The Old Cold Store

The Old Cold Store is a distinctive industrial event space in Nottingham, available for private hire through Castle Rock Brewery. Once used to keep beer cold for the brewery, the venue retains a practical, pared-back character and offers organisers a flexible setting to shape around their plans. It is suited to a range of gatherings, including wedding receptions, corporate meetings, private celebrations and live music events.

The large, open space works as a blank canvas, with a private full-sized bar serving guests. Organisers can make use of the venue’s sound system, projector, plasma television and free Wi-Fi, making the room adaptable for presentations, entertainment and social occasions. Dining and buffet packages are available, giving planners options for providing food alongside the event space.

The Old Cold Store is close to Nottingham railway station, making it convenient for guests travelling into the city. Its connection with Castle Rock Brewery and the neighbouring Vat & Fiddle gives the venue a strong local identity, while the industrial setting offers a different feel from a conventional hotel function room. The space also hosts live music and brewery events, demonstrating its capacity to support both public occasions and privately arranged functions. For organisers seeking a flexible Nottingham venue with its own bar and essential presentation facilities, it provides a practical starting point for planning a gathering shaped to suit the occasion.
