The team at the east London event space will be carrying out tours of the location from mid-July, in time for late-summer and Christmas party bookings.

Décor at the venue has been inspired by the history of the capital’s banking sector. The interior features stripped-back brickwork and leather booths, while the bespoke menu heavily features cuts of meat, rustic sides, vintage cocktails and cold beers.

The venue is currently running a Facebook experience for prospective clients, whereby users enter a code to unlock the ‘Forge vault’ to win a prize, including VIP tickets to the launch party.

Georgina Coleman, Late Night London account manager, said: "This is exactly what was missing in the city and I can see it quickly being the space that everyone is eager to book during prime slots and peak moments. With such a perfect location, an interior to die for and spaces to accommodate all party needs there is no dream that we cannot help you achieve at Forge."

Late Night London, part of Novus Leisure, most recently opened bar and event space Core in April this year.
