Engagement Party · 80 guests
Couldn’t have been a better venue. We booked the Huntsman and Hounds for our engagement party last weekend and it was truly perfect. The staff were incredible, exceptionally accommodating, helpful and overall fun to be around! We had nearly 80 guests and it was the perfect size, but can also see it working for smaller parties as well. Virtually every single person that attended mentioned how brilliant they thought the venue was. As with any party organising I was pretty anxious about it all, but The Huntsman and Hounds team could not have been better, they were on hand to help with everything and were sooo accommodating. Thank you, thank you!! The pub is beautifully designed, exceptionally clean and overall a really warm and welcoming atmosphere. The location was great, about a 10 minute walk from Elephant and Castle station so easy for everyone to get to and from. We were able to play our own music, and brought in food which was also a big plus. The drinks were well priced and their minimum spend structure makes booking out the pub entirely doable. I got my deposit back straight away! Truly can’t thank The Huntsman and Hounds team enough - they made it such a special night. It’s an awesome pub, with even better staff!! The only downside is that I don’t live closer to it because I’d be a regular for sure!! Highly highly recommend.

We had an engagement party here and hired out the pub. It's a lovely little venue with a great atmosphere for a party. The staff are absolute stars and went above and beyond. They helped coordinate things like the music, the pizzas we ordered on deliveroo and cake. I really cannot recommend this place enough for hosting a party, 12/10.

The incredible staff at the Huntsman & Hounds made our engagement party so so special, they were instantly on hand to help us set up when we arrived and gave a brilliant service all throughout the night. They asked us what music we wanted to have played and were extremely responsive to all our song requests, and even got a more dance-type vibe going later into the night when they turned on the disco lights and turned up the tunes! Everyone had such an amazing time and constantly sang the praises of the pub. It's such a lovely cute setting as well and the drinks are so good and great value! We will definitely recommend the Huntsman & Hounds to family and friends and will be returning for any future functions we have. Thankyou for a wonderful night!
