The lockdown room

The Lockdown Room was born back in March when the UK went into Lockdown & The Espresso Room site within the English National Ballet was forced to close. Amongst all the panic & uncertainty, their team were determined to continue their newly launched ‘COVID friendly’ contactless grocery delivery service to the residents of LCI. After a few frantic phone calls to the developers, EcoWorld Ballymore saved the day & gave them the keys to an empty retail unit on Hopewell Square… and so The Lockdown Room was born!
Although very much still a ‘pop-up’ vibe, the site is now a firm favourite at London City Island and has become a well-known meeting place for locals & visitors alike. Whether that be for a morning coffee, a chilled lunch break in the sun or to enjoy some music.
