FAQs about Party Venues in Clerkenwell

What should I look for when selecting a party venue in Clerkenwell?

You should always check that the venue you choose will have all the proper amenities that you will need for your party. Of course your needs will differ, depending on the type of party you are planning. Some of the basic amenities include good catering and drinks, a dance floor, enough restrooms for all guests and parking spaces. You might also need a DJ or a live band, and some venues provide those as well. Make sure to check what permits the venue has–are they able to serve alcohol all night and at what hour must the party come to an end? You should also check what price packages the venue offers. Finally, you should decide if you’d rather pay for the whole evening, or, for example, agree on a minimum spend and hire the venue for free.

How to book cheap party venues in Clerkenwell?

You can try to book a cheap venue in a number of ways:

Check if the locale offers a BYOB option. Since you’re booking the venue for the night, you might be able to get some money off the alcohol. Beware of the corkage fee!
Negotiate the price. Always remember to chat with the manager or the host of the venue and see if you can get a discount. We recommend booking during weekdays and in the colder months–it’s usually a better option if you want to save some money!
You can try to book a minimum spend venue–in that case you’re not actually paying for venue hire, you just need to spend a certain amount of money inside the event space.

The staff at Coin Laundry made the whole day really special. From the run up to the day, Cara from ULG, helped us organise the day and Arthur was always super welcoming every time we visited! The food was outstanding and our guests are still raving about the quality. The day ran really smoothly thanks to CL. The staff was super flexible to ensure it all ran on time. Thank you!

We had a brilliant experience - the team were mega friendly and accomodating (i.e. the kitchen was closed by the time we got there, so they allowed us to order pizzas in). We also didnt have to pay any hire fee or minimum spend, just a refundable deposit. Could reccomend this place enough, thanks so much team!
