Description

Set within the Grade II listed former Royal London Hospital building that has been brought back to community use as the new Town Hall and headquarters for the London Borough of Tower Hamlets.

The cafe/coffee shop space is located directly behind the main Town Hall reception - close to the Residents Hub and the Grocers Hall. The unit overlooks the landscaped courtyard between the New Royal London Hospital Main Entrance and the Town Hall. A new terrace is planned for Q2 2027 which will give the cafe exposure into the courtyard area.

The ground floor space is ready for occupation and the new tenant will benefit from footfall generated from Council staff(2,000 staff members) who work in the building as well as from members of the public attending the Residents Hub and events & conferences held at Grocers Hall. There is also potential for catering opportunities generated by Council events at Grocers Hall and the regular Council meetings held in the neighbouring Council Chamber.

Engineered wood floors offer a warehouse style finish complemented by an expansive space offering 3.5m ceiling heights, modern LED lighting and air conditioning throughout.

A fully fitted commercial kitchen (with extraction) is located in a basement area in the building and is accessed by service and goods lifts. The new tenancy is subject to a minimum 3-6 month rent deposit and rent paid quarterly in advance.

We believe the space lends itself to self to Events, Banqueting and Restaurant uses, a new lease is available and all new tenancies are subject to a minimum three month rent deposit.
