Birthday Party · 45 guests
Loved the space, bar and the staff were super helpful. Pizza was pretty good and wedges were amazing.
It was advertised that there was a dance floor, but it wasn't really a dance area. At least we could dim the lights on that side of the room, so it turned out ok.

The Occidental was an amazing place for my 21st to be held. The bartender Christine was nothing short of wonderful and she makes an excellent Espresso Martini. Venue was spacious and the private bar was perfect. Communication with the function managers was good too! Although we were not situated in the Glenmore room, rather their other function room, they are very similar, just lack of cocktail style tables and dimmer lighting :)
Potential you may be redirected to their other function room that is below the Glenmore room.
Although we communicated through The Glenmore room, upon arrival we we're directed to the other function room.
