The Clearing at Quarterhouse

 

The Clearing, located on the first floor, is an immersive and sensory experience, created with vertical gothic tree-like forms by multidisciplinary architectural practice, Studio Ben Allen. Spacious and bright, the cafe bar is opened up and given the illusion of cathedral-like expanse, with floor to ceiling mirrors and windows. 

Enjoy a range of bottled and draught beers, as well as spirits, wines, ciders and soft drinks. Or relax with a hot drink and a snack before an event.
