Queens Yard Hackney, E9 5EN

Queens Yard is superbly located overlooking the River Lee, adjacent to Hackney Wick Overground Station and close to the Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park and Stratford International. It has been described as the “beating heart of Hackney”. The Queens Yard summer party is one of the best events in the area with a food market, local culture, music, stalls and arts. The landlord has exciting plans to build on the success of the bar/restaurant/music/entertainment destination. The Queens Yard Theatre is award winning and combines classical theatre, contemporary performances and nightlife. The theatre supports artists to develop work and organises programmes in local schools and throughout Hackney. They also host internationally renowned DJs every weekend. “The future of Hackney has arrived in the form of the Yard”. Lyn Gardner, The Guardian Originally much of the site was occupied by confectioners Clarke, Nickolls and Coombes, from the late 1800s, making confectionary and chocolate until the 1970s, since when the site has evolved into 90,000 sq ft of mixed use accommodation including several beautiful Victorian warehouses. There are a number of very successful occupiers including Crate, Howling Hops brewery and tank bar, Potters Thumb, Colour Factory and Silo. Crate has some of the best beers and Pizzas in east London and Silo is the first zero waste restaurant and has a Michelin green star. We are interested to discuss possibilities for exciting operators to join the line up.
