Our story

Heritage you can feel

41 Whitfield Street isn't a purpose-built venue. It's an early 19th-century London townhouse that was once home to skilled immigrant craftspeople, and later part of Pollock's Toy Museum — the UK's oldest toy museum until it closed in 2023.

Today it has been sensitively restored: the architectural bones are intact, with just enough modern comfort to make it a blank canvas you can make your own.

The neighbourhood

The Fitzrovia lifestyle

Fitzrovia has long been a haven for artists, writers, painters and poets — Virginia Woolf and George Bernard Shaw both called it home. Galleries, gardens and street art line its streets.

Charlotte Street, the “spine of Fitzrovia”, is a stone’s throw away with its restaurants and pubs, and the British Museum, Regent’s Park and Oxford Street are all within easy reach.
