About this space

The Butcher's Library is a moody alclave that mixes glamour and danger. With its dark wood and brass fittings, long marble table, and soft, subtle lighting, The Butcher's Library is a space that is both elegant and unsettling. A closer inspection will reveal images of the 1920s underworld, with cut-throat razors, cellared wines, and aging meat behind the surrounding glass.

This unique space is the perfect setting for a variety of events, from corporate meetings to private parties. The Butcher's Library can accommodate all guests, and we can customize the layout to fit your specific needs. We also offer a variety of catering options, so you can choose the perfect menu for your guests.

Whether you're looking for a space to conduct business or to celebrate a special occasion, The Butcher's Library is the perfect place for you.
