About this space

The Library is a reflection of London’s history as a trading entrepôt, with the ceiling decked in an enormous vintage trading map taken from old travel books.

With a capacity for 32 seated and up to 35 standing, this room is the largest of the meeting spaces, and can be hired for private use, offering an informal setting for working lunches, laidback dinners or business meetings. For larger events or even more space, The Library and Drawing Room can be interconnected.

Meeting Offers

The Library is the Vintry & Mercer’s largest event space, the ideal setting for informal gatherings, business meetings and private dining. The space pays homage to its sister site, The Ampersand Hotel and features a ceiling navigation map taken from old travellers’ books.

Fantastic ambience and decor. The team were so lovely and accommodating from the get go. I would especially thank Rebecca and Daniel for being understanding and proactive on all the little details and requests. I would 100% host a party at Vintry and Mercer again as the quality was astounding and the prices were reasonable for the space, food and drink. Staff were attentive and on hand throughout the whole event and made sure all my guests were looked after. 5 stars!
