Power Lunches

Power Lunches Arts Café was a music venue, rehearsal space, and creative hub located on Kingsland Road in Dalston, a district of the London Borough of Hackney.

[1][2][3] It started out with gigs planned to be only at weekends, but later became a prominent feature of Hackney’s DIY music scene with gigs most nights every week.

[1][4] Though originally genuinely also a café, it eventually stopped serving food.

The café hosted performances in its basement, the absolute maximum capacity of both floors was 150.

[1] These were most often concerts by local bands, but also saw acts from elsewhere in the UK, as well as further afield.
