and underground club scene all at once. Frank the host was very accommodating and patient with all my requests. He was there rob help set...
Xiomara G.
Fully Furnished, Parisian Inspired Space with Impeccable Natural Light for Any Memorable Gathering
holiday party and it was perfect! We had 22 people and it was comfortable and roomy enough for a full meal along with a bar, a table for desserts and another for starters. We brought in food warming elements since there is not place to heat the food- something we...
Dana G.
Private Indoor Pickleball Facility with 2 Courts, Private Event Space
more perfect. There was enough space for ~30 people to play and hang, plus room for the kiddos to run around. The self-serve bar made drinks easy, and there was a ton of counter space for food. Everyone was super impressed with the space and I’m sure there...

13th Moon Gravity Well – cozy neighborhood event space & bar w/fireplace
Great space for a cozy get together. The ambience reminds me of a bar in Europe. Ari was the bartender and was accommodating with our decor requests. He was in good spirits throughout the whole event too! Thank you, Ari...
April J.
Upper Room Portland - Downtown Industrial style Loft
how lovely the event and space were. It was perfect for my husband's 40th birthday party, having everything we needed - a built in bar, sound system, big screen for presentations, and lighting. The only hiccup was in communication. The space was undergoing a renovation immediately before my event, but...

Industrial Cafè-Style Event & Meeting Space
Great venue with fantastic staff. Food was delightful and plenty of it. We utilized the bar and drinks were great and bartender was super nice. I would highly recommend this space and caterer. Thank you from all the ladies...

Historic pub & venue in the heart of Ballard
Great filming spot! The Conor Byrne Pub is very photogenic and incredibly accommodating. Cameron was communicative and insightful, and although he was not available to be with us onsite for filming, he staffed us with Mark who was very relaxed and willing to help us dress things up around the...

This space was absolutely perfect for our rehearsal dinner! The wine bar is gorgeous, and has such a great atmosphere
Jessica N.
Modern Downtown Loft for Events & Shoots
This was a prefect venue for our engagement party! The space is well thought out with plenty of seating and a large bar to prepare/spread out food for guests. Cedric was a great host who helped us carry our stuff up to the venue and set up our additional staff...
Isabelle P.
Industrial Chic Wine Lounge
and let us show up earlier than book time for set up. During our holiday party, he was available and rocking it behind the bar pouring wine. Everything about this space was perfect - from the layout, the seating, the music, the location, the vibes! Highly recommend booking this space for...
Allen P.
Unique Event Space
maximum comfort. She really made this event successful, and if you are looking for an event space that is not directly linked to a bar or other service venue, this should be at the top of your list...
Michelle R.
Daylight New York Style Loft with Exposed Brick, Natural Hardwood, and Panel Windows
Great space, larger than it appears in the pictures. Bar area was convenient and included a cooler for drinks. Street parking was easy to find even for a Friday night. Nik was very responsive to all our questions, would definitely recommend the space...
Michelle S.
Modern Downtown Loft for Events & Shoots
This space is AMAZING! Super swanky vibes, easy connection to A/V, small kitchen space and bar made it convenient for our catering team. The ONLY drawback to this space is that there is no lift, so all F&B must be hand carried up, but it would not deter me...
Mikeisha T.
The Penthouse
only con is that you have to use their catering. I rented space for 2 hours but the host did not have food and bar ready when my guests arrived. I understand that they had another event during the same time, however assured is they could accommodate both. Having my...

13th Moon Gravity Well – cozy neighborhood event space & bar w/fireplace
This was such an adorable bar for my birthday party. Ari always replied to my messages quickly. It was a fun place to have a small gathering. There’s a projector that was extremely useful during my event. The drinks were also delicious! I would love to come back to...

Creative Event Space + Retail Pop-Up
and the instructions to shut down the event space were easy to follow. The building which the venue is in is shared with a bar, but the staff were super respectful of sharing the space even with the loud music. They even enjoyed the music...

Such an awesome space for a fun private pickleball event. Loved that the space was heated and there is a self purchase bar for beer, Jell-O shots + wine on tap...
