What people are saying…

“I hosted a music event last December at The Gallery Cafe. The gig itself went well. Simone and the team were super accommodating and flexible. Any questions I had about equipment or the venue before the gig were answered quickly. It was a nice, relaxed atmosphere for an intimate gig! Would hire again in the future. Thanks, Gallery Cafe!”

Ella, Singer

“Simone and the staff were really accommodating with the little idiosyncracies of our event and showed enthusiasm to help us achieve it. The cafe vibe is perfect for our purposes and our guests felt at home when the event happened.”

Oscar, Sound Engineer

“The Gallery Cafe was a great location for our event. The Cafe Manager was prompt, and flexible, paid attention to our needs and supported us in making the most of the event. The food was delicious and conveniently priced, and everyone had a lovely time”
