We are a friendly, family-run business centre, with a diverse range of tenants, some of whom have been here since we opened in 1983! FBC Clerkenwell is based in the heart of Islington's oldest business district. Sandwiched between Kings Cross and the bustling City, our inspiring workspace offers a flexible hub for creatives, innovators, and entrepreneurs looking to make their mark.

We look forward to welcoming you here!

When you arrive at the address, press the buzzer for Reception and you will be greeted by a member of the team. If you are here to use our co-working or meeting rooms on the third floor, please make the most of our meeting pods, phone booths, day beds and glorious terrace too!

Please note: We do provide tea/coffee facilities but try not to use plastic where we can avoid it, so we ask that our customers bring a reusable cup for tea/coffee and a bottle for water. We can provide mugs in Reception. There is a kitchenette with a microwave and boiling water on the third floor corridor.

What an amazing space, we used FBC last week for a training course. The training space was lovely and bright with everything we needed. The cafe team were amazing, so helpful and accommodating and made us a gorgeous fresh lunch both days - with the added benefit of being able to eat out on the roof terrace. The whole place has a really lovely vibe, relaxed and really welcoming. I’ll definitely recommend FBC.

FBC is a wonderful place to come into each day. Ian and the team genuinely look out for us - they are so supportive in wanting us to succeed. The team was helpful when we were customizing our office - helping us with the odd handy bits without hesitation. Our office gets incredible light throughout the day - the big windows are such a treat. The common spaces are wonderful as well - the roof deck has some of the most beautiful views of the London skyline and the caf on the 3rd floor serves up great coffees, smoothies, and food. Everyone who works at FBC is incredibly friendly and helpful.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • While storage in coworking spaces is generally limited, and mostly reserved for members with dedicated desks or private offices, you should always check with the coworking operator about additional storage solutions. Fill out the form on the right side of the page to reach out to them and learn all about the available options.

  • For spontaneous collaboration and interaction, open desks provide an open and flexible environment. If you prefer a dedicated space with shared community elements, dedicated desks offer a great balance between personal space and interaction.

    On the other hand, private offices are best suited for focused work and private interactions. They're ideal for solo workers as well as teams seeking a dedicated space, shielded from distractions.

    Choosing the ideal coworking arrangement for you is about aligning your workspace with your work style, team dynamics, and project requirements.

  • At FBC Clerkenwell, Meeting Rooms can be booked by the hour. For those looking for a workspace for an entire day, Day Passs and Meeting Rooms are also available.

  • Absolutely. Flexibility is one of the best parts of coworking. Most coworking memberships are month-to-month, so you can quickly adjust your space preferences according to your unique requirements and the size of your team. Whether that means upgrading the space or downsizing it or even completely changing the type of coworking subscription that you use, you always have the option to adjust as you go.

    It may be possible to adjust your membership before current membership ends, but you will have to discuss and negotiate directly with FBC Clerkenwell, who is more than happy to help out.

  • Most coworking space amenities are open to all members, regardless of the membership plan. Meeting rooms require prior reservation, and private offices are exclusively available to those with subscription packages. However, the lounge, kitchen, and breakout spaces are open to everyone. Complimentary amenities are also available to all, while ancillary services can be purchased or negotiated individually with FBC Clerkenwell.
