  • "A genuinely brilliant new space for Rye. Even if you’re not a die-hard motoring fan, the way Aubrey Halls celebrates classic vehicles alongside great local food and drinks, and pop-up style events makes it a joy to visit. Thoughtful, welcoming, and a real destination."

    — Jane Brook, Rye Chamber of Commerce

  • "We currently have a vehicle in storage with Aubrey Halls and have been thoroughly impressed. The facilities are excellent, the care and attention to detail are exactly what you want for a valuable car, and communication throughout has been clear and professional. It’s reassuring to know the car is being stored by people who genuinely understand and respect classic vehicles. Highly recommended."

    — David Mason, Motoluxe

    — John Carver, Customer

  • "I LOVED Pilates and Porches at Aubrey Halls. It had such a lovely vibe, and I really felt the class's impact. It is so nice to have a local spot where you can have the full Pilates princess experience, complete with a delicious coffee afterwards. You really felt the building of community as everyone stayed after and chatted away."

    — Lara Raybone, Pilates Attendee

  • As a lover of classic cars, coffee and everything Ground Up do - I was super excited to see this new pop-up on my side of town. Coffee and treats are as incredible as always. All of the charm and warmth of the other locations, but you're sipping away sat next to that classic 911 you had posters of as a kid. See you next weekend!
