About Us

The Lower Deck is the best student bar in Greenwich.

We offer a high-quality service including great value food, drinks and entertainment in a unique basement venue within the Dreadnought building on the University of Greenwich campus. 

Built in 1764, Dreadnought was originally an Infirmary of the Royal Naval Hospital and continued to be a (space for healing) until its closure in 1986. From 1999, the building hosted a library for the University of Greenwich for 15 years.

A vessel’s lower deck was sometimes where sailors would live, eat, drink, and have a good time on their voyages across the sea.

Our 500-capacity venue offers a range of spaces available for hire. If you’re a member of the public, you can use us for anything from a small birthday party to a large formal event. Contact us to find out more and discuss your booking!
