I cannot recommend this venue enough! I booked for my 30th birthday party and it was perfect! The staff were lovely and couldn’t be more helpful. Everyone commented on the room and how much they loved it. There was a small hiccup actually accessing the venue at the start but it was soon sorted.

Food was great, Kieran and the rest of the staff where really accommodating. Location is amazing.
It was difficult for my guests to access the venue before we opened the side door, but when we opened the side door, up until 8pm when there was security on the door we had to deal with people turning up who weren't part of the event trying to gain access.

I had an absolutely wonderful party, from the stunning venue to the friendly, professional staff (thank you Etienne for making such beautifully crafted cocktails!) - it was all perfect! Also great sound system. Would 100 percent recommend to anyone wanting a top class experience for a special occasion.

Venue was in an easy to access location and staff weee super helpful, and overall great for my event. So nice to have a fully private space with separate bar, toilets and entrance.
Would be great if the sound system worked a bit better but we found a back up option.
