The Hive Cranbrook welcomes local charities, community groups and organisations to marvellous meeting spaces.
Local charity or not-for-profit community groups can meet in our coffee lounge free of charge. Or, they can book our meeting spaces and get the 1st hour for free.
We only ask that each person attending the meeting orders at least one drink. These can be hot or soft drinks, or a tipple from our licensed bar. You can also order food during the meeting, including simple snacks from the Hive, or Greek meze from Kypseli Greek Taverna, just two doors down.
