Roundhouse Studios Reviews

My favourite show venue in London; great atmosphere and acoustics yet very intimate - great proportion of bars and toilets to people as well!

Great venue, took me by surprise how big it was. Good sound and great atmosphere.

Been a few times, most recently for Bicep. Staff were really decent, bar was a bit chaotic as the evening went on but a great place to see bands.

One of the best music venues in London! Would recommend!

Great venue, good atmosphere! Large enough for a good crowd, small enough to mean you have a decent view with excellent acoustics. Johnny Marr was terrific.

Really nice events venue with many different stages each with their own unique charms and acoustics, also have studio spaces and courses in music production and other media based courses

The Roundhouse is a classic music venue in Camdem. The shape and size makes for an unusual acoustic experience. Many famous acts have played here.

I been to see One concert. Is not that big but is good and u have nice view from everywhere

This entire venue is stunning, the recording studios, the performance areas, everything. I saw Paramore play here and it was simply amazing! !

Nothing but bad experiences with their website trying to get tickets. Don't say you are going to release tickets at a time and then open the queue earlier than that stated time.

Beautiful venue, amazing sound and everything is clean but let down by the lack of knowledge and helpfulness from staff for people with disabilities or access needs. Real shame.

Compact venue for music. The layout makes you feel close from all points. Not too loud. Small bar and cloakroom leads to queues.

One of my favorite places in London! A place that displays quality content! Music performances, art shows, and do not miss a visit to the beach

A great gig venue with multiple spaces for different acts only 2 mins away from the tube. The one issue we had when at the love supreme festival was that the catering was being done by an external company who managed serving this number of people quite badly

One of the best venues around. Tough to get a beer tho.

A really great intimate venue to see a band. Just the right size to have atmosphere but not be crushed. Nowhere is very far from the stage. Calm and laid back with a cool vibe. Getting to and from via public transport is a breeze.

The best venue of this size in London. Clean, tidy, well maintained and friendly staff.

I've seen some great bands in terrible venues and some terrible bands in great venues but luckily for my first visit to Roundhouse I got the perfect combination

The venue is a really cool space with a big circular stage and a weird pointed room which does wonders for the acoustics although if you don't manage to grab a good spot your view of the stage can be ruined buy the supporting pillars. Still, I'd rather that than the roof fall down! The bar was located at the back of the venue so a bit tricky to get to from the middle but ideal if you don't mind hanging towards the back of the press.

Amazing venue great for gigs. lots of youth projects as well, great for local area.

Shirley Collins performing with the Lodestar band, part of the In the Round series

Music and events venue, less than 5 minutes walk from Chalk Farm Tube Station (Northern Line).

A variety of events are held at the Roundhouse, from Rock & Roll musicians, to corporate dinners, charity events and awards ceremony s.

Nice bar and Caffe in the building.

Great venue especially for music and Circus. The rooftop beach and outside film was a bit rubbish- over priced and they put an interval in the film to get us to buy food and drinks partway through. Not good mm

Amazing food and the unlimited breakfast pastries are amazing. If you go here don't get anything sweet as a main as you get unlimited pastries.

Nice venue, bars are always very busy during events. Good selection of beers for a London venue. Cleaner and airer than the academy venues.

Need to be right near the front standing or on the upper tier to appreciate the musicians. If you hover at the back of the standing area near the bars, the bands get drowned out by the chatter.

We watched Bohemian Rhapsody here the other day. The setup of the venue was a lot of fun with the bean bags, sand and beach bar feel. The rain started pouring just before the show, but luckily the venue does have a tent-like cover.

I had two minor dislikes: the rain was splattering at me as it was pouring down the sides of the tent, and also the loos were a bit far back inside the building. So if you don t to miss any of the film but you had some drinks, you really have to run for it if you want to get back quickly.

I have great memories of seeing De La Guarda at the Roundhouse (several times) some years ago, the venue was great for that spectacular, immersive performance. However, seeing Young Fathers there last week, the venue didn't work so well. The acoustics didn't come close to matching their performance at the Royal Festival Hall last summer, the soulful bits especially were just drowned out. Worse was the one-hour long wait to retrieve my coat after (and there were people behind me!) No apologies from meagre sraff, no response to a written complaint. My advice: don't take a coat, obviously, and consider if the artist you're going to see will work in this unusual venue.

Great venue - always enjoy a gig at the Roundhouse.

I came back for MA20, private event hosted by London College of Fashion, as always this venue never fails to impress.

Adam Ant was brilliant. The venue was really easy to navigate to and in. Welcoming & clean.

Watched Oneohtrix Point Never perform here. Quick and easy entry, prompt stage times, decent beer, amazing sound. Couldn't have asked for more from a venue. Loved it.

Fantastic place, one of London's best music venues, I've been coming here through five decades now and it's better each time.

Fantastic venue, very friendly staff and volunteers. Great atmosphere. Highly recommended.

The show was excellent but, I hope you don't get a seat in front of the concrete poles.

Top marks to the staff at the Roundhouse! I had standing tickets to see Richard Hawley, but due to a knee injury needed to ask for a chair. Isabelle (Isabella?), along with Gareth, went to a huge amount of trouble, both over the phone and via e-mail, to change our tickets to seated ones. The whole evening was wonderful from start to finish, Richard Hawley was brilliant of course, but the evening was !00% perfect by smiling friendly staff, brilliant security, great disabled access, the stunning building and amazing sound. If you've never been here before you're in for a treat! PS the nearest tube is most definitely Chalk Farm and NOT Camden.

Brilliant - With a guest who struggles to get about, the venue and staff were brilliant, nothing was too much trouble, swapped our standing tickets for seated at a moment's notice, lead us past queues and showed us to lifts etc. I can't thank them more for their care.

Super ambience, staff and above average sound system. I was at an Anne Calvi concert, which is fantastic as a singer and guitarist. She literally takes you away.

Really amazing venue. Not too big so never to far from the stage and sound is perfect.

Best venue for sound and vision. The artist can be seen from many angles and acoustics are perfect

Wonderful venue with excellent facilities for wheelchair users. Parking in their car park can be arranged in advance.

One of the best moments of my life. Brilliant sound quality, wonderful lighting, super cool venue

Amazing place, incredible staff, happy and friendly, simple, smiley people!

Great little venue
Close to artists
Transport and local facilities

This was the first time I had visited this venue and i wasn't disappointed. We went to see Mike Shinoda's first solo tour. The layout is easy to navigate and we were so close to the stage even when standing in the middle of the floored area. I would be keen to visit more acts here in the future as it was a great night. There is also lots of bars surrounding the venue as being in Camden you are never to far away from food and drink establishments, which is great to head to before the doors open at the roundhouse.

Great venue for gigs, been several times and always good. Bars get fairly hectic but no more than any other venue. Great location for pre drinks or after parties.

Great venue great play the barbershop is a must see play . I took my two teenagers who both loved it

GRMDaily Rated Awards. Been there for other things too.
It's a great venue, very relaxed, professional feel

One of the greatest nights of my life. I was so lucky all those years ago to win tickets to see the foo fighters thru the band themselfs when they played the iTunes festival. The roundhouse is a amazing venue and nowhere are you far from the stage. I was so lucky to see my favorite band here. A special moment being finding myself at the end of the bar that dave ghrol himself was stood on top of as he was playing stacked actors. You get the chance to see a band here you go. Best live music venue ever.

I was here on a stunning concert and all I can tell is DO DO DO DO FA FA FA FA!!!

Very scenographic venue
Easy to reach

A fantastic live performance from the Hot 8 and Kinetika Bloco - but the whole experience was ruined by a terribly run cloakroom. The cloakroom is not cheap, but we were happy to pay to keep it safe. HOWEVER, on going to collect our belongings, we had to wait in a hot, stuffy queue with a couple of hundred other people. Security informed us the cloakroom staff finished their shift at 11pm...just as the gig finished, so there was no one there to serve the crowd.
Having emailed customer services to express how ridiculous this is, the response was quite rude and didn't acknowledge any problem with the service. I will not be returning to the venue.
I missed my last train due to waiting in the queue for 2 hours to retrieve my belongings. I can't have been the only one.
