Toffee Factory is home to a vibrant and friendly community and there is a range of ways you can engage with your neighbours. We have a full calendar of events, cultural programme, weekly street food pop-ups and other socials. The Valley also has many green areas to discover, alongside enjoyable river walks you can even call in at the farm and stables.

Social places

Toffee Factory provides the perfect place to work hard and also to unwind. From table tennis and basketball, to a rooftop meeting space, and on to pubs, bakeries and restaurants a stones-throw away, there’s great options for socialising and taking a break from work.

Making it easy to connect and collaborate

Toffee Factory is highly versatile. You will benefit from your own quiet office space but there are also many great areas of the building to discover and use.
