The Spitz was a music venue in the East End of London, at 109 Commercial Street on the edge of the Old Spitalfields Market. The venue operated from 1996 to 2007, and was forced to close in a dispute about rent. In 2014, a group of regular performers at the venue adopted the name of "The Spitz" for a charitable trust that, "takes professional musicians into care homes, day centres and hospitals across London."
