Char, Esther and the team were fantastic. It was an absolute pleasure to work with the team and I'll be booking the venue for another corporate event. Everything was perfect and professional, no complaints from me at all. Great venue, I would highly recommend!
There was nothing I disliked the venue. Staff and facilities were perfect in every way, 10/10 from me, I'll be back!

About Balls Brothers Austin Friars

Balls Brothers Austin Friars is a large and spacious bar; quite the jack of all trades, being the perfect venue for business meetings, informal office parties or meals out with friends.

Exposed brick walls and ventilation ducts create an industrial charm which is counterpointed by cosy and welcoming squishy, brown leather sofas. Tucked away from the main hustle and bustle of the City of London, head here for a quiet lunch, after work nibbles or partying into the early hours of the morning thanks to its charming atmosphere and inherently British vibe.

Pop by to check the wonderful wine selection, sourced from some of the best regions around the world. Or choose to feast on their small but perfectly formed menu of tasty British dishes.
