The BTP opened on Sat 11 July 2015 in the Grade II-listed 3-storey Jamaica House. The building has been sensitively transformed to seat 150, with a covered outside seating area with views over the marina and the Barbican. The cafe-bar has been designed with an eclectic mix of up-cycled, salvaged and restored furniture and fittings installed, including old gymnasium flooring on the walls and school chairs. A pay-and-display car park is situated next door. Real ale is not available.
