Multiple seating zones so the room works for any crowd

- Comfortable sectional sofas for large groups to relax
- Private booth seating for quieter conversations
- Bay window corner perfect for performers or speakers
- Bar stool seating at the counter for walk-up service
Original murals, track lighting, and a copper still in the room
BCC Bar was designed from the ground up to feel unlike any other venue in London. Floor-to-ceiling original artwork, a working copper pot still you can see from your seat, warm track lighting, and panoramic windows overlooking Electric Lane below.
- Original commissioned murals throughout
- Projector and high-fidelity sound system
- Microphone stand for speakers and performers
- Panoramic windows with views over Brixton Village

Common questions about BCC Bar hire
How many people does BCC Bar hold?
BCC Bar comfortably holds up to 60 people for a standing drinks reception and around 40 for seated events. The space has multiple seating zones — sectional sofas, leather booths, a bay window lounge, and bar stools — so it works well for both relaxed socials and more structured events. WhatsApp us with your numbers and we’ll confirm the right setup.
Is BCC Bar fully private when I hire it?
Yes. When you hire BCC Bar the entire space is yours — no other bookings, no strangers walking through. Your guests have exclusive use of the bar, the lounge, and the full bar service. The BCC Bar entrance can be kept discreet, which is part of what makes it feel like a hidden venue.
What drinks are available at BCC Bar?
BCC Bar has a full alcohol licence and serves cocktails, a curated spirits menu including small-batch spirits distilled on-site, wine, beer, and soft drinks. For private hire, you can arrange a custom drinks package — welcome cocktails, free-pour spirits, or a tab for your guests. The bar team will help you design a menu for your event.
Can I have food at BCC Bar?
Yes. Catering is sourced from the restaurants inside Brixton Village directly below BCC Bar. Options include canapés and sharing plates from a range of cuisines — from Nuvola Pizza and Jalisco to Healthy Eaters and Mama Doe. We handle the coordination; you just tell us what kind of food suits your guests and budget.
Does BCC Bar have AV equipment?

Where is BCC Bar located?
BCC Bar is inside Impact Brixton at 17a Electric Lane, Brixton Village, London SW9 8LA. It is a two-minute walk from Brixton Underground station on the Victoria line. Enter through Impact Brixton and take the stairs up — BCC Bar is on the first floor. Most people in Brixton don’t know it exists, which makes it a genuinely surprising venue for guests.
Can I hire BCC Bar for a daytime event or only evenings?
BCC Bar is available for daytime and evening hire. Daytime bookings work well for corporate socials, away day breakouts, product launches, and press events. Evening bookings are popular for private parties, birthday celebrations, and networking drinks. WhatsApp us with your preferred date and time.
Can I combine BCC Bar hire with the Impact Brixton event space?
Yes. For larger events, BCC Bar is often used alongside the main Impact Brixton event space — the event space holds up to 60 people for presentations, workshops, or dinners, and guests then move to BCC Bar for drinks. This is a popular combination for product launches, award evenings, and corporate away days. See the event space for details.
