n. (power lunch English)
Wikipedia
Power Lunches Arts Cafe was a music venue, rehearsal space, and creative hub located at 446 Kingsland Road in Dalston, a district of the London Borough of Hackney, from 2011 until 2015. It started out with gigs planned to be only at weekends, but later became a prominent feature of Hackney’s DIY music scene with gigs most nights every week.
The cafe hosted performances in its basement, the maximum capacity of which was 150. These were most often concerts by local bands, but also saw acts from elsewhere in the UK, as well as further afield. Artists to appear there included Empress Of, Ian Svenonius, Rolo Tomassi, Willis Earl Beal, White Lung, Maria Chavez, Verity Susman, Joanna Gruesome, Shopping, Milky Wimpshake, and The Spook School.
