Great venue inside Glasgow Uni Union. Fit our theme very well. Staff were friendly. Everyone had a great time. Student Union prices on the bar! Didn’t expect the pizzas to be so good so we should have ordered more of them.
Told the photobooth would be use-able but it was out of paper so wouldn’t work. We told a few of the staff but nobody attempted to fix it or communicate it to us if they couldn’t fix it. Ran out of dark spiced rum at the bar very early in the night.
