"Always clean and the staff are so helpful. I love the spaces and from what I have heard you can hire sections or the whole thing. The cafe downstairs is really cozy"
"On Behalf of Bedfordshire VERU we just wanted say thank you to Rachel H, Carl, Ian and the team for accommodating us and partners."
"Went to see band here called Blue Rinse, who were excellent. The bar gets very busy. Payments are card only here. Overall, a good venue."
"My children and I attended the Hat Factory on Saturday to attend a book club session. Unfortunately, the book club people didn't turn up so no session went ahead. However, the gentleman who was manning the desk and cafe offered to read a story to those of us who had turned up. Once he had set the atmosphere in the cafe for story telling one of the parents read a story to his daughter and invited my children to listen. Then the cafe man brought over popcorn for us on the house. We ended up having a lovely time just hanging out in the cafe. I want to say a heart felt thank you to the Hat Factory employee who went above and beyond expectations and turned our disappointment into an enjoyable experience and saved us from a wasted trip."
