Unit A is a prominent café and restaurant opportunity at Phase One of Wickside, Hackney Wick’s new canalside quarter. It faces directly onto the Hertford Union Canal within a newly landscaped public realm. The unit has a strong glazed frontage set behind the building’s colonnade, opening onto the towpath and new pedestrian bridge, which brings high visibility and steady footfall from canal walkers, cyclists and the surrounding community.
The unit totals approximately 2,142 sq ft (199 sq m), arranged as 1,647 sq ft on the ground floor and 495 sq ft on a mezzanine. It can be delivered to shell, CAT A or fully fitted, so the space can be tailored to the incoming operator.
Unit A forms part of more than 100,000 sq ft of commercial space at Wickside. It sits at the heart of one of London’s most vibrant creative neighbourhoods, close to CRATE, Barge East and Victoria Park. Hackney Wick Overground station is a two-minute walk away, with the Elizabeth Line at Stratford four minutes away and London City Airport 14 minutes away via the DLR.
Wickside sits at the centre of Hackney Wick, one of East London’s most distinctive creative neighbourhoods. It is known for its canalside cafés, bars, breweries and galleries. The scheme fronts onto the Hertford Union Canal, with established local favourites such as CRATE Brewery and Barge East a short walk along the water.
Victoria Park, one of London’s best-loved green spaces, is moments away. Across the River Lee lies Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park, home to London Stadium, the Copper Box Arena and the London Aquatics Centre. The area’s cultural and education offer continues to grow with the new East Bank campus, which includes V&A East, Sadler’s Wells East, UCL East and London College of Fashion, alongside the Here East innovation campus.
Transport links are excellent. Hackney Wick Overground station is a two-minute walk from the building, and Stratford is four minutes away by Overground. There, Westfield Stratford City offers an extensive retail, dining and leisure mix, and the Elizabeth Line puts the West End around 13 minutes away. London City Airport is around 14 minutes via the DLR, and Shoreditch, Liverpool Street and the City are all within easy reach.
