FAQs about Beer Gardens in City of London

How much does beer garden hire cost in the City of London?

The most common way of pricing beer garden venues in the Square Mile is minimum spend, which means you're not paying for using the space and simply spending the money on food and drinks at the venue! The majority of these venues charge between £500 and £3,000 minimum spend, but you can encounter outliers for as little as £25 or as much as £12,000! Food and drink packages tend to cost around £30-£100 per person. If you are looking for venues with flat hire fees, expect them to vary from £150 up to £3,500 per session. (All data from Tagvenue.)

Are there any large beer gardens available in the Square Mile?

There are! The City boasts an array of amazing beer garden venues of all sizes, from intimate spots to large spaces that can fit a crowd. Some of the best beer gardens with a big capacity in the area include the following:

  • North Terrace at Coq D’Argent near the major Bank underground station is a beautiful space that can fit up to 40 guests sitting or 100 standing.
  • Courtyard at Saddlers’ Hall near St. Paul’s Station creates a stunning oasis within the bustling financial district of London. It has a capacity of up to 200 people for a standing-style event.
  • Stationers’ Hall and Garden near St. Paul’s Station is an amazing choice for a mixed indoor and outdoor party. You’ll be able to host 205 people for a sit-down event or even 450 for a standing reception!

Is it possible to host a beer garden event in bad weather?

It is! While beer gardens are most popular for summer parties, many of them have facilities that allow you to celebrate even in the classic English weather. Some venues have overhead coverings, roofing, or patio umbrellas to cover their guests from rainfall and snowfall, as well as outdoor heaters that are brought out when it gets a little chilly. Another option is hiring a venue that has indoor space - this way your party can simply move inside if the weather becomes unbearable!

Booked Whole Venue at Swingers City
5.0
We hired the whole of the roof top terrace at Swingers City which meant exclusive access to one of the golf courses. Our clients had an incredible time and were really wowed by the venue. The event staff were so organised throughout the whole process and went out of their way to help us personalise our event. And the food was incredible! I cannot recommend highly enough.

Booked Burgundy at Balls Brothers Minster Court
5.0
A good size room which is also has removable walls to be more versatile. flexible with food, table arrangements and timings. There is a private bar available as well and is a great space for larger seated events (we had 25 which is a bit too large for most other venues) Responses are very quick and clearly have plenty of experience running events. Absolutely fantastic to work with - will definitely work with again!

The Bedouin tent itself was absolutely gorgeous and the calm setting in the courtyard was lovely, especially in the middle of the City of London. Nick himself was extremely helpful throughout and we all had a very special celebration. I would definitely recommend this venue to others. Thank you
