Searching for a rooftop wedding venue in central London that balances industrial heritage with a truly modern flair? Welcome to Smiths of Smithfield. Nestled in the heart of Farringdon, our Grade II listed building offers a spectacular backdrop for couples who want their big day to be as iconic as the London skyline.
Long before it became the four-floor gastronomic powerhouse it is today, Smiths of Smithfield served as a storage facility for the historic Smithfield meat market just across the road. We’ve lovingly preserved that character, with exposed brickwork and original features that tell a story of London’s vibrant past. For couples seeking a historic wedding venue in London, there is simply nowhere else like it.
Whether you are planning an intimate gathering or a grand celebration, our spaces are designed to impress your guests.
-
The Grill: Located on the second floor, this space is perfect for a traditional wedding breakfast. With its warm, inviting atmosphere, we can host up to 150 guests for a seated meal.
-
No.3 Rooftop: Our crown jewel. This light-filled space is ideal for your evening reception for up to 200 guests.
- The Outdoor Terrace: Step outside for a glass of fizz and take in the panoramic views of St. Paul’s Cathedral and The Shard. It is the ultimate spot for those golden-hour photos that your guests will be talking about for years to come.
- The First Floor: Want to keep the rooftop a surprise for the evening? Have your arrival drinks on the First Floor with space for up to 120 guests for canapes.
