The Lighthouse and The Man From Earth come to mind. Probably even Reservoir Dogs.
Have not seen the Lighthouse, but I absolutely love the Man from Earth. Such a magical movie!
Not Reservoir Dogs. Most of the movie takes place in the warehouse, but there's also a scene in a diner, one on the streets, one that follows Orange before the heist, and probably some others too.
I understand why it's not perfectly fitting the requirement of the initial question, but I think it deserves an honorary mention. You are correct, quite a few scenes are flashbacks to before the warehouse main story of the movie. But to me it was fairly impressive back in the day how it was possible to create such a complex plot with the majority of the movie taking place in one location.
