Pop-up micropub in 200 sq ft storage unit in Bermondsey

Attic Self Storage has transformed one of its storage units into a fully functioning micropub, occupying just 200 sq ft. The pop-up was created to celebrate the launch of the company's new facility in Bermondsey, south London.

A complete pub experience in a compact space

The unit was fitted with a working bar, seating, and all the essentials for a night out, all within the tight 200 sq ft footprint. The event featured a limited-edition craft beer called 'Attic Ale', served on tap and brewed by the local Southwark Brewing Company. The setup demonstrated the versatility of self-storage units, showing how much can be achieved in a small area.

Attic Self Storage opened its latest facility in Bermondsey last month, offering units ranging from 10 to 525 sq ft. The site provides 24-hour access and app-controlled locks for both residents and businesses in the area.

Partnership with Southwark Brewing Company

Southwark Brewing Company, located near the famous Beer Mile, was founded in 2014 by Peter Jackson and Andy Nichol. The brewery now produces over 150 different beers from its taproom and supplies pubs across London.

Sophie Bagnall from Attic Self Storage said: "People use our storage units for all sorts of belongings and treasures, but turning one into a fully functioning pub for the night was a first. Bermondsey is home to one of London's best beer scenes, and partnering with Southwark Brewing Company on Attic Ale felt like a perfect way to show just how much space one of our units can really offer."

Peter Jackson from Southwark Brewing Company added: "We've been brewing along the Beer Mile since 2014, and the beer scene and community here keeps getting stronger. Seeing a pub take shape inside a storage unit was a first for us, and creating Attic Ale alongside gave us an exciting way to showcase our beer in a completely different light."
