Highly recommended!

We held our wedding reception at The Depot on 29 February 2020, and we loved it. The design of the venue - with three open levels - is perfect for an intimate feel even with 140 people. Tables are split across two levels; the third has sofa seating for guests - or kids - to relax on, while remaining fully connected to the rest of the room. We really love the modern pub decor.

The food is exceptional, and comes in very generous portions; the house wine is also excellent. There is also an excellent selection of craft beers. The serving staff were friendly and efficient right to the end of the evening.

We were really grateful for the help of Emer, The Depot's events co-ordinator, throughout the process of arranging the wedding. She was great at keeping in touch and advising us at every point; her friendliness stopped it feeling an intimidating process and made it manageable. Her help on the night of the wedding was great.

On the day itself the reception went seamlessly, which meant that we had nothing to worry about and could enjoy the celebrations. Emer and the team took care of everything, and were great at dealing with whatever circumstances threw at them - if there were any hiccups, they weren't noticeable.

Every guest we spoke to loved the venue and wanted to know how we'd found it. They loved the layout, the decor, the atmosphere and the food, as did we - we'll definitely be back for a drink!

It was everything we wanted, and would not hesitate to recommend The Depot to anyone looking for a wedding venue in London.

Thanks Emer and co!

Wedding Party 9th November 2019

We had our wedding party at the Depot this weekend and we could not recommend it enough. The venue is a beautiful space that easily accommodated 145 of us. Emer and the team were incredibly organised and efficient, as well as flexible. Our guests commented on how friendly and helpful all the members of staff were on the day. We honestly couldn’t have asked for a better venue for our party.

What a day... and night!

We cannot thank Emer, Jack and the rest of the guys at The Depot for making our wedding such a memorable, fun and stress-free occasion! We had our ceremony and reception there - from 2pm to 2am! - and everything went without a hitch, if you'll pardon the pun. Not only that, but the food - for both our wedding breakfast and evening munchies - was incredible! All our guests raved about the food and the venue! And Emer, The Depot's wedding fixer, was so helpful and calm, both on the day and during the planning process, that we knew our wedding was in safe hands.Cannot recommend The Depot highly enough! We're planning our first anniversary party there already... ;)

Our wedding

The Depot is an amazing venue. Emer and the rest of the staff are heaven sent. We literally sent over bits the day before and was blown away by how they transformed the venue. We even noticed little extras which made it look extra special. All the stress was taken away from me and my husband and from day one we felt safe in the hands of the Depot. All our guests loved the food and the Depot were happy to make last minute changes right up untill the day before the wedding. We has a relatively small wedding but the space of the venue and how it is laid out was perfect. The rustic look is amazing. More importantly the Depot is excellent value for money. Both my husband and I are very laid back and Emer was great in communicating with us and keeping us on track without making us feel under pressue. A great venue for a wedding and we will be back no doubt for Sunday lunch.

Thank you so much for making our wedding unforgettable xoxo

Unforgetable day at the Depot

We had our wedding the Depot and it was a fantastic day. The preparation and the planning went very smoothly and everything was well organised. Thanks to Emer, the bar manager who was very professional and helped a lot this day to go really fantastic. Our family and friends absolutely loved the place and we all had an amazing time. Thanks to Emer and all the staff for great experience and service, we could not wish for a better time. John and Mariya

14.09.19 Pan and Han Wedding

We both live very close to The Depot and had visited it several times for lunches and drinks. The place has a very authentic rustic chique look which is soo effortless! It was such an obvious choice for us to select it for our wedding! Emer - the manager took soo much time and effort to meet up with us, answer all our questions at silly hours during the day and night! All our guests have been commenting on how amazing the venue looked! The food was superb - I am a greek and even I enjoyed the vegetarian option!! The Depot has soo much room however does not at any point feel empty as the lighting is very good throughout with 3 different level for people to dance/chance and chill simultaneously!

We thoroughly enjoyed ourselves on our special day - thanks for everything down to the waiters who were so pleasant and helpful to all the guests!!

Very Happy we chose the Depot

Choosing the venue is a big decision and it does impact on so much down the line... but we are so happy we chose the Depot. Emer the event Co-ordinator was super helpful and made sure everything ran like clockwork, Lucy the head chef delivered really very good food exactly as per the tasting, The outdoor space and the mezzanine levels created different interesting spaces. We had a great day... our guests keep telling us they had a lot of fun. It was exactly as we wanted.... If we had to criticise... the toilets could do with refurbishing but otherwise 10/10!

Wedding 7th September 2019

I am not sure where I should begin - when we were hunting for a venue for our big day, the Depot was last on our list and we nearly didn't go - am I glad we did. The moment we both walked in, we knew it was the perfect venue. We were looking for something with a more rustic vibe but a little bit extra. And we found it. Emer is amazing and she took away all the worries a Bride has, I knew I was in capable hands and was hopefully not the Godzilla Bride but also due to the excellent selection of Draft Beers, the Groom actually was more involved in the face to face discussions.

The Depot is one of those Venues where you don't need too much decorations as you want the Venue to shine and that was great. We could deliver our decorations the evening prior and when we walked in the next Evening we were stunned of the transformation. Lucy and her Team provided an outstanding Buffet and Midnight Snack, Emer, Naomi and Team smiled until the bitter end and it was just perfect. Our Family/Friends did not stop raving about The Depot although I knew that some were very sceptical when we advise the Party would be at a London Pub. We can only say Thank You for making our day perfect and special. Because that is how The Depot made us feel - special - and not just another wedding party. There were many personal touches etc. When we reflected on the day - we both agreed that we would not change a thing. Thank you Emer, Naomi and Lucy - you and the Team where outstanding !!! We will be back

Amazing venue!

We had the most incredible experience of working with The Depot team, including Emer who really helped us plan the day to perfection. The decorations were amazing and actually, a lot of it was provided by them! The food was fantastic and was praised repeatedly by our guests! Zaneta and the team who were front of house during the day were so responsive to all the last minute adjustments that inevitably happen during a wedding.
On top of all of this, it was very reasonably priced and Emer helped us stick to our budget whilst providing plenty of food/drinks throughout the day/evening!
We can't thank you enough. Would love to do it all over again!!

Fabulous venue and staff!

The Depot was the perfect setting for our wedding and we felt very well supported throughout the planning process. Emer was extremely approachable, responsive, and accommodating of our needs. We had really positive feedback from guests not only on the layout / decor but also the food (we opted for salmon tartare / soup, steak / stuffed courgettes, and eton mess - with pizza later in the evening). On the day staff were extremely friendly and attentive from start to finish - e.g. bringing jugs of water and glasses on to the dance floor for the 2am finishers. We used our own PA system and the venue were happy for us to set this up / sound check / and store a couple of days in advance. They were also very flexible in allowing us to collect our remaining bits and pieces over a week later (although we didn't have too much stuff). Overall we would definitely recommend the Depot as a wedding venue! For us, the layout was perfect in creating a large but intimate space - we had 120 daytime guests plus approx 60 evening guests. Huge thanks to The Depot for making our day so fun and memorable. Best day ever!

Perfect London pub wedding venue!

We had our wedding at The Depot this July, and we really could not have dreamt of a better venue!

Emer and her team went above and beyond to make sure that the pub was transformed completely, everything ran smoothly and that all our guests were having a good time. The set up was absolutely gorgeous, our guests LOVED the buffet and canapes, and the service (serving food and drinks, clearing tables, moving tables aside for dancing etc) was impeccable despite our large party of 250.

They were also so accommodating to all our requests - answering our numerous emails, letting us store our decorations before the wedding, helping us set up the tables, decorations, and donut tower, and even storing decorations for us to collect the next day...we really could not have dreamt of better people to work with for throwing a successful party, and we were able to fully enjoy our wedding day all thanks to the capable team at The Depot!

The layout of the pub was absolutely perfect for our large party too - we loved that guests could take their pick of enjoy the garden outdoors, joining the ceilidh on the ground floor, or watching the dancing from the mezzanine and lounge area. The air-conditioning was a huge bonus too, especially when we all started dancing! And the projector and TV screens were just perfect for guests to view our growing up videos over dinner.

All in all, a really perfect pub wedding venue and a brilliant team that we could not recommend more!

Amazing venue, incredible food, brilliant staff!!

We booked the Depot N7 around Spring last year for our July 2019 wedding and have been completely blown away but how brilliant they've been! We originally found the venue on a wedding blog and after popping in for a drink and a nosey around we know it was the one for us.

The space is MASSIVE, there are 3 floors that all overlook each other (we loved that no space was sectioned off), really high ceilings, a huge bar and a big outdoors area with around 10-20 picnic tables.

Emer the wedding coordinator there is absolutely amazing, she answered our bizarre 3am emails and was always so welcoming with any requests we had -from taking delivery of 200 Krispy Kremes on the day to helping us put up bunting - she is SO helpful and made sure the day ran seamlessly.

The food is incredible too, and they're so accommodating with every dietary requirement (we had some vegan pizza + vegan Wellingtons mixed in and they were delicious!), It's a lovely mix of unpretentious crowd-pleasers done in an upmarket, visually impressive way.

Another joy is you can hire the pub until 2am which meant no cutting for the party early!

The staff were so helpful and the whole day exceeded our expectations. Thanks so much go Emer and the team for the best wedding ever!!

If the Depot N7 is on your shortlist, DEFINITELY book it!!!

Beautiful hidden gem of a wedding venue!

We decided to book The Depot as our wedding reception venue as we wanted a London pub for a relaxed feel but somewhere that still felt special and unique and that we could put our own spin on- The Depot was everything we could have hoped for!

The space is huge but even with our 60 day guests (80 evening) it didn't feel too large or daunting. We loved the industrial feel the pub has and the huge windows. The outside cobbled courtyard is also really great and our guests enjoyed sitting outside in the evening as thankfully it didn't rain!

Emer was so wonderful to work with, everything was seamless and easy to organise in the lead up to the day. We were able to have everything we wanted for the day all our ideas and requests were no trouble! Emer was around all day for our wedding from setting up in the morning to well after the first dance, her calmness on the day definitely helped to create the relaxed atmosphere we were after. The rest of the staff helping on the day were also incredibly friendly and welcoming to our guests.

The food was amazing and Lucy and the team were incredibly helpful in helping us with everyone's dietary requirements and allergies- we went for the 3 course meal. Our guests all commented on how good the food was and the evening snacks all went down a treat too! I only wish I had eaten more of them! Last minute food for the band was also no problem for them to organise which was a massive stress off our minds!

Huge thanks to Emer and all the Depot team for their help, we had the best day and it couldn't have gone better without your help.
