The pub features a locally created ale
A fully functioning pub has been built inside a 200 sq ft storage unit. Attic Self Storage’s transformed one of its units into a micro pub to mark its Bermondsey site launch.
The space was kitted out with limited edition ‘Attic Ale’ craft beer, served on tap from local favourite, Southwark Brewing Company.
With a working bar, seating and everything needed for a proper night out packed into just 200 sq ft, the night highlighted how much can be achieved within a self-storage unit.
Attic Self Storage launched its latest facility in Bermondsey last month, offering storage units ranging from 10 to 525 sq ft, with 24-hour access and app-controlled locks for residents and businesses in the area.
Southwark Brewing Company, based just around the corner from the Beer Mile, was founded in 2014 by Peter Jackson and Andy Nichol. Now producing over 150 different beers from its taproom, the brewing company supplies pubs across London.
Sophie Bagnall from Attic Self Storage said: “People use our storage units for all sorts of belongings and treasures, but turning one into a fully functioning pub for the night was a first. Bermondsey is home to one of London’s best beer scenes, and partnering with Southwark Brewing Company on Attic Ale felt like a perfect way to show just how much space one of our units can really offer.”
Peter Jackson from Southwark Brewing Company said: “We’ve been brewing along the Beer Mile since 2014, and the beer scene and community here keeps getting stronger. Seeing a pub take shape inside a storage unit was a first for us, and creating Attic Ale alongside gave us an exciting way to showcase our beer in a completely different light.”
