The Lower Deck

Description

We’re a high-quality basement venue offering great-value food, drinks, and entertainment, located within the historic Dreadnought Building on the University of Greenwich campus.

Dating back to 1764, the Dreadnought has a rich past — originally serving as an infirmary for the Royal Naval Hospital before later becoming part of the University of Greenwich. Our venue draws inspiration from the lower decks of historic vessels, spaces where sailors once gathered to eat, drink, and unwind during long voyages.

With a capacity of up to 480, our venue features a range of flexible spaces available for hire. Open to the public, we’re the perfect setting for everything from intimate birthday celebrations to large-scale formal events. Get in touch to explore our spaces and plan your next event.
