30th Birthday Party · 100 guests
Great venue, perfect for our event but the highlight was the staff. We had amazing service from Rianne before the event and during. On the night we had great communication and friendly service from Satvik, Inez, Blanca, Sam and the rest of bar and security team. Nothing was too much, incredibly helpful and definitely made the event run better with their input.

I didn't personally buy a drink because I was rhe birthday boy but people have said the drinks was expensive. I downloaded the drinks menu pre party and didn't seem expensive om the menu comparing to what people where paying. But other than that everything was excellent. Roll on next year! We go again bigger and better

About Dreadnought Building
Built in 1764, Dreadnought was originally an Infirmary of the Royal Naval Hospital and continued to be a (space for healing) until its closure in 1986. From 1999, the building hosted a library for the University of Greenwich for 15 years.
After a multi-million-pound refurbishment, the Dreadnought building is the centre of the University of Greenwich since September 2018. The building features brand new teaching spaces alongside everything a student needs outside of lectures; refreshments, social spaces and information points. Dreadnought is brand-new and modern; however, its history can still be seen within.
Greenwich Students’ Union is proud to offer this space for hire, which includes meeting rooms, the Quad exhibition space and its underground bar, The Lower Deck.
Please note: this venue is used within a university and therefore may have some restrictions on availability. Weekends are available to book between October-May and Monday-Sunday bookings are available between June-September.
