A very unique venue which for some events will make a boring event much more exciting and interesting. Would call it very quaint. Has a complicated mix of old fashion with modern. Staff was very efficient and helpful. Food was great and also a little more quaint than your usual event.

The acoustics in this industrial-style venue are such that it would make an absolutely amazing place for a rave. But Ive been here for weddings and charity events, too.

We made an appointment on a weekday because apparently they dont have any time slots during the weekend to view the venue. Showed up and waited 20 minutes with Shamir being too busy to see us. Apparently we werent a priority, so we left. Very unprofessional, do not bother wasting your time. We also found out apparently there are time slots during Sundays available from his staff. Speechless...I dont feel comfortable booking anything or putting any trust in planning with these folks for such a big day of our lives.

This was a weird place.. cause its an old wood floor factory... but it was a lot of room for the event and we had a blast would recommend this place for large 200+ people events

There are better venues. Service was poor. Food was cold and inconsistent. I felt bad for our host.Update per response from the owner: It was a reception on Saturday evening December 15, 2018. If youd like me to be more specific, I will be but it wont be flattering.

Rude owner. My family is paying for the wedding and they slammed the door in my face when I tried to order a drink as the bar was pausing for the ceremony. Not coming back here

Factory 220Pros: It could be a great event venue despite being in a desolate area with several adjacent abandoned buildings. It has that rustic industrial look that can be easily transformed into a great space for any sort of event.Cons: They have serious customer service issues. I was forced to wonder whether this was even a ‘valid’ business venture. If you want crass uninformed people planning your event, then it is the place for you.Here are some lowlights. After a detailed description of my event and a couple of email exchanges with Ruti Galandauer clarifying the details, my quote consisted of a single sentence email—The price and a vague statement about “bringing in the chairs and tables”. I figured I could iron out details in a face to face encounter, so we set up a meeting to see the space and to discuss the event and all the services the venue could offer. I was supposed to be meeting with Ruti, who didn’t show and was apparently meeting with another client, off premises. An excuse that was offered after I asked several times when she would arrive. Instead, I had the unfortunate experience of meeting Shamir, whose social skills would be laughable if I didn’t have the misfortune of interacting with him. I was simply perplexed by the entire interaction. It was as if they were doing us a favor by potentially letting us rent the space. Shamir was just unnecessarily offensive at all turns. I wasn’t sure if it was unadulterated bias or just complete ignorance. For example, I asked if parking would be an issue with 2 big events going on at the same time. His answer: ‘You’re Nigerian right...we had a Nigerian event for 1000 people just the other day and the parking lot was empty. You know the people take buses or can Uber and carpool’. How is this an appropriate response except if, of course, you are socially underdeveloped...and in which case you should not be the face of any establishment that deals with people. That was one of a few ridiculous statements he offered as wisdom during this unfortunate encounter. Beyond that, the person I was scheduled to meet never showed and ‘Shamir the great’ had more useless answers to questions about services the venue could provide. I certainly feel like we dodged a bullet, because there’s no way I would feel comfortable with these people anywhere near an event that’s important to me.The space could be great, but the people that run it are an acquired taste. If ignorance and incompetence are not issues for you then you will have no problems at all. Unfortunately, there’s validity to the many negative reviews about this place. I seriously had hoped that wouldn’t be the case.

Excellent food. Excellent service. Space could use some updating, but I guess the idea is to keep it looking like an old factory. Pricey - on par with an expensive Manhattan restaurant in terms of quality as well as cost, but you dont have to schlep to Manhattan or pay for parking.

Was here for an all day event that was hosted and catered by the resturant here. This was a large event with a few hundred people and the food served was an odd choice of food, (canned sour kraut and sliced deli cornedbeaf, barely seasoned baked chicken parts and chopped seasoned potatoes) tasted bland and unappealing and kept running out and had to wait for more to be made before even half the group was served. The drinks served were an undrinkable bitter lemonade and strange ice tea as well as coffee with non dairy creamer. They cant serve milk and half n half in a venue like this? Honestly the only thing i liked was the real cloth individual wrapped lemon scented wet wipes haha. The location was alright looking inside and relatively clean bathrooms. I dont think id host a large event here again.

From the beginning, communication was terrible. The original manager messed up our first appointment. When the owner finally let us in we were left in a loft for 40 minutes until we finally left. We were promised free uplighting if we decided to book. The space itself is beautiful so we sucked it up. We only found out there was a new manager because we received a bill and when we said we had spoken to the manager they told us there was someone new (there wasnt until about 2 months before our wedding). No one at the venue communicates to one another and we were consistently repeating ourselves.So...day of the wedding. We had paid for lights and draping through another company. They had a Friday wedding and Sunday wedding and left the lights up so the other company that came in wouldnt have redo them....so we paid and had different lights. P.S., the free uplighting we received...I asked for white and they gave us blue...our colors were pink and white.The rooms were FILTHY. And even though we asked the manager, Brianne, to have them cleaned, they werent. My husband dropped a check off at the venue earlier in the week and walked through spaces to take pictures with Brianne. We decide we want to take pictures in front of a red door. DAY OF THE WEDDING WHEN WE GO TO TAKE THE PICTURE Brianne discovers that red door doesnt open.They had promised to have hanging lanterns that were not there. There were 1/4 of the amount of tables for the cocktail hour. And every table in the venue was dirty. Not kind of dirty but spilled drinks and flowers. My family and caterer were left to clean up.Also day of, Brianne schedule meetings to show the venue to other people. Two white wines were chosen for our open bar. They only had one and it wasnt one we had chosen.The list goes on. And since then, every effort to contact the venue and fix the situation has been fruitless. They accused our guests of drinking too much (1/3 of the guests dont drink) and have not offered any remedy. So, while the space is beautiful, it is most definitely not worth the headache or the money. Spend the money on a venue that does GOOD business.
