Looking for a nice 'working men's club' style location

12 years, 8 months ago - SP User

I'm making a small no-budget music video and am after a really nice atmospheric location somewhere in London, we originally had our hearts set on Bethnal Green Working Men's club but they're not responding to our attempts to contact them and I thought I'd put the feelers out for any similar places with that kind of vibe. Any thoughts Shooters?

Hi Gary
You could try the Mildmay Club in Stoke Newington, details here : http://newingtongreen.org.uk/image/mildmay-club-34-newington-green-n16-9pr . I've been to a few parties there and it's a great venue. Truly up-to-the-minute interior, if your minute is in 1975. They may not like the "no-budget" angle, but good luck!
All the best

£1,000 a day, that's criminal... If you go up north, they'd be chuffed to let you film in their club

HI Gary.
Benthnal Green are very greedy now. They tend not to respond as soon as they hear NNo-Budget. They usually charge a minimum of £1,000 a day to use the place to film in.
Saying that, YOu could try Orford House Social Club in Orford Road, Walthamstow, E17 9QR 020 8520 5687.
It's a short walk from Walthamstow tube and the people are usually quite community orientated. If any of your team are based in the area they might talk to them initially and mention you're a local filmmaker. Best of luck. Frank
