Fantastic venue! Well organised, the barman in particular was very helpful. Delicious buffet and we were able to have a slideshow of photos and our own music, plus cake delivered.

We had a themed birthday party here, it is a good location, easy to get to, we were able to play our own music and run a film in the background. The decor is good and the staff were helpful and cheerful. I thought that for central London the minimum spend was reasonable, and there was a good range of beers on tap. I would recommend it as a private party venue.

The bar staff attended the night was very efficient and helpful with pleasant personality. The Platinum Buffet we ordered was very good. The guests enjoyed the party very much.
Only one minus point was that the floor was a bit sticky.
