Great place and good location, inside its quite amazing as its an old church turned into a food market. a good atmosphere inside. Food its ok, everything was average. We tried the pizza, Thai and the gyoza place.

There's one paid for exhibition where you can pay what you like. Upstairs all the exhibitions are free. There seems to be a focus on local - east end - artists. What I like is the public/community feel about the place. It's separate but also part of the public space. The coffee shop seems to stretch into the gallery.
