Let us set the scene…

Voted 'Best Experience' in London 2019 by audiences of Design My Night, The Murdér Express presented by Funicular is an entirely unique proposition. Pedley Street Station is home to our solitary theatrical themed restaurant and bar located in East London where you can experience The Murdér Express and other shows that we produce in our railway arch venue. We create, script and host our events, bringing them to life and creating unforgettable experiences.

A real spectacle for all the senses, The Murdér Express takes our passengers on a journey of a lifetime, our guests can expect an utterly immersive experience in our themed restaurant where they can enjoy themed drinks, and a delicious 4 course meal designed by Master Chef finalist, Louisa Ellis.
