In one week, I attended two major events at two different venues. Hudson Mercantile was the best…read morevenue out of the two. Here's why: 1) Space: The outside if unassuming, but once you go inside, you see each floor is one big open space. The building has several floors with fast elevators that take you between the floors. True to a NYC building, there's an amazing rooftop at the top making for a great cocktail reception space. 2) Food: Every meal was amazing starting with a feast of sliders. There were beef, crab, tofu, any type of slider for every diet and preference. Snacks were changed throughout the event from a pretzel wall to a donut wall. Better for you options included veggies and a pickle jar. The rooftop reception had bite sized appetizers from small hamburgers in a fancy black box to kebabs. Everything was so good! They also provided quality coffee throughout and Coca-Cola products. 3) Service: The staff clearly take their jobs seriously. They are hard working, not intrusive, and run the event so well. 4) Location: It's just south of Hell's Kitchen close to the Hudson River. Easy to walk to and/or take the subway. 5) Vibes: It's an industrial design with lots of open pipes, etc. It's very Instagram worthy! If you want to wow your guests at an event, book Hudson Mercantile.

Props also due to the amazing catering crew this year (2022.) From the absolute doll of a barista, to the attentive gentlemen at the catering counter, they couldn't have taken better care of us and our visiting customers. The space itself is bright, setup is easy, even on the 6th floor, and the building is in a great location for those weary of the Javits hustle. Can't wait to go back next year!

The pros : - GOOD AC -GOOD SERVICE - NICE CLEAN BATHROOMS - CHANDALIER & MIRRORS - NOT TOO STRICT - GOOD PRICE - YOU HAVE AN OPTION TO PAY FOR EXTRA HOURS WHEN YOU GIVE IN THE FINAL PAYMENT ( a week before the date of your event / party) CONS: - NO SEPERATE ROOM FOR PERSONAL STUFF ( ALTHOUGH I USED A BIG SEPERATE BATHROOM TO STORE MY STUFF IN , HAD IT LOCKED so nobody could enter , it was clean and spacious enough for plenty of stuff ) - SMALL KITCHEN . Overall this party hall was great , I was definitely satisfied with the service thanks to Winnie ! The party was dub & there was no problems.. The owners let you breath & don't try to stop the party for any little thing like in other places. Designedly recommend renting this place! If you have a question don't doubt on asking Winnie , she's willing to work something out for you!! Love this place , it's nice, simple but still elegant & great service I loved how it looked!

The staff was very professional yet made everyone feel at home. The drinks were good. The food was partly provided by the party host and served by the venue. There were two nice clean (slightly small) bathrooms with a shared sink. It's July so the weather outside was hot. Inside, there was plenty of air conditioning in the back room (by the dance floor) with less up front. Unlike large event spaces in Manhattan, this one had a more cozy intimate atmosphere. The location is accessible by subway and car. Alternate side street parking is available, depending on when you go - it can be a little difficult finding a free parking spot.

I spent months searching for a bat mitzvah venue that felt special - something beautiful,…read moresophisticated, and still within a realistic budget. I thought I'd have to compromise. I even put a deposit down somewhere else, but the space never felt right and I couldn't shake the feeling of disappointment. I kept looking... And then... I found Lights on Kent. The moment we walked in, my daughter's face lit up as you can see from the video! The space is stunning - bright and elegant even before adding decor. I knew right away this was our place. I cancelled the other venue immediately. It was the best decision I made in the entire planning process. Charlie, the venue manager, was awesome. He assured me I didn't need to overspend to create something magical. He supported me from start to finish, responded to every concern, offered creative solutions, and genuinely cared about us having a meaningful, joyful event. After the bat mitzvah, when I needed help navigating some vendor issues, he stepped up without hesitation. That level of support was priceless. Our guests were taken aback by how gorgeous the room looked and how special the atmosphere felt. If you're looking for a breathtaking space, flexible and wonderful people to work with, and a venue that truly cares about your event, Lights on Kent is it. I am beyond grateful to them for helping make my daughter's bat mitzvah feel as beautiful and special as it could. While I continue to have issues with a vendor, post-event, having their support has helped me process, helped me sort through the problems, and this level of support is above and beyond. Some places are just venues. This one felt like, and still feels like their on my team. Thank you LOK!

Once upon a time a metal factory.... now it is presently a lovely venue that hosts various private events. Yes, one can book 26 Bridge for their wedding, parties, anniversaries and all types of other celebratory functions. We came here on 2/2/19 to attend La Tablee NY Tasting (thanks for the tickets!). As we pulled up in front of the place we were kindly greeted by a gentleman at the front door. The La Tablee NY Tasting is a celebration of over 100 wines of the Rhone Valley (Northen + Southern France) . The La Tablee NY Tasting was already in full swing as we checked in, placed our outerwear at the coat check and were each given a wine glass and wine tasting booklet. Before proceeding towards any wine/food tables, we glanced at the map indicating where each wine/food table was located. We went to each table, sampled things and marked it off in our booklet. There was space to write notes pertaining to specific wines that we liked. Because I enjoy the flavor of white wine and since there was fewer of those, I can safely say that every single white wine I had was my favorite-lol. Along with the wine tasting, there were delightful tasty treats to sample from restaurants/eateries including Atrium, Andante Dairy, Bar Boulud, Celestine and Frankies Spuntino. The Charcuterie platters (fresh cheeses, breads, crackers, fruit and meats) were so good. We tried Toscanna Aqua Penna for the first time (yes, I am very late-lol) and this bottled water is smooth + refreshing. Shout out to Columbe staffperson Ellie as she made the best Latte.... Bridge 26 boats wooden floors and high ceilings in which the natural sunlight radiates through the venue. There are bathrooms on the upper and lower levels and the downstairs bathroom has a connecting "powder room" so that brides, birthday boys/girls and eveyone in between can freshen up and get ready for their festivities. 375 people can be in the venue for standing events and a bit over 200 can fit there during seated events. The Bridge 26 website has a section in which you can send them an email to make general inquiries on booking this space. The La Tablee NY Tasting was fantastic and it was cool to attend it at 26 Bridge.

Weddings venues with a rustic Brooklyn feel would be perfect here. It a bit of a walk from the Train station, and there's not much parking other than street parking. Location wise it's good for the scenic views if you walk out to Brooklyn Bridge park to take pictures, and the cobble stoned streets in the area.
