The 16 Best Baby Shower Venues for Hire in London

FAQs about Top Baby Shower Venues in London

How do I organise a memorable baby shower in London?

There are many ways to make your baby shower party memorable. For example, you can decorate the event space in a fun way or come up with engaging games for all the guests. You could also choose a venue with a unique theme—why not try a roaring '20s or hippie '70s vibe? There are plenty of great quirky baby shower venues for hire or, if you'd prefer to have full control over the decor, top-rated blank canvas event spaces.

Which kinds of venues for baby showers can I hire in London?

The venue that you pick for your baby shower highly depends on your personal preferences and what kind of atmosphere you’re going for. You can choose to have a classy party in a restaurant, or a relaxed one in a café. One of the most popular options is organising a tea party for your baby shower, since London has an abundance of afternoon tea venues!

How do I organise an affordable baby shower party in London?

Having a baby shower on a budget can be a challenge in London, but we have some tips and tricks up our sleeve. If your guest list is already as short as possible, but you’re still not fitting into your ideal price range, consider asking someone to co-host. There are venues that allow you to bring in your own drinks or dessert, which can lower the final cost. If you bring your own decorations and pre-prepared games, you can choose a blank canvas baby shower venue and decorate it yourself.

How much does it cost to hire a baby shower venue in London?

The cheapest event venues suitable for a small baby shower start at around £10. If you want to go for a minimum-spend venue, expect prices between £125- £2000 or more. Private baby shower venue hire costs will depend on the size of the space, proximity to the city centre, and the facilities included with the hire. (All data from Tagvenue.)

Your Guide to Hiring Baby Shower Venues in London

Your Guide to Hiring a Baby Shower Venue in London

Planning a baby shower in London is simple once you have the essentials in place. Start by deciding on two key numbers—your guest count and budget. London offers endless venue options for all budgets, from affordable local spaces you can decorate yourself to elegant hotels and gardens for a refined celebration. To save on costs, opt for a venue further from central London or explore community halls. And remember, early invitations give guests plenty of time to prepare!

Finding the Right Location

Most venues are in central London, but you’ll find charming spaces in quieter neighbourhoods too. Use venue maps to find options near family hubs, airports, or transport links for ease. Each venue listing on platforms like Tagvenue typically includes nearby public transit options to make travel planning a breeze.

Catering Options

You have flexibility regarding food. You can prepare it yourself, involve guests in a potluck, or hire a caterer. Many venues also offer in-house catering packages that simplify planning, especially for afternoon teas or custom menus that include dietary accommodations.

Create a Gift Registry

Before sending invites, set up a registry to avoid duplicate gifts. If you’re a friend or family member organising, consult the parents for a wishlist to ensure every gift is useful and unique.

Theme and Decor

Whether for a gender reveal or themed celebration, London’s venues adapt to any style. Think pastel florals for a classic look, or opt for a garden or royal theme with decor from local Covent Garden florists. Go eco-friendly by sourcing sustainable decorations or using locally grown flowers.

Baby Shower Activities

Add a memorable touch with games and activities! Try onesie painting as a keepsake, a baby photo guessing game for laughs, or gift bingo for added excitement as presents are unwrapped.

Tips for a Smooth Event

Book Early: London’s popular venues fill up fast, so reserve early to avoid disappointment!
Have a Weather Backup: With London’s unpredictable weather, you should have a Plan B in mind. Opt for venues with flexible indoor-outdoor spaces or arrange coverings and heaters to ensure comfort, rain or shine.
Local Flair: Add a London twist to the menu with mini fish and chips or afternoon tea treats. Add decor based on city landmarks or hire local entertainment to give your guests the full London experience!

Booked The Clubhouse at the Victoria at The Clubhouse at The Vic

4.9

Picture Perfect Venue & Stellar Service for a Baby Shower/ Gender Reveal mashup. Not only was it spacious enough for our 55 guests to mingle comfortably, but the entire place was absolutely gorgeous. We got tons of amazing photos and videos for Instagram and TikTok – our guests couldn't stop raving about the aesthetics. The owner truly went above and beyond to make our event a success. They generously allowed us early access for setup with our caterers and event stylist. Their willingness to help with both setup and cleanup was a huge lifesaver and took a massive weight off our shoulders. Overall, this venue provided the perfect blend of style, functionality, and exceptional service. We highly recommend it!

Booked The Bedouin Tent & Garden at St Ethelburga's Centre

4.8

Such a beautiful venue for my baby shower! So so pleased that I booked it in advance as there wasn’t many dates available. The bonus is the heating inside the tent as it got very cold and all my guests felt super cosy and didn’t want to leave. Very glad they allow external catering because this meant I could order food that was halal and set up to my wishes. Had a lot of people messaging me to ask about the venue after seeing my event pictures on social media. Nelson was extremely helpful and helped us with all the baby gifts and carried them to the main road. Thank you!

Booked Unique Baby Shower at Albert's at Beaufort House

I recently attended a baby shower at Albert's at Beaufort House, and I must say, it was an outstanding experience. The room and decoration were beautifully done, creating a warm and welcoming atmosphere that perfectly suited the occasion. The attention to detail in the decor added a touch of elegance to the event. The staff at Albert's were truly amazing. They were attentive, friendly, and went out of their way to ensure everyone's needs were met. From the moment we arrived until the end of the event, their exceptional service made the day even more special. As for the afternoon teas, they were nothing short of fantastic. The delicate sandwiches, freshly baked scones, and an array of sweet treats were a delight for the taste buds. It was evident that the food had been prepared with care and high-quality ingredients. Overall, the baby shower at Albert's at Beaufort House was a memorable and delightful experience. I would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a wonderful venue with exceptional service and delectable afternoon teas.

Booked Entire venue at The Oaks, Eltham

5.0

I had my baby shower and the Olive terrace. Firstly the interaction and information when booking was wonderful and it was wonderful to look at the venue before hand. On the day of the baby shower everything was set up wonderfully and the cleanliness was perfection. I want to say a massive thank you for the two members of staff that worked that day, they went above and beyond to make sure that everything was perfect for me and then to ensure that all my guests were happy. They really were a credit to the venue and I’m gutted I cannot remember their names to ensure they got the praise they deserve. Overall I would definitely recommend the olive terrace and the oaks overall to anyone and I’m sure I will be back for another celebration. Thank you!

Booked Green Room Suite at Holiday Inn London Whitechapel

5.0

I want to express a special thank you to the team who helped us organize a baby shower on the day of the celebration. The team was excellent and the service was outstanding. Very attentive staff and so professional. The catering was amazing, very good value for money and the guests really like the food. We had sandwiches, wraps, fries, Cesar salad, grit salad, rolls. It was exactly what we needed for a fairly small get together for a group of 12 people. We had access to sound system to play our music too. The staff laid out everything like tables and chairs too. Very good service, and I highly recommend this hotel for organising parties.

Booked Ground and Lower Living Rooms at The Living Room Place Furzedown Venue

5.0

The Managers of the venue are lovely and are great with communication. The venue is modern and has a fresh aesthetic look. I booked this venue for a baby shower for up to 25 guests and there was enough space. We used the downstairs area to host food and drinks as there is a kitchenette area. It had kettles, a microwave, small hob and oven. Upstairs we used for the games, there was enough space for all guests to be seated. We were able to bring our own decorations and a bonus there is a hanging track that can be use to hang decorations (no sticking of items on the wall). This worked great for our back drops. We could bring our own catering and drinks, which is a win!!! There is a WC with disabled access and you are provided with the necessary amenities. Great location for the venue especially as it has free parking on the road and side roads. It is a great space and very personable as you hire out the whole of the venue.

This place is absolutely beautiful. I arranged a baby shower to be held here and it was perfect. We had a room to ourselves downstairs, which was beautifully decorated with vintage furniture and clothing. The food was delicious and the staff were super friendly and helpful.
