The Glove That Fits in Hackney

Lovely little event space, very underground/basement vibes, very small but nice for an intimate rave. Dark, loud soundsystem, enjoyed the little lamps by the decks thought it was a nice touch. There were enough toilets for the size of the space & staff were friendly. Would return!

Thanks so much to Ahmed for running the show 👊

Ahmed is great security and manager is great too! Love this place!

really good atmosphere , we had the pleasure to deal with Ahmed the security guard , so professional and polite - so lovely to see , really makes an impact on the venue

Great security by Ahmed, extremely friendly and welcoming and well run overall.

I went to the glove that fits on a Sunday night,(fossil archive)and the vibe was amazing,the staff are brilliant and so was the crowd,the man on door Ahmed was superb,highly recommend coming to this venue You will not be disappointed Nuff love ❤️

It's a great venue with awesome lineups of electronic music events. A place to see London's underground house and techno scene artists. I only spent a very short time there while collecting wristbands for another event, but definitely planning to be back and check it out better 😊

Really great venue. Staff great. Bleached Club excellent. Would definitely come again

Great staff, great events! Nice atmosphere, and reliable security! Ahmed was a star. Great artists booked as well!

Ahmed was very welcoming on the door, friendly crowd and perfect sound system

We ran a day event here + the crew were perfect start to finish. Sound tech was on point throughout, bar staff efficient and friendly. Special shouts to Ahmed on the door helping to make sure everything ran smoothly whilst maintaining a positive atmosphere. Outdoor space is really nice, hope to be back soon. - The Bricks N’ Mortar team

I love this venue! Hosted a private event there recently, the staff were all really friendly and accommodating - special thanks to Ahmed, the security guard, who went above and beyond to help us.

Really love the place. The staff are so lovely as well.

We promoted a night here and was awesome, Ahmed on the door set the tone and everyone else was just as friendly and respectful. Great place for a rave, good sound, space and overall vibe

Great place. All then bar staff are quality. Gregg was incredibly helpful and the security Ahmed was class. Did a great job managing the noise and the crowd. Thank you so much for looking after us.

Great venue! And the music at the Crescent outdoor party was really good

Sweet spot, grungy basement vibes. Ahmed was a chill dude as were all the other staff :)

Security Ahmed and bar staff were all super nice and helpful. Great venue

Wonderful space! Great team, security Ahmed so welcoming and bar staff & manager Greg happy to help!

Ahmed was incredible as a doorman and looked after the visitors incredibly well, very charming and friendly, I would come again because of his service! His talent really stood out!

Mamon Ahmed security is amazing and really respectful

We hosted an event here Friday the 12th and it went amazingly well. This venue has one of the best sound systems in London and is a complete hidden gem. Greg, the owner looked after us extremely well and was hands on with any issue we had. Ahmed on security was friendly, fun but kept idiots out of the venue which kept the vibes in the crowd perfect. The barteam and coat room were superb, extremely friendly and looked to enjoy themselves. Thanks for hosting us guys, it was an absolute treat!

Have worked with these guys for a while running events and they've always been super helpful and professional (shout out to Mamon Ahmed, bossing security, and Greg making things run smoothly). Venue itself is sick, proper good little club basement with more soundsystem and vibes than you'd expect - one of my favorite spots in London.

Outside space is fantastic! What a gem,

great venue, great system and great team, Mamon Ahmed is a legend. Looks after the punters

Amazing staff great sound system

Run a few club nights here now, always a fantastic team and a brilliant venue and sound system. The GM Greg is incredibly helpful and makes sure the whole night runs smoothly and then some. Security (Mamon Ahmed) is brilliant and takes care of everyone and helps bring people passing by in.

Mamon ahmed from security team was amazing during my visit to the venue. He kept us safe. Friendly and warmth welcoming energy.

Amazing event loved the atmosphere, friendly & professional security and staff

I was lucky enough to play there a week ago. Great venue, with a good sound, lights, dancing crowd and friendly staff. I hope to see you again soon 🤗

As a new night we'll be forever grateful for how smooth and enjoyable the whole process was. Greg helped us enormously to set everything on time before the party, but also supported us throughout the night unconditionally. The bar staff were super friendly and made our crowd feel very welcome! Also big thanks go to Mamon Ahmed from the security who made sure that everyone feels safe and able to enjoy the night without any disruptions. BIG HUG! We can't wait for the next one!

Mamon Ahmed was so kind and generous. He made our night by being so welcoming!

Mambo Ahmed top guy helped me out

Great venue, but what makes it unique is that it has some of the soundest security i’ve come across. Big up Mamon Ahmed.

Nice little intimate venue. The staff were very friendly and the atmosphere of the crowd was great. Definitely come back again.

Intimate basement club. They light incense, wonderful smell

Great - and interesting - music, Great staff, Great beer

Really great night. Mamon Ahmed was the best door man Iv ever met. Made my evening

Staff were welcoming and helpful. Not a great selection of mixers, no sugar free options available. Atmosphere was great but definitely a “night club” package. Toilets were especially egregious. Prices a bit higher than what I’m used to.

Only bottled non-alcoholic beer, the beer garden is very cool and energetic though.

Banging music, delicious negronis, dank vibe.

venue was a . The french dude was a hectic boyo

Nice venue, well fit in the heart of Hackney with good capacity for intimate events to begin or just keep your night going. Good sound system and a vast selection of drinks.

Cool venue, nice atmosphere and friendly staff and security what more can you ask for 👍

Was here for Dave the drummer and Chris Liberator. Just a pure dirty intimate smokey sweatbox with a banging system. Staff behind the bar and security are 10/10 super friendly and make you feel safe while also letting you go as wild as you want. Please never ever change this gem 🙏. Proper filthy rave spot

Big fan of this venue, safe and intimate environment. They always have up and coming DJs preforming which is super fun!

lovely crazy cosy venue. great sound. great for raving and a little bit of misbehaving.

Great vibes! Amazing guests, always a good night!

Great venue, intimate vibes, and great drinks selection

The bouncer was horrible and acted outside his jurisdiction. The place is okay, but it was a bit too grim

Exactly what I’ve been looking for!

(Went for a dj set) For a DJ venue, weird that there was absolutely no sub bass in the sound, literally sounded like they didn't have subwoofers. However, the speakers did sound good and clear, just not much weight to them. Bar can get rammed an so takes a while to get drinks.

Nice underground venue, surprisingly good sound system in the basement

5 stars. That's all need to be said.

amazing venue with particularly good sound system in the basement area, approachable staff and kind security

Lovely place with amazing basement with blasting sound, nice bar staff and chill out area.

This is so lit. Didn't catch covid. Drinks are cold, staff are warm and friendly. They gave me water, even though there's no profit in it

Fantastic, cosy place! Great vibe, music and sound. Will be back soon <3

Proper basement business with a belter of a sound system. If you like your music wonky, your crowd friendly and your air mouldy! Love it! Go before the luxury flat people close it down...

Tiny but great feeling venue, can't wait to promote an event in there!

Amazing Team here !! Nice and cosy place, perfect for a night out with friends, to enjoy live music in the basement !! (It can also be a nice place for a “before”) Close to Hackney central (overground) I liked it !!! Totally “underground” style

Amazing venue loved it will defo recommend to friends and family the stuff are AMAZING!! Vids all positive security is great all and all THE spot

Cool pub with cool live music in the basement, great sound

Hidden away on the corner, this little bar has a funky downstairs space for dancing and sneaking around. They could do with some AC upstairs though. Gets pretty steamy in there so be warned.

Lovely little pub - there was a great art installation downstairs tonight - and they serve Tiny Rebel beer (just saying...)

Funny night or randomness is there once, the bar staff seemed cheery and chatty, the size of the crowd was rather modest to say the least the night I passed with a friend, we needed the toilet ended up just propping up the bar stool for one drink. Young crowd on that night and kind of old school sweaty dingy small club with sticky walls and UV light downstairs, just missing the sticky carpet and cigs indoors would complete the vibe totally. Would work for a booking for a small bday party if your were looking for venue and didn’t need snazzy but wanted to rave, would be easy to fill as it’s a decent size for that kind of party, would fill easily and not feel empty.

Nice layout. Good music. Good ambient
