St. Lydia's

St. Lydia's offers its Gowanus storefront to outside groups for private events and gatherings. Located at 304 Bond Street in Brooklyn, the space is defined by exposed brick walls and a glass-fronted facade that draws in natural light from the street. The venue comfortably accommodates 30 guests for sit-down dinners, 45 for intimate performances, and up to 60 for standing cocktail receptions. A fully equipped kitchen — stocked with pots, pans, and multiple sinks — supports catered and food-forward events, while an outdoor deck extends the gathering space in warmer weather. The space has hosted weddings, baby showers, anniversary parties, pop-up shops, gallery exhibitions, film shoots, and community workshops. The venue is an 8-minute walk from the Union Street (R) station and a 6-minute walk from Carroll Street (F/G).
