March 2025Excellent gallery with such a good range of art of different mediums so there is something for everyone to enjoy. Came away feeling very inspired and wanting to create! Free entry, you just walk straight in. I liked that everything you were looking at is also for sale around the whole gallery! There is a lift and toilets on both floors.

March 2025We visited the cafe during the week and it was really cosy and nice. The place is quite spacious and definitely ideal for prams plus you can check out the open exhibits that are updated from time to time. Coffee and cakes were fine but nothing too impressive. Due to it being part of the gallery, dogs are unfortunately not allowed. Service dogs are fine though.

January 2025Great place for original greeting cards, pottery, Jewelry and all manner of quality 2D and 3D art. Two floors full of it with event spaces and a café. Really worth a visit

February 2025I love photographing weddings at The Biscuit Factory! It’s such a cool, creative venue with so much character. The exposed brick, modern art, and industrial vibe make for such a unique backdrop for photos—there’s never a dull moment or space! The space has such a relaxed, laid-back feel, and it’s perfect for couples who want something a little different. If you’re after a wedding venue that is different and has a creative edge, The Biscuit Factory is an absolute gem!
